Sriluur was a desert planet[3] located in the Sriluur system in the Periphery, a subsector of the Outer Rim Territories' Tharin sector[1] that was the homeworld of the Weequays, a species whose tough, leathery skin helped them endure its harsh conditions,[3] and the Sriluurian butterfly.[4]
Sriluur was conquered by the Hutt Cartel, which was controlled by the Hutts from the neighboring world of Nal Hutta, who turned the Weequays into slaves or vassals.[5] Path of the Open Hand Elder Delwin hailed from Sriluur and, after allowing himself to be excited for the Path's future thanks to Guide Marda Ro, proposed establishing a new Path community on Sriluur. Instead, however, Delwin would be killed during the Battle of Jedha, creating a feeling of guilt in Ro.[8] The pirate Hondo Ohnaka, leader of the Ohnaka Gang, was a male Weequay from this world.[9]
Behind the scenes[]
Sriluur was first mentioned in "The Greel Wood Haven," an article written by Craig Robert Carey[10] that was published in Star Wars Adventure Journal 6, which was released in May of 1995.[11] It became canon when it was mentioned in Ultimate Star Wars, a 2015 reference book co-written by Patricia Barr, Adam Bray, Daniel Wallace, and Ryder Windham.[9]
