"I'm a tired bounty hunter and my patience is lacking. I've been so consumed with killing the Tuskens that I've been left empty, exhausted. But I must destroy them... it is my destiny."
―Vi'conya T'ili, to a spacer[1]

Vi'conya T'ili was a female Human bounty hunter who lived on Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War.

Biography

"It's a painful subject, but if you must know: the Tuskens destroyed my family and I have brought it upon myself to rid Tatooine of their worthless existence."
―Vi'conya T'ili, to a spacer[1]

Vi'conya T'ili was native to the planet Tatooine. Prior to the Battle of Yavin, her family was killed by the Tusken Raiders. She remained deeply traumatized by the loss of her family and vowed to rid Tatooine of the Tuskens.[1]

In 1 ABY,[2] Vi'conya T'ili resided in the Imperial capital on Tatooine named Bestine. While there, she encountered a spacer. At first, she was suspicious of the spacer, and even accused the individual of allying with the Tuskens. However, her suspicions and threatening remarks subsided when she learned that the spacer was actually interested in eliminating some Tuskens. She then offered the spacer the whereabouts of two locations on Tatooine, including Fort Tusken, and the Tusken Village in the Western Dune Sea.[1]

  2. The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
