Description[]

Toprawa was a remote terrestrial planet located in a sparsely populated portion of the Outer Rim Territories that was not rich in resources.^[3] The planet also lay within the New Territories region^[2] and was situated in grid square P-5 of the Standard Galactic Grid.^[1] Toprawa was close to the planet Serenno^[5] and connected to the celestial bodies known as Junction and Pho Ph'eah by the Hydian Way hyperspace route.^[1]

A lush forest world,^[3] Toprawa appeared light and dark green in color from space.^[6] The planet orbited a sun and had multiple moons.^[3]

History[]

While Toprawa was affected by criminal syndicates and cartels, the planet avoided significant attention from the Galactic Republic and later the forces of its successor, the Galactic Empire, due to the world's remoteness, which also allowed Toprawa to say away from the Galactic Civil War between the Empire and the Rebel Alliance.^[3] By the time of the war, diehard survival enthusiasts from Toprawa designed the weapon known as the 'aKraB clip-point vibrodagger, whose function was to allow an individual to make close-quarters precision kills on large animals by slipping in between their armor plates.^[7]

During the Imperial Era, the Empire maintained a research station on Toprawa concerned with upgrading the performance of Imperial fighters and developing a type of laser allegedly for mining operations.^[3]

Inhabitants[]

Toprawa was the homeworld of the human rebel pilot Sila Kott, who perished during the Battle of Endor^[4] in 4 ABY.^[8]

Locations[]

To honor Sila Kott's contribution to liberating the galaxy, a flight school in her name was built at Toprawa.^[4]
