A raid was conducted by Gollum and his Judge Claude Frollo over the planet Cybloc in 1983 against the InterGalactic Banking Clan.
==Prelude==
Gollum, a fallen Sith apprentice, resurfaced in December 1982 with the help of the Judge from France on Earth, Claude Frollo.. Gollum and Frollo committed various acts of violence and sabotage throughout the Outer Rim with the help of his new apprentice.
==The raid==
Seeking to acquire the finances, Gollum and Frollo infiltrated a space station of the InterGalactic Banking Clan in orbit of Cybloc. After cutting the power, the security droids on patrol went into full alert, scanning the permiter for intruders; unit SD-357 scouted the south passage, where it was thrown to the floor and impaled by Gollum, alerting the other droids. Gollum lifted the head security droid with the force while Frollo lifted two others, throwing them against the wall and destroying them, which was quickly followed by the destruction of the leader droid.
The two discovered a large sum of credits hidden inside of a vault in the main office chamber. While Frollo was entranced by their new apparent wealth, Gollum reminded him that it was only a means to an end in their cause: the Hobbits were hunting them, and they would be forced to defend themselves. Gollum sought to build an underworld backing, using the credits to hire soldiers. Gollum also asserted his authority as master over Frollo, citing specifically the master/apprentice format of the Sith Rule of Two. Frollo had hoped that as assassins the two would abandon the traditional Sith hierarchy; angrily, he challenged Gollum to combat. Gollum easily overcame him and pinned him to the floor with one of his bare hobbit legs, and the two quickly got back on terms. The two managed to escape by stealing Morlimur Snugg's ship.
==Aftermath==
The Jedi Masters Samwise Gamgee, Frodo Baggins and Adi Gallia were sent to Cybloc to investigate the strange attack. The warehouse supervisor of the station verified the identity of the assailants, albeit believing they were rogue Jedi. The supervisor explained that the two headed in the direction of the Sertar sector; Frodo and Sam naturally connected this with the planet Florrum, the headquarters of the Hondo Ohnaka pirate empire. Gollum and Frollo planned to use their wealth to sway the pirate army into joining their cause.
==Behind the scenes==
The raid on the Cybloc transfer station appeared in the first episode of the fifth season of The War of the Ring TV series; on the very first scenes of the episode. Before the episode was shown, Star Wars.com release the clip of the raid on the transfer station.
