Biography[]
- "I have three bounties on Lok I haven't had a chance to collect. You take care of them for me, and I'll split the bounty with you."
- ―Bossk, to a spacer
After the Battle of Yavin, the disbarred droid engineer Sardeya Elgrin lived on the planet Lok.[2] She inhabited a cave located in the heart of a volcano, the Mount Chaolt. There, she performed lawless experiments that would not allowed on any of the more civilized worlds,[4] experimenting to improve the droid lethal capacities.[3]
In 1 ABY,[1] the outcast Andria E'liyha tried to convince a spacer to attack the cave in order to kill the insane engineer and remove insanity from Lok.[5] Later, the Trandoshan bounty hunters Bossk and Balfur Jhcor discovered the presence of Sardeya Elgrin on Lok. Bossk proposed to a spacer encountered on Corellia to split the bounty. The adventurer therefore traveled to Lok and tracked the engineer to the cave. The spacer attacked Sardeya Elgrin and finally killed her.[2]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies 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.
