"They didn't catch me. It's only cheating if they notice you doing it."

Biography

"You know how it is -- scare some children with a couple of realistic remote-control spider-droids, and stories start spreading. Jaleela Bindoo may know about art, but toss a couple of fake dead spiders in front of her and she loses all reason."
―Zeelius Kraymunder, to a spacer[1]

After the Battle of Yavin, Zeelius Kraymunder resided in city of Narmle, on Naboo's moon of Rori.[1]

In 1 ABY,[2] Kraymunder convinced Jaleela Bindoo, the organizer of the Narmle Arts Gala, that a nest of hermit spiders threatened the upcoming gala. Terrified by spiders, Bindoo accepted to fund Kraymunder to eliminate the creatures. The crook then hired a spacer to kill a hermit spider and collect the carcass. Zeelius Kraymunder later pretended that the spacer killed at least fifty spiders with a thermal detonator and brought back the dead queen.[1]

Later the same year, Zeelius Kraymunder paid the same spacer to rescue his sabacc partner from infuriated card players who had caught him cheating.[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.
