Athok Dinvar was a Human male criminal who lived on Naboo during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, he resided in the city of Keren, along with his boss, Kritus Morven.[1] The latter has a strong rivalry with the Hutt crime lord Borvo.[2] In 1 ABY,[3] Dinvar hired a spacer to carry several illegal tasks, leading to numerous fights with Borvo's henchmen and the Royal Naboo Security Forces. These missions included the killing of one of Borvo's thug to recover spice belonging to "Mr. Morven", escorting a slicer who was attacked by Borvo's men and protecting a thug named thug Turnik'otta against RSF security guards.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Athok Dinvar was a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[4]
Athok Dinvar could be found in the city of Keren on Naboo where he originally gave four completable missions to players. However, these quests were bugged and lacked any text dialogue strings, rendering it impossible to have derived much context from them.[1][5] For this reason, these quests were deactivated by the developers relatively early in the game's lifespan. Athok Dinvar remained in Keren, but would only tell players who interacted with him that he did not have time for them.[6]

Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Static Quest: "Athok Dinvar" on Naboo
- ↑ Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Static Quest: "Kritus Morven" on Naboo
- ↑ 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.
