>>>we add a new piece to our
chronology section.
chronological eras has been added to
reflect del reys decision to add a sixth era to the official
timeline, the legacy era |
|
 |
|
Legacy - 37+ ABY |
| This is the era
of Luke Skywalker's legacy: the Jedi Master has unified the
order into a cohesive group of powerful Jedi Knights. However,
as this era begins, planetary interests threaten to disrupt
this time of relative peace and Luke is plagued by visions of
an approaching darkness. |
|
|
|
now you can compare the six official eras
with the twenty-one Lightsabre eras, seeing how they fit together,
overlap and merge. go to
chronological eras
and take a history lesson. |

>>>we continue to spotlight selected
characters from the Lightsabre archives. today we feature the
commander of setnin's famous x-wing fighter squadron and
former field agent of glann cipple, terrie saffra... |
|
terrie saffra |
|
|
Born on the world of Carlin, Terrie left her homeworld and
her younger sister
Aisha to travel the stars.
Eventually she wound up in the employ of
Setnin Sector ganglord
Glann Cipple and worked as a deep cover field agent,
scoping out Cipples enemies and gathering information on them.
Eventually she was picked out to join
Jan Lomona on the mission to
Abrogard where they encountered the daughter of the dead
ganglord Dessio D’Staan.
Despite their attraction Lomona and Saffra didn’t see each
other for seven years.
During the meantime Saffra helped set up links between the
D’Staan and Cipple operations. Returning to Setnin, Cipple had her
infiltrate the Rebel
Alliance, and whilst there she impressed enough superiors
to offer her a commission in the newly formed elite
Squadron Indigo. Feeling that it was the right thing to
do she quit her position with Cipple and concentrated on her
military career.
Eventually she rose through the ranks as I-Leader, leading the X-Wing squadron an impressive victory
over the remnants of the
Empire at Varoone
to command Squadron Indigo.
Forthright and opinionated Terrie entered into a relationship
with Jan Lomona after their mission to Maquina, freeing rebel POW’s held
captive for twelve years.
During Lomonas ten year disappearance she began a new
relationship with fellow Squadron Indigo member
Aaron Styrus.
She met Lomona again after a decade as she took Squadron
Indigo from the side of the Galactic Alliance to the Setnin Defence Force during the
Ki-Ki/Setnin War, and
worked closely with both Jan’s
Trac-Tran Transit Company and the
Iron Claw Mercenary unit.
Determined to make a difference in the conflict, she fought for Setnin
– and also for Jan.

>>>news from celebration 3 and the
george lucas talk. it seems that the new television series,
which is about two years away, will be set between revenge of the sith
and a new hope, and that lucas wants an entire season of scripts
written before the first scene is shot, a'la young indiana jones
chronicles, which arrives soon on dvd. rick mccallum also
stated that the plan is to produce 100 episodes of this new series, making
in all probability an initial five season run. also, there seem to
be plans to continue the relationship with the
cartoon network, possibly with
half-hour 3-d shows. and, dependant upon the success of the first
series, lucas has stated that there is the potential to do other series
set outside the timeframe of the six episode saga, so we may see the
knights of the old republic after all. |
|
>>>another interesting piece of news
has come our way from celebration 3, news of a new series titled
legacy of the force. spanning an era known as the
legacy era, this will feature stories set mainly in the outlands, with
events of planetary interest that threaten peace and show luke's visions
of approaching darkness. covering a two to three year span of time, most
of the characters will be in their sixties, making this new series
approximately 40 years after a new hope - or for regular
Lightsabre readers, right at the end of the ki-ki/setnin war
and the finale of setnin's twenty-first era, the new underworld age. |
|
>>>author troy denning will be
bringing a novel to the shelves soon - dark lord: the rise of darth
vader, set between revenge of the sith and a new hope,

>>>we continue to spotlight selected
characters from the Lightsabre archives. today we feature one
of the most feared assassins in the mid-rim and scourge of the
setnin sector underworld, carlonian feese... |
|
carlonian feese |
|
|
Mon Calamarian assassin
and one of Duze
Jostenns deadliest employees.
Feese built his fearsome reputation over a number of years and was the
assassin who executed
Jostenn after switching
his allegiance to
Glann Cipple, the new ruler
of the underworld.
Hiding his scarred features with a matt-black iron facemask,
injuries the result of a run in with the
Empire, the mystique surrounding the man increased with
the passing of time. Flying his starship the Deadman’s Dream, he was fiercely independent, loyal to Cipple and
detested working with other agents - his dislike of Goah Galletti and Jan
Lomona being well documented.
Feese was regularly to be found in physical confrontations with the two
men, especially Galletti.
Their feud culminated in a fight aboard the Deadman’s Dream over the city of Amagad, moments before the Heed smashed into the ocean and
levelled the city.
Leaving the Setnin Sector behind, Feese
accompanied Glann Cipple after his betrayal of his agents to
the Empire, returning to the sector under
the dark force influence of
Arcc Nedeen.
Allowing himself to be cloned, Feese was believed dead, shot
down and executed by Luschia Arkensaw, the owner of the Euphoria Station. In fact, many clones survived. Usually to be found in deep cover, or
tailing his prey through darkened streets, Feese was just the
kind of man that Glann Cipple wished he had a hundred of – and
later did. Feese returned during the Ki-Ki/Setnin War, wreaking havoc
and operating to his own twisted agenda. |

>>>we continue to spotlight selected
characters from the Lightsabre archives. today we feature the
setnin sectors most successful smuggler, former governor of ecaps city
and free trader, jan lomona... |
|
jan lomona |
|
|
The
Setnin Sectors most prominent and successful
smuggler and free trader, child of Narn Giapa
and Sieera Cetting Lomona. The youngest of three
brothers, Lomona had a strict upbringing on the Imperial
loyal world of A-desando. As a child he built
swoops and was a Souper Swooper, and along with his
childhood
Trandoshan friend Treesk he built a handful of
race winning swoops for their own Wezzwen race team.
After the premature death of his older brother Luude
and his eldest brother Hijjins move into the
A-desandian military, Jan left home age sixteen in his first
starship the Trooper, soon finding work in the
employment of Jabba the Hutt and Glann Cipple.
Carving out a name for himself in the Trooper, the Crusader
and later his beloved Berone Sunrise, Lomona became a
prominent name in the Setnin underworld, managing to
keep ahead of his major adversary, Dressels prime
smuggler Petrol Merritch. Always with his droids
Troopie and Aurran by his side his reputation grew.
Jan became engaged to his childhood sweetheart Frans Latka
and was tracked down by Paige Retgarr, the fourteen
year old daughter he never knew he had at the same time he
first met Terrie Saffra, an employee of Cipple who
would leave a lasting mark on him. Returning home to
A-desando to take up a brief tenure as governor of Ecaps
City, Jan and Goah Galletti unwisely double-crossed
Jabba the Hutt, forcing them to leave the Setnin Sector for an
extended period of six months, returning just prior to the
Hutts death. After attending the wedding of Paige to his best
friend Ryath Centaur he was lost believed dead when
Ryaths ship the Thunderchild exploded in hyperspace and
he was flung in an escape pod to the other side of the galaxy,
deliberately taking a decade to work his way back. He
returned to become a major trading operator with the
Trac-Tran Transit Company and through the Ki-Ki
invasion helped repel Ki-Ki forces, once again with Terrie
Saffra, now a commander in Squadron Indigo, by his
side. Having used various aliases including that of the
unfortunate Joel St John, able to get by in nine
languages, owner of the Ghtroc Freighter the
Dangerous Curve and ex-manager of the Heavy Jizz Wailer
band The Berones, Lomona was an influential figure
during the Ki-Ki/Setnin War and despite his new
responsibilities continued to make his living free trading
through the stars. |

>>>we continue to spotlight selected
characters from the Lightsabre archives. today we feature
both the real trefnarian smuggler as well as his legendary clone, the
lethal assassin and employee of glann cipple, goah galletti... |
|
goah galletti |
|
|
Galletti,
Goah Clone - Created using technology that Glann Cipple had in his
possession for many years, since his time with Dressel, D’Staan and Riger, the clone Galletti worked for Cipple and replaced the
real Galletti who had relocated to the Core Worlds. Stronger, faster and more ruthless, the
clone carried DNA from the dreaded
Coryarthanax. After proving himself with his first job on Trefnare he moved swiftly from smuggler work to
assassinations.
The two men met for a brief time on the ice planet
Hoth, with neither of them truly believing what they had
seen. Moving up the ranks of the Cipple
organisation the clone Galletti was soon a feared agent and
alongside Carlonian Feese orchestrated many of
Cipples successes.
This continued for almost a decade until the Galletti clone
succumbed to clone madness, detonating a pack of explosives after an ambush by
a squadron of
Stormtroopers, a situation
orchestrated by Cipple in order to bring the real Goah
Galletti back to the sector. |
|
Galletti, Goah Real – Third born child of Drate and Gres
Portacio-Galletti.
Living in the town of
Negarde with his brother’s
Hindley, Boah, Brush and his sister
Weale Goah had a decent upbringing until the arrival of
the Empire and its
invasion of Trefnare. Fleeing in two starships, the Galletti
family escaped their homeworld – only for the starship Wooden Doll carrying his parents and younger sister Weale to crash
into an asteroid on the outskirts of the system. Goah stayed
with his brother Hindley for a while until he decided to make
a life for himself and journeyed to
Arrarat, where he was employed as a load-lifter.
Here he met Tref Goodman and the two of them moved to Cantarr Bi Romou, enjoying a blissful, albeit brief marriage.
It was here that ISD Malevolent Captain Terrov took a
fancy to Tref, and using his position of authority had Tref
abducted and taken to his quarters.
When she resisted his advances he had her killed.
Devastated, Galletti remained on Cantarr Bi Romou for a while,
eventually leaving and travelling to
Amagad where he gained employment with
Glann Cipple.
Partnered with the Chinngardian Mactin Selka, Galletti was soon making a name for himself as a
competent smuggler.
Much happened to Galletti over the next few years – he swapped
his starship the Galaxion with Hindleys ship the Phoenix and then lost his brother
Hindley to the Empire as well as doing jobs for
Jabba the Hutt. But it was Glann Cipples interest in cloning
and genetics that would change Galletti’s life drastically. After offering Goah 100,000 credits for
a sample of his DNA, no questions asked, Cipple posted Goah to
the Core Worlds and replaced him with a
clone. The real
Goah sent regular information reports back to Glann for almost
a decade, occasionally travelling back under the guise of
Mister Heeks, until in one of his last acts as
leader of the Setnin Sector underworld before his seven-year sojourn from the sector,
Cipple recalled the real Galletti from the Core Worlds. But it was to be an unfulfilling return to
the Setnin Sector, one that lasted for a few short years
before Galletti travelled back to the Core Worlds with his new
love Toni Meera, telling only his brothers Brush, Boah and his friends
Jan Lomona and Luschia Arkensaw. A
friend of Jan and Ryath Centaur, the real Goah Galletti
had little chance of re-integrating himself into the life that
his defective clone had left behind.
Galletti died in the Core Worlds of natural causes during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion just prior to the Ki-Ki invasion of the Setnin
Sector, leaving behind his wife and teenage son Drate. |
