Shadda

Shadda was a star located in the Shadda-Bi-Boran system. Eons before the Battle of Yavin, Shadda expanded into a red giant, releasing gases that created the Shadda Nebula. After millenia, it cooled into a white dwarf during a long drawn out explosion. As the star faded, so did the natives of Shadda-Bi-Boran. Without the life-giving radiation of their star, the species, despite great efforts by the Refugee Relief Movement, dwindled into extinction.
