Biography[]
- "Do you have a security beacon from Stonewall Labs?"
"Yes. Yes I do. Well, no actually I don't. I buried it. I was hoping it would grow into a beacon tree. So far, nothing, but I haven't given up hope. It's only been a few years. I still think it'll sprout into something." - ―A spacer and Kippy Martin
Kippy Martin took up residence on the Mid Rim world of Naboo. By the time of the Battle of Yavin, she worked as a security officer at Stonewall Labs, along with Walker Luskeske, under the orders of the Security Chief Vance Groten. However, she had to quit after falling off a speeder while reaching close to top speed. Kippy was not badly hurt, but she was never the same since the accident.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Kippy Martin stayed at a camp in the Gallo Mountains near Dee'ja Peak. While there, she was pestered by a swarm of starving flewts. A spacer who was looking for a security beacon from Stonewall Labs accepted to kill the creatures to help her.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "Find a Security Beacon" 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.
