The Tokmia system was a star system in the Anoat sector, located in the Greater Javin of the Outer Rim Territories. It contained the planet Tokmia.
History
Tokmia was one of several sites the Galactic Empire suspected the Alliance to Restore the Republic might have been hiding following the Battle of Yavin. The Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Stalker, attached to Darth Vader's Death Squadron, dispatched a Viper probe droid to the system in 3 ABY in search of the hidden Rebel base.[3]
Behind the scenes
Tokmia was first mentioned in the published script of The Empire Strikes Back radio drama. Captain Needa mentions it as one of the destinations for his ship's probe droids as they went in search of the Rebel base.[4] That portion of the scene was cut from the final version of the radio drama,[5] but after the script's publication, other Legends sources began to make mention of the system.[3]
