Dubrillion was a formerly lush green planet with beautiful oceans and lush-green continents, framed with fluffy white clouds. It was the sister world of Destrillion.
The planet was located in the Outer Rim Territories near Dantooine and Muunilinst. There was an asteroid field near the planet. Dubrillion was Lando Calrissian's main base for his asteroid operation and housed many luxury suites and grand cities. During the Yuuzhan Vong War, the planet was Vongformed, destroying its forests and cities.

[edit] History
During the Galactic Civil War, the Dubrillion system hosted a factory and testing facility for new weapons. In the midst of a Dubrillion ocean was a huge superlaser, which was a prototype laser for the second Death Star. It was destroyed by Rogue Squadron with the help of newly defected Imperial General Crix Madine after several Rebel Alliance ships passing the planet were destroyed by a beam coming from Dubrillion.
In the Yuuzhan Vong War, Dubrillion was one of the first worlds to fall to the Yuuzhan Vong. The Vong set up a base camp in the nearby asteroid field, and for two months attacked ships traveling to and from Dubrillion. When the New Republic arrived to help evacuate the planet, the Yuuzhan Vong burst out from the asteroid field, destroying countless ships carrying refugees.
After the New Republic forces had retreated, the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the planet. Using their biotechnology, they terraformed the planet, breaking down buildings and swallowing roads. Shedao Shai oversaw the terraforming of Dubrillion, and chose the planet as the main base for the Yuuzhan Vong in the Outer Rim. The remaining citizens that had been unable to flee attempted to hide, but were eventually found and tortured or killed.
Within days, only minimal trace of the original Dubrillion remained. However, the Dubrillion Aquarium was left alone by the invaders because of its vast collection of galactic marine life, which appealed to the Yuuzhan Vong's reverence of life.
