Duunir was a celestial body[3] located in the Duunir system, a part of the Outer Rim Territories' Kibilini sector.[1] At some point by the time of the Galactic Civil War, the interstellar smuggler and pirate organization Black Bha'lir had established a facility on Duunir that was the largest of several isolated refuges for the creature also known as the Black Bha'lir. The latter, a forest predator from the world of Iyred, had been adopted as a mascot of the criminal group, and consequently the Black Bha'lir founded the Duunir refuge as a charity. At that and other, similar facilities, small numbers of Black Bha'lir were raised despite the creature being officially listed as extinct in the wake of environmental degradation on Iyred.[3]
Behind the scenes
Duunir was mentioned in The Black Sands of Socorro, a 1997 sourcebook authored by Patricia A. Jackson for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Duunir system, and therefore the celestial body, in grid square Q-17.[2]
