- ―Eyan McDermitt, to a spy
Jubai Laetlii was a Human male commando who lived during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, Laetlii was stationed at the Imperial Oasis, on the planet Tatooine.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Jubai Laetlii bought a datapad with sensitive information stolen from the Incom Corporation to the pirate Eyan McDermitt. However, a spy working for Sarlis Beni also tried to recover the datapad and traced Jubai Laetlii to the Imperial Oasis. The spy just planned to steal the datapad instead of trying to confront Laetlii directly, and finally succeeded in robing the datapad from Jubai unnoticed.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Jubai Laetlii was a non-player character 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.[3] Jubai Laetlii was added to the game upon the release of the "Publish 25", a.k.a. the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.[4]
In the game, players could choose to kill Jubai to retrieve the datapad, or steal it from him peacefully. This article assume that Jubai was not killed, as it was the recommended course of action in the game.[1]

- ↑ 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.
