Rainchrome was a substance that could be used to make prosthetics.[1] By 228 BBY,[2] a specialist had at least one model of prosthetic hand created from the material.[1] That year,[2] the physicist Xylan Graf brought the specialist to the San Tekka manor's library on the planet Coruscant, and she displayed the polished rainchrome technology to Graf's husband, Cair San Tekka, as the latter had not yet replaced his cybernetic hand after losing his last one. However, when San Tekka firmly indicated that he did not wish for help in selecting new prosthetics, the specialist packed her wares and left.[1]

- ↑ 2.0 2.1 Star Wars: Timelines dates Starlight Beacon's destruction to 230 BBY. The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic: Temptation of the Force takes place one year and six weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon and its events span a few months, its events must be set in 228 BBY.
