Dragon Lords

The Dragon Lords were a group of people on the planet Drexel who lived together with the massive native species of aquatic lizards known as the sea-dragons. The Dragon Lords originated with a band of ship-wreckers who fled to the Drexel system after running afoul of Galactic Republic law. The wreckers thrived on Drexel's watery surface, but a group of technicians eventually rebelled against the leadership of the wreckers' Governor, sympathizing with the sea-dragons that constantly waged war against the newcomers.

Although the uprising was put down and the ringleaders exiled, the castoffs found safe haven with the dragons, devising a way to communicate with them through sound waves and joining forces against the wreckers. The ensuing war lasted a generation, coming to a head in 0 ABY. With the dragons' existence threatened by the wreckers' sonic jammer, the Dragon Lords and their sea-dragon allies launched their biggest ever attack on their enemies. With the help of Rebel hero Han Solo, the ruthless Governor Quarg was cast down and the wreckers were defeated, paving the way for the Dragon Lords to take control of Drexel.
