- "These fools are a small price to pay for the battle droids who will let me destroy the Gen'dai."
- ―Kandhar betrays his men
Kandhar was a Devaronian male pirate who led a faction of the White Maw, a pirate gang based on Hoth. During the Battle of Hoth at the start of the Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire, he allied with the Empire in an attempt to take over the White Maw.
Biography[]
The Devaronian male Kandhar was a member of the White Maw, a pirate gang based on the ice planet Hoth. By[2] the year 3642 BBY,[1] he led his own group in the White Maw, and was the rival of the Weequay Shai Tenna, another White Maw pirate. By that year, Kandhar had made an alliance with the reconstituted Sith Empire. In return for their help in ousting the White Maw's Gen'Dai leaders, Kandhar and his men would work for the Empire. Through his alliance with the Empire, Kandhar also received cold-weather droids, which pleased the Gen'Dai, and angered Shai Tenna.[2]
In 3642 BBY,[1] Kandhar and some of his men—Risold, Feldon, and Halrii—met with Imperial commander Tarkus in the Tromper Crags mineral mine on Hoth. Tarkus informed him that the Imperial admiral known as the Voidwolf had agreed to the terms of the deal. However, the meeting was interrupted by a Republic smuggler sent by Shai Tenna. The smuggler revealed to Khandar's pirates that his deal would bring them under the Empire's control, and they revolted. In the ensuing skirmish, Kandhar and the Imperials were killed.[2]

STAR WARS: The Old Republic - Question ! :) - Page 3 on The Old Republic's official website (backup link) places Star Wars: The Old Republic's base game content about ten to twelve years after the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, which is dated to 3653 BBY by Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia. The Prologue and Act I of the class storylines are assumed to take place in 3643 BBY, as they are roughly concurrent to each other and the Jedi Knight Act I storyline is dated to 3643 BBY by The Old Republic — The Lost Suns 2. Additionally, Forums: Dear Story Team, What Year Are We Currently In? on The Old Republic's official website (backup link) and Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia establish that the Battle of Ilum and the end of Act III for the class stories occur in 3640 BBY. Additionally, Act II for all classes, while featuring conflict between the two factions, occurs prior to the official collapse of the Treaty of Coruscant, which The Old Republic: Annihilation places in the middle of 3641 BBY. Taken together, this means that base game content spans from 3643 BBY to 3640 BBY, and the class storylines extend over this period, this article assumes that Act II takes place within 3642 BBY and the first half of 3641 BBY. The events on Hoth for the Smuggler class, including the encounter with Kandhar and his subsequent death, take place in Act II and can therefore be placed around 3642 BBY.
