[edit] History

The ship became a target for the eco-terrorist group Green Forge, who attempted to blow it up as well as have Rhoden assassinated for his insurance money. The plot took place under the guise of an attack by pressure pirates, who coincidentally, were attacking the ship at that precise time.

Despite being torn apart by the pirates' Fastlatch-class security droids, Aurorient Express was saved by Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, only to be destroyed by a core bomb left active by disgruntled employees.

[edit] Behind the scenes

The Aurorient Express was presumably named for the Orient Express.
