Synth-smoke

Synth-smoke was a type of smoke. Around 381 BBY,"A Closed Fist Has No Claws" establishes that Marda Ro visited Dantooine around a year after taking possession of the Gaze Electric, an event that Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia dates to 382 BBY. Therefore, Ro's trip to Dantooine must have occurred around 381 BBY. the gas was present in a public house on the planet Dantooine, where its presence in the air created a haze that appeared brown under the public house's neon lights. During that time, Marda Ro—the Evereni founder of a pirate group who would eventually become the Nihil—visited the public house to quest for others of herThe High Republic: Temptation of the Force species and saw the smoke.
Ro later mentioned synth-smoke in a journal entry she recorded for her descendants while recounting her visit to Dantooine. By 252 BBY,"The Lie" chapter in The High Republic: Eye of the Storm 1, which includes Shalla Ro's death, features Asgar Ro's ascension to Eye of the Nihil, an event dated to 252 BBY by Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia. As The High Republic: Temptation of the Force establishes she introduced Marchion Ro to Marda Ro's journal, he must have listened to it by that year. during his youth, Ro's great-great-grandson Marchion Ro had listened to her journal, including the message where synth-smoke was mentioned.
