- "If you get to the lower levels find a slave named Akkus. He's been bragging that he knows how to get access to the security areas. Tell him I sent you and find out if he's telling the truth."
- ―Noro Bok, to a spacer
Akkus Meik was a male individual who lived on Corellia during the Galactic Civil War. By the time following the Battle of Yavin, Meik was captured by the Corellian slavers and enslaved in the Corellian Slaver Bunker near Tyrena.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] a spacer infiltrated the bunker to find evidence of the slaver operations for the Corellian Security Force. Akkus Meik agreed to help the spacer to access to the detention areas of the bunker. Thanks to Meik's assistance, the spacer was able to explore all the areas of the bunker and eventually broadcasted the slavers' records on the CorSec emergency request channels.[1] Dozens of CorSec agents quickly moved to the slaver bunker and freed all the slaves.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Every possible depictions of Akkus Meik
Akkus Meik 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.[4] Akkus Meik was added to the game with the update named "Chapter 1: The Corellian Captives," published on June 8, 2006.[5]
Because Akkus Meik spawned under the generic "commoner" template, his appearance was randomly generated among 120 possible appearances. This included Humans, Twi'leks, Zabrak, Bothans, Mon Calamari, Aqualish, Bith, Rodians, and Trandoshans of either gender, and male Devaronians, Ishi Tib, Nikto, and Sullustans. However the quest dialogues identified him as a male.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "Incriminating Evidence" on Corellia
- ↑ 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.
