Semako Thalien was a business magnate who lived during the Mandalorian Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Mandalorian warrior culture. Thalien and a number of other wealthy businesspeople were aboard a refugee transport fleeing raiders when they crash-landed on the previously undiscovered planet of Makeb. Thalien assumed a leadership role among the survivors as they established settlements and made contact with the rest of the galaxy, leading them in developing a thriving economy based on Makeb's rich mineral deposits within the next fifty years.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Semako Thalien was first mentioned in the Codex entry "History of Makeb" in Rise of the Hutt Cartel, the 2013 digital expansion to the 2011 BioWare video game, Star Wars: The Old Republic.[1] Semako shares a surname with another character from the Mandalorian Wars, Jervo Thalien, who was created by John Jackson Miller for the 2006 comic series Knights of the Old Republic,[2] but no relation between the two was ever established.[1]
