Ord Carpagia[4] was a world[5] located in the Carpagia system,[1] a part of the Northern Dependencies portion of[2] the Colonies.[1] It served as an Ordnance/Regional Depot outpost for the Galactic Republic during the Pius Dea Era, a period of time that lasted between approximately 12,000 BBY and 11,000 BBY.[4]
Behind the scenes
Ord Carpagia was introduced in the 2012 reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare, authored by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart.[4] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Carpagia system, and therefore Ord Carpagia, in grid square L-9.[3]
Ord Carpagia also shared its name with the Carpagian, a starship in service during the Galactic Civil War that was introduced in "Dandrian's Ring," a roleplaying adventure authored by Chris Hind and published in the April 1991 forty-ninth issue of the Challenge magazine for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[6] The adventure is considered noncanonical with respect to the Star Wars Legends continuity.[7]
