History
Edit
Originally known as Kveror, the planet was absorbed into Xim's empire as he expanded his borders from the ancient Kingdom of Cron. After the fall of the empire in 25,100 BBY, Altratonne joined the Galactic Republic when it was rediscovered sometime between the Kymoodon Era and the Rianitus Period.[1]
While avoiding the Mandalorian Wars, the planet was located deep in the space controlled by Darth Revan's Empire during the Jedi Civil War. When Darth Malak was assassinated and Revan disappeared, the Ash Worlds remained neutral through the New Sith Wars and remained relatively obscure on galactic holocharts.[1]
Unfortunately for the forgotten world, the Confederacy of Independent Systems discovered routes into the system during the Clone Wars and invaded the planet Iego nearby. Trapped in Separatist space, the world managed to avoid the war until the formation of the Galactic Empire in 19 BBY.[1] Emperor Palpatine's reign saw the construction of a primary Imperial HoloNet relay communications base called Altratonne Station on the planet's surface as a means to communicate with this region of the Rim. Because the planet was regularly showered with solar flares from the star, communications were often times disrupted. It wasn't long into the Galactic Civil War that the station on the planet was targeted by agents of the Rebel Alliance and a strike team led by Commander Lav Bilsek set out to destroy it. Fleeing the doomed facility, the Imperial agents monitoring communications were able to evacuate before the station was destroyed.[2] Following the fall of the Empire, the planet once more fell into obscurity; it wasn't until 137 ABY that it was recorded to be located in space loyal to the Galactic Alliance Remnant.[1]
Behind the scenesEdit
The planet Altratonne was created for the Star Wars Miniatures Battles Companion, published in 1994. It was later charted on a map of Xim's empire in the The Essential Atlas.
