History
Edit
Built during the Great Sith War, the station was a Republic service and supply depot. After the defeat of Exar Kun and the bombing of Exar's stronghold on Yavin 4, the station was abandoned.
A former Rodian slave of Exar's forces, known as Suvam Tan, took up residence in the station, using it as a base for scavenging on Yavin IV. He would trade the salvage with Trandoshans and smugglers that came through, in exchange for food and supplies.
During the Jedi Civil War, Revan encountered Yavin Station and Suvam. In exchange for Revan's help against the Trandoshans (who had grown unruly due to Davik Kang's death), Suvam supplied the Jedi with a variety of powerful and rare equipment.
Eventually, Yavin Station began to crumble. Suvam hid several of his most prized possessions on locations on the three habitable moons of Yavin, and sent a data crystal containing the information to his son on Rodia. Shortly after the crystal had been sent away, the station exploded, propelling it into Yavin 22.
The station and Suvam's body were discovered in 0 BBY by his descendant, Suz Tanwa.
