Mako Ghast with the other leaders of the Lok Revenants.
After the Battle of Yavin, Mako Ghast was a member of the Lok Revenants and a lieutenant of their leader Nym. He used to work in Nym's palace, in the city known as Nym's Stronghold.[1]
In 1 ABY,[3] Ghast was involved in most major operations of the Lok Revenants.[1][4][2] That year, the Lok Revenants assaulted the hideout of their enemies, the Sulfur Lake Pirates, to retrieve the valuable memory module of an Imperial droid.[5] Mako Ghast tasked a spacer involved in this mission to kill a dangerous creature known as the Bridge Troll that guarded the pirate hideout.[1] The same year, the Lok Revenants raided an Imperial mine where the release of an unknown toxic gas had made the miners become completely crazy and very hostile.[6] Ghast requested the spacer to eliminate two miners, Raynar Cath and Wes Riggers, who were notorious opponents of Nym.[4] Later, the Revenants attacked an Imperial research facility on Lok to steal experimental weapons developed and produced there.[7] This time, Mako Ghast asked the spacer to kill four of the mercenaries who defended the facility, Kendo Ryzak, Platt Pareja, Goll Bardok, Jeran Tarven, because they had meddled in the affairs of Nym.[2]

- ↑ 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.
