Sullust System
Contains the planet Sullust. This system is between the Ottega System in this Sector and the Kimm 2 System in the Senex Sector.
Sullust
Sullust is a volcanic world in the Sullust system, which is located between Yetoom and Ithor. The planet, covered with thick clouds of hot, barely-breathable gasses, is habitable (for most species) only in its vast networks of underground caves. In these caves the native Sullustans have built beautiful underground cities, which serve as tourist draws for many other galactic citizens. Piringiisi is one popular resort spot on the planet, known for its hot springs and caustic green mud. The amiable Sullustans are highly valued as pilots and navigators, due to a Sullustan's instinctive ability to remember any path he or she has traveled. The massive SoroSuub (or SoroSub) Corporation is based on Sullust and employs nearly half the population in its mining, energy, packaging, and production divisions. Sullustan exports include injecto-kit shoes, prefabricated room units, and plastic corneal replacements, and SoroSuub once manufactured
Dragon battle armor for the Sullustan military. The Sullustans have established a permanent system Home Guard navy to protect their shipping from pirates and criminals. Drutash grubs are
considered a Sullustan delicacy.Despite the Rebel sympathies of many Sullustans, the SoroSuub Corporation dissolved the
Sullustan government, seized control of the planet, and declared its allegiance to the Empire. After being forced out of the Sullust system by the Imperials, Councilor Sian Tevv brought Nien
Nunb's private raiding squad into Alliance service. Prior to the Battle of Yavin, after the Alliance rescued a Sullustan leader kidnapped by the Empire, the Sullustans seemed to join the Alliance. However, it was not until late in the war when the leaders of Sullust finally held a vote and decided to officially secede from the Empire. The Alliance fleet assembled near Sullust just prior to the Battle of Endor. Nien Nunb's sister Aril Nunb later served as the Executive Officer for Rogue Squadron.
Sulon
The moon of the planet Sullust. It is primarily given over to agriculture. Alliance Agent Kyle Katarn was from Sulon. His father was an agriculture machine salesman and mechanic in a small rural community. While Katarn was at the Imperial Academy, the Empire raided Sulon and killed his family, though they claimed the deaths were the result of rebel terrorists.
