Suria

Suria was a planet^[4] located in the Suria system in the Bajic sector of the Outer Rim Territories^[1] and the Trailing Sectors.^[2] It was situated in grid square P-17 of the Standard Galactic Grid.^[1] Appearing blue from space, Suria was orbited by the Suria space station,^[3] a common locale for mercenaries, assassins,^[5] and bounty hunters alike.^[3] Around 18 BBY,^[6] the bounty hunter Fennec Shand met the rogue clone commandos Hunter and Wrecker on the space station above Suria to negotiate a deal.^[3]

Behind the scenes

Suria first appeared in "Bad Territory,"^[3] the eighth episode of the third season of the animated television series Star Wars: The Bad Batch that premiered on March 20, 2024.^[7] Although it was not identified in the episode itself,^[3] Suria was named simultaneously in the ensuing episode guide on StarWars.com,^[4] the site's Databank,^[5] and within another StarWars.com article.^[8] Concept art of the planet and the orbiting space station was done by artist Stephan "Stev" Carey.^[9] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the Suria system was established in the StarWars.com Online Companion to the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas.^[10]

The reference book Star Wars: Complete Locations, New Edition,^[11] which was published on March 11, 2025,^[12] placed Suria in the Outer Rim Territories in grid square P-17 on a map of the galaxy^[11] written by Jason Fry,^[13] along the route^[11] known in Legends as the Five Veils Route.^[14] However, the Suria system was later moved to the Expansion Region in grid square N-16 by "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published with the Star Wars Galaxy Map on StarWars.com^[1] on June 24, 2025. Both works were authored by Fry.^[15] The second version of the appendix, released on October 13 of that year, restored Suria's original placement in the Outer Rim.^[16]
