- "Hmm? Oh, it's probably nothing. I'm sure he was just careless. In any case, we must find Tomi Jinsin. Unfortunately, I do not have any record of where he might live. But I suspect there must be some connection with these Ragtags. Maybe if you put some pressure on those thugs, they'll reveal what they know about Tomi."

Tomi Jinsin was a Human male thug who lived on Corellia during the Galactic Civil War.
Biography[]
- "You'll find Ragtags outside of most Corellia cities and Coronet is no exception. They're usually loitering around on the outskirts of the city. If you find anything about Tomi or my missing shipment, please follow it through."
- ―Ral Mundi, to a spacer
By the time following the Battle of Yavin, Tomi Jinsin was a thug, member of the Ragtag gang. At some point, he also got an official job in Ral Mundi's Starship Emporium, a shipwright company in Coronet City.[2] In 1 ABY,[1] Jinsin used his position to allow the Ragtags to steal a large shipment of starship components. The robbery put the company on the verge of bankrupt, forcing Ral Mundi to requested intervention of the Corellian Security Force. CorSec Lieutenant Mack Jasper sent a spacer who finally discovered the truth about the missing shipment. Tomi Jinsin went into hiding in a bunker near Coronet but the spacer tracked him down there. Jinsin was killed while trying to resist to the spacer. From information found in Tomi Jinsin's datapad, the spacer was able to retrieve the missing shipment in the Coronet Capitol, along with a crate of illegal spice.[2] Further investigation of the CorSec about the shipment robbery and the smuggled spice would led to the discovery of a plot of the Rogue CorSec to overthrow the Diktat Daclif Gallamby himself.[3]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 According to its opening crawl, Star Wars Galaxies was set sometime after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The only precise time indication in the game was given by the character Ruwan Tokai, who referenced the destruction of the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin as occurring one year earlier, placing the game sometime around 1 ABY. Later, multiple elements confirmed the placement of the game storyline in 1 ABY. First, The Essential Reader's Companion established that the tie-in novel Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine took place in 1 ABY. Furthermore, the game expansion Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees was set during the Blockade of Kashyyyk, one year after the Battle of Yavin according to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Additionally, the main scenario of The Nightsister's Revenge from the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game was set over a year before the Battle of Hoth (3 ABY), so around 1.5 ABY. Finally, the reference book Strongholds of Resistance placed the events of Star Wars Galaxies's Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" one year after the Battle of Yavin. Of note, Galaxies's Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" introduced the Battle of Hoth in the game. However, the developers were quite clear that this was only intended to be a completely isolated "Star Wars Moment" without any effect on continuity for the rest of the game.
