Knag

"My children... they'll take over the facility, and kill those Stormtroopers... then Teraud will have to admit that I am smarter than he is... that I am the one that will one day rule!"

- Doctor Knag

Knag was a Human male doctor who worked for the Galactic Empire during the time of the Galactic Civil War. By the time following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, Doctor Knag was posted as a researcher at the Warren, a top-secret Imperial Research Facility on the planet Dantooine. During his time at the Warren, Knag and many other research scientists went rogue, and supported Colonel Bors Teraud's ambitions to overthrow Galactic Emperor Palpatine by creating an army of loyal cyborg followers. However, this attempted coup was foiled by a dutiful citizen who infiltrated the Warren, killed Doctor Knag, and submitted evidence of Colonel Teraud's treachery to the Imperial authorities.

"...this one will probably make a lovely cyborg..."

- Doctor Knag

A Human male doctor by the name of Knag served the Galactic Empire during the time of the Galactic Civil War. By the time following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, Doctor Knag conducted research at the Warren, a top-secret Imperial Research Facility in the Rielig Steppes region of the Outer Rim world of Dantooine. Colonel Bors Teraud served as both the Warren's commanding officer, and as Doctor Knag's superior. In addition to Knag, Colonel Teraud oversaw command of many other research scientists, stormtroopers, and Imperial officers. With this sizeable number of followers, the megalomaniacal Colonel believed it possible to overthrow Galactic Emperor Palpatine and subvert his control over the entire galaxy.

- Doctor Knag, when he succeeds in defeating the player in combat

Doctor Knag was a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. Players who accepted the Warren quest could encounter Knag inside the Imperial Research Facility on the planet Dantooine. However, Knag's inclusion was only incidental to the actual quest. Killing him was optional, and it was possible for players to avoid encountering Knag altogether. However, this article assumes 100% game completion.

The game's directory tree files reveal Knag's full name to be Knag Garhun, but the last name of Garhun was never mentioned in the actual game. Therefore, the last name of Garhun is ambiguously canon within the Legends continuity.
