"I've arranged for you to go help a local farmer named Pol Handerin. He's having some trouble on his farm."

Biography[]

"Oh, hello. You must be the one Lt. Jasper was saying would come to help me. Boy, I sure hope you're able to. My farm is really beginning to suffer."
―Pol Handerin, to a spacer[1]

Pol Handerin lived in a farm on the outskirts of Coronet City during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, the farmer got into serious trouble because of wild creatures and bandits that plagued his farm. Handerin thus went to seek help from the Corellian Security Force.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] CorSec Lieutenant Mack Jasper dispatched a recruit to help the farmer. Pol Handerin first tasked the CorSec agent to hunt and eliminate a pack of enraged carrion spats that did a lot of damage. The CorSec agent succeed and even killed the pack leader Gravefeather. Handerin then asked the CorSec agent to deal with a group of criminals, the Nedgarr Bandits, who damaged crops and stole grain. The mission was once again successful. The CorSec agent managed to recover the stolen grain and eliminate several bandits, including their leader Trae Nedgarr, during an assault on the Nedgarr Bandits Hideout. Handerin was really thankful for the help he received and that solved all his problems. When the CorSec agent mentioned his will to work for the government, Pol Handerin eagerly proposed to introduce the CorSec agent to his cousin, Gallura Handerin, a government aide in the Coronet Capitol.[1]

  1. ↑ 1.00 1.01 1.02 1.03 1.04 1.05 1.06 1.07 1.08 1.09 1.10 1.11 Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Quest: "Help Farmer Pol Handerin" on Corellia
  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.
