- "Apologize? APOLOGIZE! Aiieeeeee! That's not good enough, he must DIE!"
- ―Vermon Skeetz, about Akers Radch
Vermon Skeetz was mentally ill but managed to be fine as long as he took his medication. By the time following the Battle of Yavin, Vermon was captured by the Corellian slavers and enslaved in the Corellian Slaver Bunker near Tyrena. During his captivity, he befriended with a man named Akers Radch.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Vermon Skeetz finally managed to escape the bunker with a group of slaves led by Kyran Silene. The escaped slaves did not reach Tyrena and established a camp in the wilderness. However, Vermon lost his medicine during his escape and therefore experienced a psychotic episode.[1] A spacer recruited by Kyran Silene's wife later arrived at the camp.[3] The spacer planed to infiltrate the bunker to find evidence of the slaver operations for the Corellian Security Force.[4] The spacer also met in the camp a crazy Vermon Skeetz who was ordering to assassinate Akers Radch. Once in the bunker, the spacer met Akers and the man helped to retrieve Vermon's medicine.[1] The spacer finally broadcasted the slavers' records on the CorSec emergency request channels,[4] leading dozens of CorSec agents to quickly move to the slaver bunker and free all the slaves.[5] After he escapaded the bunker, Akers brought the medicine to Vermon who quickly recovered from his crisis and apologized for his aggressive behavior.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "Petty Resolve" on Corellia
- ↑ 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.
