The Quilan system was a star system that was located within the Roche sector, a part of the galaxy's Mid Rim region.[1] The system was the origin point of the Quilan Pyradex[2][3] artifacts, which were created[4] some time before the year 3639 BBY.[5] At least one Quilan Pyradex had come to rest on the planet Tatooine[2] by 85 BBY.[6]

Behind the scenes

The Quilan system was first mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace, which placed the system in grid square Q-8.[7]

(backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Quilan Pyradex in relation to the Quilan system.

  5. According to SWTOR mini Forums: Dear Story Team, What Year Are We Currently In? on The Old Republic's official website (backup link), Star Wars: The Old Republic: Rise of the Hutt Cartel takes place from early to mid 3638 BBY, and further Game Updates that were released in 2013 take place in the latter half of that year. The post also states that Game Updates released in 2014 can be placed in early and mid 3637 BBY, Shadow of Revan takes place near the end of that year, and that the events of Game Updates 3.1 through 3.3 can be placed in early and mid 3636 BBY. Therefore, the events of Game Update 2.0 and the Digital Expansion Rise of the Hutt Cartel can be placed in 3638 BBY.
