- "Looks like we got Kerkoidia back. Another victory for the New Republic."
- ―Nath Tensent
Kerkoidia was a blue-gray planet[6] located in the Kerkoidia system in the Kira sector the Expansion Region, in grid square N-15 of the Standard Galactic Grid[1] The Kerkoiden species was native to the world, and the Kerkoiden male Whorm Loathsom[4] served for a long time in its planetary defense forces. Loathsom eventually earned the rank of general with the Confederacy of Independent Systems.[7] In addition to Loathsom joining the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Retail Caucus was headquarted on Kerkoida.[8] After the Battle of Endor, the New Republic managed to liberate Kerkoidia from the Galactic Empire.[6]
Behind the scenes
Kerkoidia was introduced in the current Star Wars canon in the 2015 reference book Ultimate Star Wars.[4] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the planet was first mentioned in The Clone Wars Campaign Guide, a 2009 Wizards of the Coast supplement for the Star Wars Roleplaying Game.[9]
