Naos III

Naos III was a frigid moon in the Outer Rim Territories, near the Tion Cluster and the Perlemian Trade Route. Naos III served as the name for both the moon and the sole area of habitation on it.

The locals exported Naos sharptooth fish, and the Naos III Mercantile controlled most businesses. The streets were known to be mucky, and dangerous. There was little sanitation, with debris being shuffled to the side of the roadway. The authorities on the planet had not declared an official drinking limit, which resulted in the drunkenness of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi while on a mission to find the pilot of an experimental shuttle described by the Bith, Thal K'sar.

The planet is described to have low-slung prefab buildings. Icicles decorated almost every building. The streets were mostly damaged ceramacrete paving. Very little of the local climate control machinery was in good repair, in keeping with the local ethos.

Colonists from Rodia and Ryloth were lured here in hope of discovering rich veins of ryll spice in the planet's volcanically heated cave systems.

The moon's continued habitation led to the discovery of a delicacy available from the ice-covered rivers. These fish were known as the Naos sharptooth, a galactic delicacy from Mon Calamari to Corellia.
