"Dee'ja Peak is probably the most beautiful mountain town on Naboo. I'm lucky to work here."
Vance Groten[4]

Dee'ja Peak was a scenic city nestled within the Gallo Mountains, on top of an eponymous peak on Naboo known as the Dee'ja peak.

Description[]

DeejaPeak2-SWG

Dee'ja Peak

Dee'ja Peak was a secluded town nestled deep within a mountain valley. The city catered to those who wanted to get away from it all, and many residents of Dee'ja Peak chose to live there because of the independent lifestyle. Its inhabitants were highly welcoming as it used to be a long way to reach the city.[5]

The city was built close to a great waterfall[2] and was famed for its stunning views.[5] The waterfall of Dee'ja Peak was famous and considered one of the most beautiful in the galaxy.[2]

History[]

"I was hoping you could help me by reducing some of the threats to the Dee'ja Peak area. Like the Naboo pirates or the Maulers. Oh, and feral shaupauts have been wreaking havoc. Especially the one known as Blot."
―Vance Groten, to a spacer[6]

A nomadic tribe arriving at Dee'ja Peak and settling there

Dee'ja Peak was one of the first settlements established on the planet Naboo. It was founded by a nomadic tribe of Humans from Grizmallt who came to colonize the planet many centuries before the Clone Wars. The tribe was venturing into the Gallo Mountains when they discovered the location of Dee'ja Peak. They settled a small village there and developed a farming community.[7]

During the reign of the Galactic Empire and during the Galactic Civil War, many people seeking independence moved to Dee'ja Peak because they disagreed with Queen Kylantha's support of the Empire.[5] However, after the Battle of Yavin, the city eventually became an Imperial stronghold. Dee'ja Peak was controlled by the Empire and had many stormtroopers patrolling the streets.[3]

In 1 ABY,[8] Vance Groten recruited RSF agents to eliminate groups of Maulers and Naboo pirates, as well as Blot's pack of aggressive feral shaupauts, near Dee'ja Peak.[6]

Inhabitants[]

Residents or visitors of the city in the time after the Battle of Yavin included Arven Wendik, Damalia Korde, Kima Nazith,[1] Uwo Poal,[9] Herman Pate, Zanier Hudmasse, Tanoa Vills, Vance Groten, Walker Luskeske and Ruab.[10]

Behind the scenes[]

While the spelling of this city was Deeja Peak in the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies, an alternate spelling of Dee'ja Peak was used in the following Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine spin-off novel. Star Wars Galaxies has since adapted to the book's spelling.

  8. According to its opening crawl, Star Wars Galaxies was set sometime after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The only precise time indication in the game was given by the character Ruwan Tokai, who referenced the destruction of the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin as occurring one year earlier, placing the game sometime around 1 ABY. Later, multiple elements confirmed the placement of the game storyline in 1 ABY. First, The Essential Reader's Companion established that the tie-in novel Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine took place in 1 ABY. Furthermore, the game expansion Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees was set during the Blockade of Kashyyyk, one year after the Battle of Yavin according to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Additionally, the main scenario of The Nightsister's Revenge from the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game was set over a year before the Battle of Hoth (3 ABY), so around 1.5 ABY. Finally, the reference book Strongholds of Resistance placed the events of Star Wars Galaxies's Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" one year after the Battle of Yavin. Of note, Galaxies's Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" introduced the Battle of Hoth in the game. However, the developers were quite clear that this was only intended to be a completely isolated "Star Wars Moment" without any effect on continuity for the rest of the game.
