The Porpor system was located in the Grohl sector,[1] a part of the Slice portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It was home to the sentient species known as Porporites,[3][4] which was exterminated by Gank mercenaries in 4800 BBY.[5]

Behind the scenes

The Porpor system was first mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace, which placed the system in grid square S-16.[2]
