- "Riding a speeder bike is the only thing I know how to do and I gotta do something."
- ―Sul Prine
Sul Prine was a male Human speeder bike racer who lived on the core world Talus during the time of the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, he owned a house near the city of Dearic.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] the technology-hating Meatlump gang smashed several speeder bikes that were parked outside his house. He had known of them on Corellia, but had never run into any on Talus before. Prine knew it was them because he found one of their typical jackets left behind and a map to one of their camps. When Vani Korr, a reporter with the Corellia Times who was investigating the Meatlumps learned of this attack, she asked an adventurer to look into it for her. Prine talked to the adventurer and gave the spacer the map he had found. Prine hoped that the adventurer would make them pay for the destroyed speeder bikes. The spacer did good use of the map and managed to find the location of the Meatlump Camps on Talus. The adventurer eventually attacked the camp, killing some Meatlumps in the process.[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.
