Onyx Cinder

Canon Linked from 76 articles

The Onyx Cinder was a Galactic Republic starship utilized for credit ingot transportation from a Republic mint. At some point, it was stolen by the notorious pirate Tak Rennod. Based in Skull Ridge Mountain on the planet Lanupa, Rennod ruled the spacelanes for years, and ultimately used the ship to bypass the Barrier of the mint planet At Attin, but the mission resulted in the death of the entire crew after a mutiny and the Cinder became buried in a forest. The only surviving crew member was the droid SM-33.

In 9 ABY, a youngling named Wim discovered it and, together with three other children Neel, Fern and KB, investigated the ship, in the process accidentally activating its engines and hyperdrive and jumped into hyperspace. The group of kids then forged an alliance with SM-33 and a Force-sensitive man called Jod Na Nawood to find their way back home and avoid a band of pirates led by Captain Brutus.
