"I figure if my buddy Mot doesn't go talk to this O'choa girl, I should go give it a shot. I mean look at her, she's beautiful!"
―Bun'Del[1]

Mot Draken was a male Bith who lived during the Galactic Civil War. Prior to the Battle of Yavin, he visited Tansarii Point Station, a space station located near the planet Ord Mantell, in the Bright Jewel system. While there, he fell deeply in love with O'choa Detera, a dancer performing in the station's cantina and decided to remain on the station. Two years later,[1] In 1 ABY,[2] he was still living on the station but never had the courage to talk to Detera and share his feelings. A baffling attempt at impressing the dancer was stuffing his mouth with Flurr-Cle onions. Then, O'choa Detera finally understood why Draken was spending so much time in the cantina but she instead had a crush on Bun'Del, one of Mot's friends.[1]

  2. According to its opening crawl, Star Wars Galaxies was set sometime after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The only precise time indication in the game was given by the character Ruwan Tokai, who referenced the destruction of the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin as occurring one year earlier, placing the game sometime around 1 ABY. Later, multiple elements confirmed the placement of the game storyline in 1 ABY. First, The Essential Reader's Companion established that the tie-in novel Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine took place in 1 ABY. Furthermore, the game expansion Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees was set during the Blockade of Kashyyyk, one year after the Battle of Yavin according to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Additionally, the main scenario of The Nightsister's Revenge from the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game was set over a year before the Battle of Hoth (3 ABY), so around 1.5 ABY. Finally, the reference book Strongholds of Resistance placed the events of Star Wars Galaxies's Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" one year after the Battle of Yavin. Of note, Galaxies's Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" introduced the Battle of Hoth in the game. However, the developers were quite clear that this was only intended to be a completely isolated "Star Wars Moment" without any effect on continuity for the rest of the game.
