The Talvaria system was located in the Phelleem sector,[1] a part of the Slice portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It was the origin point of[4] the group known as Talvarians.[3]
Behind the scenes
The "Talvor system,"[5] in reference to the Talvarian group,[3] was first mentioned in "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, How I Wonder Where We Are," a 1990 roleplaying game source article written by Glen Allison as a supplement for West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game and published in the thirteenth issue of the Voyages SF magazine. The placed the star system in the Mahrusha sector[5] and is considered noncanonical with respect to the Star Wars Legends continuity.[6] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, authored by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry, named the system that was the origin point of the Talvarians "Talvaria" and placed it in grid square S-7.[2]

(backup link) (screenshot) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for Talvarians in relation to the Talvaria system.
