Sullust

"What of the reports of the Rebel fleet massing near Sullust?''" "''It is of no concern."

- Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine

Sullust was a planet of the galaxy that was home to the Sullustan species. During the Clone Wars, it hosted a battle between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Years later, the Alliance to Restore the Republic used the planet as the staging area for its fleet prior to the Battle of Endor.

Description
Sullust was a barren, obsidian world of lava streams and turquoise lakes. Native fauna such as ash angels foraged during the day and returned to nest at night, while rockrenders and sullustan worms prowled the planets underground. Native Sullustans lived in vast, underground cities and commuted to work by lifts and speeders which carried them to the factories on the planets surface, alternating between day and night shifts. The SoroSuub Corporation employed roughly half the population of Sullust.

Behind the scenes
Sullust's appearance in Star Wars Battlefront is based on Iceland. DICE’s Audio Director Ben Minto recorded various sounds in Iceland, including bubbling mud pools, shrimp and cod grunts; or huge steel guy-wires from the Longwave radio mast Hellissandur.
