History[]
- "There's a bunch of Binayre pirates just around the corner who have a real nice place. If you take them out, anything you find is yours."
- ―A commoner, to a spacer
The bunker was originally a camp used by law enforcement forces. By the time of the Battle of Yavin, it had become the base of operations of the Binayre Pirates,[3] a band of pirates and smugglers that operated within the Corellian sector.[2] Beyond this base on Talus, the pirates also had headquarters on Tralus, both in the Corellian system.[2] The Binayre Pirate turned the bunker into a stronghold.[1]
In 1 ABY,[4] a commoner in the city of Dearic provided the coordinates of the Binayre Pirate Bunker to a spacer brave enough to visit it.[3]
The same year, Jabba the Hutt's bounty hunter Bronell dispatched a spacer to the pirate bunker in order to retrieve information about a CorSec officer who owned money to Jabba, as well as to the pirates.[5]

- ↑ According to its opening crawl, Star Wars Galaxies was set sometime after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The only precise time indication in the game was given by the character Ruwan Tokai, who referenced the destruction of the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin as occurring one year earlier, placing the game sometime around 1 ABY. Later, multiple elements confirmed the placement of the game storyline in 1 ABY. First, The Essential Reader's Companion established that the tie-in novel Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine took place in 1 ABY. Furthermore, the game expansion Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees was set during the Blockade of Kashyyyk, one year after the Battle of Yavin according to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Additionally, the main scenario of The Nightsister's Revenge from the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game was set over a year before the Battle of Hoth (3 ABY), so around 1.5 ABY. Finally, the reference book Strongholds of Resistance placed the events of Star Wars Galaxies's Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" one year after the Battle of Yavin. Of note, Galaxies's Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" introduced the Battle of Hoth in the game. However, the developers were quite clear that this was only intended to be a completely isolated "Star Wars Moment" without any effect on continuity for the rest of the game.
