The pirate group known as the Sanyassan Marauders, hailing from the Sanyassan culture, experienced a forced landing on Endor in the year 100 BBY. They formed an alliance with Charal, a Nightsister who found herself similarly marooned on the same world. Terak, styled as a King, established his own dominion on Endor, situating it in proximity to Bright Tree Village, and repeatedly sought a vessel to facilitate the departure of himself and his followers from Endor.
