- "Bank and roll, Hok! Shields damaged!"
- ―Timar Daragon during the Battle of Kirrek[src]
Timar Daragon was a female Human starship operator during the years leading up to the Great Hyperspace War. Daragon was the wife of Hok Daragon and the mother of Gav and Jori Daragon, and during the Unification Wars of the Koros system worked as a supply runner with her husband in their ship, the Shadow Runner. In 5,000 BBY the Daragons took a mission to the planet of Kirrek during the midst of a battle. During the run, the Shadow Runner was destroyed by pirate forces, killing both of the Daragons instantly. After their deaths, the Daragons' other ship, the Starbreaker 12, was bequeathed to Gav and Jori, who would become hyperspace explorers.

[edit] Biography
- "Too dangerous, kids."
- ―Timar Daragon, refusing her children's request to accompany him to Kirrek[src]
Timar Daragon, a Human female, was married to Hok Daragon, and had two children, Gav and Jori Daragon. In 5,000 BBY during the First Unification Wars in the Koros system, where a political leader named Teta attempted to unify the seven worlds of the Koros system, the Daragons worked as supply runners to Teta's forces in their ship, the Shadow Runner. During the Wars, Teta's forces managed to unify six of the Koros system's seven worlds in mutual commerce and aid. The only planet in the system yet to be unified with the others was Kirrek, where the company of Tetan soldiers were surrounded and besieged by rebels and pirates. The Daragons went to Aarrba the Hutt, who ran a service dock in the Koros system capital of Cinnagar, to get the Shadow Runner spaceworthy so as to bring relief supplies to the soldiers on Kirrek. The Daragons were grateful for Aarrba's services, and in exchange the Hutt decided to keep the Daragons' other ship, the Starbreaker 12, as collateral until they returned. Although Gav and Jori asked Timar and Hok if they could assist them on their mission, both she and Hok believed that their upcoming mission was too dangerous, so Gav and Jori were forced to stay behind.[1]
Meanwhile on Kirrek, the battle continued, with the Tetan forces now led by two Jedi, Memit Nadill and Odan-Urr. Using an exotic Force power known as battle meditation, the Jedi were able to demoralize the pirate forces and lift the spirits of the Tetan fighters. Desperate, the pirates began to fire on the weakest targets, hoping to eliminate as many as they can before they were defeated. The Shadow Runner reached Kirrek soon afterward, and were quickly attacked by the pirate gun turrets. The Daragons decided to fly in low and fast and drop their cargo, but the Shadow Runner's evasive action was hindered by the cargo. Caught in a crossfire, the Shadow Runner was destroyed, killing both of the Daragons instantly. The Tetan forces ultimately won the battle, and Teta succeeded in unifying the whole of the Koros system. After the Daragons' death, Aarrba gave Gav and Jori the Starbreaker 12, and the two vowed to honor their parents by exploring the galaxy.[1] This proved to be a pivotal moment in galactic history; Gav and Jori would eventually take a blind hyperspace jump and discover the Sith, sparking the Great Hyperspace War.[2]
[edit] Personality and traits
Timar Daragon was a daring individual, accepting a very dangerous mission to Kirrek while knowing full well of the risks, but quickly panicked when attacked by the pirates. Daragon cared greatly for her children and was mindful of their safety, refusing to allow them to accompany her and Hok to Kirrek on the grounds that it was too dangerous. Both she and Hok were considered skilled pilots by their children.[1]
[edit] Behind the scenes
Timar Daragon made her first and only appearance in Tales of the Jedi: The Golden Age of the Sith 0: Conquest and Unification. In 2008, she and her husband Hok would get an entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia.
