Mygeeto/Legends

Mygeeto was a wealthy InterGalactic Banking Clan colony between Ord Biniir and Morishim under control of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Geographic features
Since the planet was locked in an ice age, giant crystallized glaciation and ice covered its surface. Because of this, Mygeeto means "gem" in the ancient trade language of the Muuns. Mygeeto's internal fires long since cooled and had left a huge deposit of precious stones within its crust and mantle. The immense assets of nova crystals and fields of lasing crystals made Mygeeto one of the wealthiest worlds in the galaxy. The planet's ice shelves were also home to huge deadly worms.

The few cities on Mygeeto were sunken into the crystalline surface. These cities drew power by synthesizing certain crystals and were built around large capacitor towers that stored and distributed the valuable energy. These cities were used for administrating the surrounding crystal mines though they also contained vaults which were used by the InterGalactic Banking Clan.

History
The lemuroid sapient Mygeetans were indigenous to Mygeeto. When the Muun controlled InterGalactic Banking Clan discovered Mygeeto, the native Mygeetans were enslaved.

Due to easily mined formations of naturally-occurring, high-quality crystals present on the planet, the InterGalactic Banking Clan guarded Mygeeto with a fleet of warships including the Munificent-class Star Frigates. As a result, access by rivals to the planet was difficult. Even if intruders had bypassed the blockade, they were faced with the harsh, frozen surface of the planet itself.

The Jedi had always wanted to explore the planet because of the large supply of natural crystals suitable for lightsaber construction.

The InterGalactic Banking Clan also constructed several cities in Mygeeto. These cities were used for administrating the surrounding crystal mines though they also contained vaults which were used by the Banking Clan to store its treasures. During the Clone Wars, Mygeeto became a valuable member of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and was as a result named by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine as part of a "triad of evil", alongside Felucia and Saleucami.



Later, General Ki-Adi-Mundi led the Republic assault on the world along with Commander Bacara and the elite Galactic Marines. The planet would be the site of many horrific battles during the Clone Wars. By the conclusion of the battle, the vast cityscape lay in burning, ash-filled ruins. The hot ashes mixed with Mygeeto's ice crystals to cover the battlegrounds in sleet and snow. Later, Ki-Adi-Mundi's forces were reinforced by troopers from the 501st Legion sent by Palpatine himself. Officially, the 501st Legion had been sent to destroy a droid energy collector though in reality they were searching for an experimental power source that Palpatine required for a top-secret tributary laser-stream project code-named Hammertong.

Towards the end of the battle, Commander Bacara received Order 66 and killed Ki-Adi-Mundi.

Galactic Civil War
During the Galactic Civil War, Mygeeto fell into the hands of the Rebel Alliance. Darth Vader led a contingent of TIE Fighters to the planet to put down the uprising.
