Biography[]
- "Now that you've destroyed all that ryll, I guess I tell you where he is. It's not like he won't already be fuming. Vuul has a camp outside of town."
- ―Jaylon Geissler, to a spacer
By the time following the Battle of Yavin, Jaylon Geissler was the right-hand of Vuul Sarlin, the leader of a group of spice dealers in the city of Kor Vella. Geissler managed a warehouse in Kor Vella that was used to stock the ryll distributed in the city. The spice was provided by the Chirq Council, best known as the Red Circle Gang, but Vuul Sarlin, Jaylon Geissler and their men ignored everything about the identity of the ryll smugglers.[1]
In 1 ABY,[2] the Corellian Security Force started an investigation against the ryll smuggling ring following the increase of spice traffic in Kor Vella. A spacer working for Lieutenant Cope questioned a local spice addict known as Menchi Lerann. The man revealed that he bought his ryll from Vuul Sarlin and Jaylon Geissler. The spacer later interrogated Geissler but the spice dealer obviously refused to collaborate. The spacer therefore entered the ryll warehouse in Kor Vella, fought the guards and started to destroy crates of spice. Jaylon Geissler reluctantly accepted to give Vuul Sarlin's current location: a small camp in the plains outside Kor Vella. The spacer then defeated Vuul Sarlin and forced him to reveal everything he knew about the ryll smuggling ring.[1] The CorSec investigation eventually led to the disbandment of the Chirq Council.[3]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "CorSec Case Files: Ryll Smuggling Ring" 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.
