Skitterflies were a type of fly.[1] In 228 BBY,[2] Jedi Master Porter Engle pursued the Nihil Minister of Protection Abediah Viess to the world Isolt, intending to end her life. When she inquired about him detonating half of her base on Isolt, Engle mentally considered whether he should ask her a question in return or continue trying to trap her via violence like a skitterfly in a glass box.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
In the current Star Wars canon, skitterflies were mentioned in the 2024 novel Temptation of the Force, written by Tessa Gratton and published as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's[1] Phase III.[3] Skitterflies originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where they were first introduced in Galaxy Guide 12: Aliens — Enemies and Allies, a 1995 sourcebook written for West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[4]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 The High Republic: Temptation of the Force
- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates Starlight Beacon's destruction to 230 BBY. The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic: Temptation of the Force takes place one year and six weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon and its events span a few months, its events must be set in 228 BBY.
