Prakith/Legends

Prakith was a mountainous fortress world that, thanks to its unstable terrain, was a difficult location to conquer by force. The world was located in the Prakith system of the Deep Core. It was part of Sector 5.

History
Prakith's major cities (such as Prak City) were built atop the planet's large plateaus, surrounded on all sides by great caverns and crevasses. Since ground travel across such terrain proved difficult, natives often used cloud cars and airspeeders for transportation. The natives were, under Imperial rule, a relatively subdued and businesslike population.

Early in the planet's history, Prakith was a volatile, volcanic world, but was stable enough for Imperial survey teams to explore it during their expeditions into the Deep Core. Prakith's close proximity to the Galactic Core made it a prime location for a hidden redoubt, and was one of the first Deep Core worlds to be civilized. It had a strong Mining Guild presence. The Emperor himself selected Prakith as the base of operations for the Inquisitorius.

The Imperials on Prakith voted to continue the war against the New Republic even after the death of Palpatine, and supported the reborn Emperor during his attempt to retake the galaxy. With the destruction of Byss, Prakith became an independent Imperial world led by warlord Moff Foga Brill, whom was only nominally under the authority of Grand Moff Gann. The planet was impoverished, living conditions miserable. Prakith was finally captured and integrated into the New Republic after many years of attritional warfare.
