- "The word around the stronghold is that the local Sulfur Lake Pirates have a pretty nasty beast under their control. I want you to travel to their hideout and take it down."
- ―Mako Ghast
The Bridge Troll was a male gurk that lived on the planet Lok during the Galactic Civil War. The beast was trained by the Sulfur Lake Pirates to guard their hideout after the Battle of Yavin.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] the Lok Revenants, enemies of the Sulfur Lake Pirates, raided the Sulfur Lake Pirate Hideout in order to retrieve the memory module of an Imperial droid.[3] During the assault, a spacer working for an underling of Nym's named Mako Ghast attacked and killed the Bridge Troll.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Quest: "Kill the Bridge Troll" on Lok
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 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.
