- "Phindar, by contrast, was attacked by Separatists during the war, and hosts what is little more than a large tanker in fixed orbit. The property of a criminal cartel some twenty years ago, it is now operated by subcontractors as a fuel and service facility for Imperial starships."
- ―Moff Wilhuff Tarkin
Phindar was a planet located in the Phindar system,[2] part of the Demetras sector in the Outer Rim Territories.[1] During the High Republic Era, Vaadu served as the planet's senator.[5] The planet, which was home to the Phindian species,[4] was attacked by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, and later became affiliated with the Galactic Empire.[2] In orbit over the planet was a tanker facility. About five years after the Clone Wars, the facility was destroyed by a rebel group using the hijacked Imperial starship known as the Carrion Spike.[6] The planet was later host to a battle during the Galactic Civil War.[7]
Behind the scenes
The planet Phindar was first recanonized by the 2014 novel Tarkin, which placed the system in the Mandalore sector.[2] The 2025 "Star Systems of the Galaxy" appendix later moved the Phindar system to the Demetras sector, matching the system's original placement in Star Wars Legends.[1]
