Taul was an acidic[4] planet in the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories,[1] in grid square J-18 on the Standard Galactic Grid,[3] inhabited by several dangerous creatures, such as the steel-eating spice spiders.[4]
During the Cold War, the Sterdic Star, a Resistance[4] Sphyrna-class Hammerhead corvette[6] commanded by Resistance Captain Hoff and carrying droids C-3PO, O-MR1, medical droid 2MED2, construction droid CO-34, VL-44, and security droid PZ-99 crashed on Taul, and the droids had to fend off native creatures such as spice spiders. Only C-3PO survived.[4]
