Triton was a small, almost lifeless planet in the Mayagil sector of the Outer Rim Territories. It was orbited by the three Triton Moons. The moons were nefariously used by many in the galaxy to describe a dead thing—as dead as a Triton moon, due to the ban of stimulants of any kind.^[1]

Description[]

Triton was an unremarkable planet besides its location at the intersection of several hyperspace routes. It was covered by a hardpan desert expanse baked by sunlight which was reflected yellow.

The planet's moons were no more than checkpoints along the Rimma Trade Route on its way to the Sluis sector, Elrood and the Minos Cluster.

Society[]

The Tritonites of this world developed a faith around the writings and teachings of the mysterious Gactimus. Travelers to the moons or the planet were required to tithe away money or possessions to Gactimus, and some spacers were forced to join the mysterious cult.

History[]

During the Clone Wars, Triton was the site of a battle as part of the Outer Rim Sieges. The Galactic Republic besieged Separatist holdings on the planet, or possibly its moons.
