Qella System
Contains the dead planet Qella.

Aruza
A peaceful forested planet with five colorful moons. Native Aruzans are small gentle people with blue skin, dark blue hair, and rounded heads. They keep neural jacks, called Attanni, beneath their ears to feel the emotions of others. They are tech-empathic and share a limited group mind. Imperial General Sinik Kritkeen was ordered to "reeducate" the population and turn them into a fighting force for the Empire. Prior to the Battle of Hoth, the bounty hunter Dengar came to Aruza and assassinated Kritkeen, after which he escaped with the Aruzan woman Manaroo, whom he later married.

N'oka Brath
The Qella name for the star that the planet Qella orbits. It is also known as Jerph Qella.

Qella
A dead planet in the Qella System. It is also known as Maltha Obex and as Brath Qella. This planet, is the homeworld of the Qella and their ancestors, the Ahra Naffi. It is known to the Qella as the Homestone, or the Place of Beginning. Orbiting the star N'oka Brath, it has a thick atmosphere, and is located near an asteroid belt. It has two natural satellites. The planet was discovered by the Old Republic's Third General Survey, some 158 years before the Yevethan Purge. By the time the Third General Survey team was able to return home, identify those worlds worth exploring, and return with an exploration crew, the planet had been almost completely glaciated. The planet's ecology appeared to have been destroyed when a series of asteroids impacted the surface. Brath Qella was forgotten by the Republic, but was later rediscovered by the Tobek, who named the world Maltha Obex. It remained under Tobek jurisdiction until the New Republic began searching for the Teljkon vagabond. The unusual ship was linked with the Qella due to the ship's use of the Qella genetic code as a code signal. Kroddok Stopa and Josala Krenn were dispatched from the Obroan Institute to explore the planet for information on the Qella, but were killed in an avalanche before additional help could arrive. The Qella kept an incredible panoramic display of the system aboard the Teljkon vagabond, in a room known as the Reflection of Essential Infinities. The room, it was discovered, was a depiction of the Qella system as it was before it was destroyed. This led to the discovery that one of Brath Qella's moons had a wildly-elliptic orbit. The Qella recognized that it was bound to impact the other moon at some point, and built the vagabond as an escape vehicle. When the cataclysm did come, the resulting debris from both moons showered Brath Qella with asteroid-sized rocks. The planet's ecosystem was plunged into a premature ice age, while the Qella fled in the vagabond. When the vagabond eventually returned to Brath Qella - then called Maltha Obex by the Tobek - it began the long process of thawing out the planet and making it habitable for the Qella once again.

Ultar Qella
