Permafrost crystal

Permafrost crystal was a type of crystal that existed in the galaxy.^[1] In 9 ABY,^[2] the human^[3] Hunter Sentinel shared his past as an Imperial stormtrooper during an interview session^[1] for the competitive sporting show Hunters of the Outer Rim.^[4] In the story, Sentinel claimed that he found a Permafrost crystal on an ice planet, though he was unsure if it was the planets Hoth, Gigor, or Atoa. He later used the crystal to defeat a Fireworm by putting it in the creature's maw during his next deployment on a lava planet, which Sentinel guessed could either be the planets Senna or Mustafar. Imara Vex,^[1] another competitor of the show,^[4] later came to the interview and told the fans that Sentinel's stories were untrue.^[1]
