Pirates of Iridium

The Pirates of Iridium were a group of bloodthirsty thieves who roamed the Galaxy's spaceways, preying on hapless spice haulers and freighters during the Old Republic. Utilizing their shield-penetrating power gems, the bandits would plunder any ships coming through the Atrivis Sector.

Between 25 and 22 BBY, the Jedi Order took it upon themselves to rid the Republic of this threat, and launched a campaign to destroy the marauders, led by Kit Fisto. By the start of the Clone Wars, the Pirates of Iridium were but a mystery&mdash;save for Raskar, who quietly retired in the Outer Rim.
