Biography[]
- "There's a serious medical situation on Naboo. A family that is living in the relative wilderness of Naboo has been attacked by a number of feral creatures. Several of the family members need tending."
- ―Billingsly, to a medic
The Zaprin Estate on Naboo.
After the Battle of Yavin, Jowres Zaprin lived at the remote Zaprin Estate in the Gallo Mountains on Naboo with his father Larence, his mother and his sister Mia.[1]
In 1 ABY,[2] a group of sick narglatches and motts surrounded the Zaprin's home. Jowres and his sister Mia went outside to check the situation but were attacked by the crazed animals. Both were wounded by the animals and developed a severe infection. His worried father sent an urgent call for help and soon a medic sent by the 2-1B droid Billingsly arrived at the Zaprin Estate. The medic first tried to help Mia, but the treatment didn't work. So the medic single-handedly killed several of the feral creatures that surrounded the house. From blood samples extracted from the creatures' bodies, the medic was able to create an anti-toxin. After an injection with the new medicine, Jowres and Mia recovered from the infection within a week.[1]

Possible depictions of Jowres Zaprin.
Jowres Zaprin 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.[3] Jowres Zaprin was added to the game upon the release of the "Publish 25," a.k.a. the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.[4]
Jowres Zaprin could be found in a remote building in the Nabooian Gallo Mountains south-east of the Lake Retreat. He was part of the quest "House Call" for players of the Medic profession. During each server reset, Jowres Zaprin's appearance was randomized, but he consistently appeared as a male Human.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Medic Quest: "House Call" 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.
