Biography[]
- "The quarantine zone is a restricted area, citizen."
- ―Lieutenant Liam Waurie, to a spacer
In 1 ABY,[2] an accident took place in the Imperial Research and Prison Facility on the planet Dathomir. The Blackwing virus that was studied there escaped containment and decimated hundreds of beings, turning them into starving undead creatures. In response, the Galactic Empire promptly established a Quarantine Zone to contain the infection.[3] Lieutenant Waurie was deployed on Dathomir where he was in charge of the contingent of stormtroopers that guarded the entrance to the Quarantine Zone.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Quest: "Get Inoculated" on Dathomir
- ↑ 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.
