Wyle Artis

Edit

"Well...Inaldra doesn't really want me up there hunting. She says that I will...damage something. I'm a little clumsy with a blaster."
―Wyle Artis, to a spacer[1]

Wyle Artis was a male Sullustan amateur hunter who lived during the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, he resided on Tansarii Point Station, a space station located above Ord Mantell, in the Bright Jewel system.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] he met a spacer whom he hired to hunt flits and scyks in Tansarii Point Station's atrium. Artis was enthusiastic about hunting but not particularly skilled at it. He was also very clumsy, which was why he felt he couldn't take on the creatures himself and hired help. Nevertheless, he pretended to have previously hunted and killed a Corellian sand panther and even a krayt dragon. Wyle Artis later used the flit feathers and the scyk teeth to make a necklace for his wife. As a reward he presented the spacer with a hunting necklace plus a small amount of credits.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

Notes and references[]

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 1.8 Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Quest: "A Small Hunting Trip" on Tansarii Point Station
  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.
