HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Antar 4, the legendary birth place of the Antarian Rangers had seen a very chequered and tragic past. Now under the umbrella of the Order of the Silver Jedi, the Antarian Rangers have reclaimed their home and history.
The Quivry Ranger Training base, also known as Heartbreak Hotel by recruits, enlisted and officers that pass through it, now stands as one of the bases that specialise in training rangers to the highest skill set and abilities. Training they receive range from basic to highly specialised in areas of combat, exploration, reconnaissance, weaponry, patrol, and environmental survival. The base runs with high efficiency, proves accommodation for all personnel and infrastructure for training.
Although the main Head Quarters of the Antarian Rangers is situated on Kashyyyk, Command commissioned Quivry Base to be established to provide a secondary base in a new environment, with new conditions in which the ranger would be tested to the limit and training in isolation. Rangers are trained to be able to survive in harsh conditions, to be able to sustain themselves with food and water when under siege for a long period of time. On completion of training, rangers either return to their units or join one.
