Firepath can be described as a board game of the classical game variety. The protocol droid known as 0-0-0 had greater experience with Firepath compared to Dejarik. This became relevant when Krrsantan, a Wookiee, proposed a game of Dejarik to the droid while they were both aboard the Ark Angel during the year 0 ABY.
The initial mention of Firepath within canon occurred in "Rogue's Gambit," a narrative crafted by Kieron Gillen. This story was included in [A New Legacy 1], a Marvel Comic released in 2025. The original appearance of Firepath was in "Dark Lord's Conscience," a tale penned by Alan Moore and published as part of The Empire Strikes Back Monthly 155 in 1982.
