- " There's a serious medical situation on Naboo. A family that is living in the relative wilderness of Naboo has been attacked by a number of feral creatures. Several of the family members need tending."
- ―Billingsly, to a medic
The Zaprin Estate was the home of the Zaprin family on the planet Naboo during the Galactic Civil War.
Description
Larence Zaprin in the main room.
The Zaprin Estate was built at the foot of the Gallo Mountains, near the edge of the Lianorm Swamp, many kilometers southeast of the Lake Retreat.[1]
It was a two-story building of typical Nabooian design. Through a small foyer, one entered the house's main room. Stairs led up to the second floor where a gallery supported by pillars circled the room. The walls were decorated with various paintings showing landscapes of Tatooine and other planets. One door in the main room led to an adjoining smaller room, while the other door led to the stairs to Mia's room in the basement. The room on the second floor was occupied by Jowres.[1]
Another nearby building was the Mountain poacher bunker.[2]
History
- "My son Jowres and daughter Mia were attacked by those beasts outside. Both of them are sick and need medical attention!"
- ―Larence Zaprin, to a medic
In 1 ABY,[3] a group of sick narglatches and motts surrounded the Zaprin's home. The siblings Mia and Jowres were attacked when they left the house and became seriously ill. After an urgent call for help by their father Larence, a medic sent by the 2-1B droid Billingsly traveled to the Zaprin Estate to help the siblings. The medic killed several of the feral creatures surrounding the house to extract blood samples and create an anti-toxin that cured the siblings.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Zaprin Estate was a location in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[4] The Zaprin Estate was added to the game upon the release of the "Publish 25," a.k.a. the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.[5]
The Zaprin Estate could be found near the mountains south-east of the Lake Retreat. Players of the Medic profession were sent to this location during the quest "House Call."[1] The building was of a typical style of houses called "Medium Naboo House" which were used all over the planets Naboo and Rori in Star Wars Galaxies. It was also available to players, who could use such buildings as their own virtual homes.[6]

- ↑ 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.
