Nerf was the designation applied to a specific exoboar, one of several offspring of Sparky, a sizable exoboar cared for by the Ravagers pirate group on the planet of Rishi during the [Galactic War] and around the time of the Battle of Rishi. Ruugar, the Ravagers' previous head, contracted outsiders to assault the Ravagers' headquarters in Coratanni Town to kill Coratanni, his disloyal second-in-command; these outsiders ultimately killed Nerf, Sparky, and the other exoboars from Sparky's litter that were guarding the town's entrance.
Nerf is featured as one of more than twelve individually-named exoboars that engage players during the Sparky encounter in "The Ravagers," an Operation introduced to the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic within the 2014 Digital Expansion Star Wars: The Old Republic: Shadow of Revan.
