"I was seven, and the planet we were evacuating was called Shadda-Bi-Boran. The sun was dying and we managed to relocate the entire populace, but we couldn't replicate the environment properly. Whatever nutrients they got from their sun, they couldn't get anywhere else."
―Padmé Amidala, to Rush Clovis[4]

Shadda-Bi-Boran was a planet[4] located within the Toblain sector[2] in the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories.[1] By 228 BBY,[5] it was located within the Occlusion Zone created by the Nihil marauders.[2] In 39 BBY,[6] the planet's sun was dying. Padmé Amidala, her father Ruwee Naberrie,[4] and Onaconda Farr[7] visited the planet as part of a relief group and helped evacuate the entire populace. The evacuees, however, proved unable to adapt to life elsewhere because they were unable to replicate Shadda-Bi-Boran's environment properly and died.[4] In 28 BBY[8], Amidala told Senator Rush Clovis about her visit to the planet and her attempt to help its populace.[4] The planet's sun soon expanded into a nebula, with the system becoming known as the Shadda Nebula.[3]

Behind the scenes

Shadda-Bi-Boran was first mentioned in the new Star Wars canon on a map featured in the 2016 StarWars.com article Where in the Galaxy Are the Worlds of Star Wars: The Force Awakens?[9]

In Star Wars Legends, Shadda-Bi-Boran was first mentioned in the novelization of Attack of the Clones,[10] and would also have been mentioned in the movie, if not for a last minute rewrite of the line in which it was originally named, and then the deletion of the scene entirely.[11]

The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic – Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic Adventures (2023) 4 takes place one year and two weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon, it must be set in 228 BBY. Since the events of The High Republic Adventures (2023) 6 are set immediately following the fourth issue its event must take place in the same year.
  6. ↑ According to Queen's Shadow, Padmé Amidala was fourteen during the Invasion of Naboo, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places in 32 BBY. Therefore, her date of birth can be placed in 46 BBY. Since the mission to Shadda-Bi-Boran occurred when Amidala was seven, the date of 39 BBY can be deduced using simple math.
