Bimmiel/Legends

Bimmiel was a planet in an elliptical orbit around its primary star in the MZX33291 system. The fifth planet in the system, it was named after Bimmiel, the Imperial scout who found it. As the planet neared the sun, its ice caps melted, triggering an increase in moisture and plant growth. The heat brought the native shwpi out of hibernation to multiply. Since the carnivorous slashrats could not adapt to the heat, they retreated to the polar regions of the planet.

When the planet got farther from the sun, its ice caps refroze, and the shwpi come into the food chain of the slashrats, returning to the equatorial regions. The slashrats brought the number of shwpi back to a manageable number.

At some time during the period of the Galactic Republic, Jedi were present on the world. In 25 BBY, Yuuzhan Vong scouts established a spy post on the planet on the orders of Zho Krazhmir.
