- "That was how I knew I had to leave my world. It was how I realized I was living in filth, eating garbage and drinking poison, when offworlders were so rich they could throw nectrose packets to children."
- ―Everi Chalis, to Hazram Namir
A terrestrial planet home to an undeveloped society was the homeworld of the human Everi Chalis, who lived in the ruins of a bombed paper mill prior to the time of the Galactic Empire.[1] Chalis's mother attempted to sell her to the captain[2] of a Trade Federation exploratory starship, but the captain instead gave Chalis a packet of nectrose crystals out of sympathy, as she was too small.[1]
Wanting to leave the planet,[1] Chalis enrolled into the Colonial Academy academic institution to study art and subsequently went offworld[2] by the time of the Empire's rise to power[1] in 19 BBY.[3] Chalis later told the Rebel Alliance First Sergeant Hazram Namir about her homeworld[1] in 3 ABY,[4] considering the planet similar to Namir's own homeworld, the Tionese backwater Crucival.[1]
Behind the scenes
The planet was first mentioned in the 2015 novel Battlefront: Twilight Company, written by Alexander Freed. While the novel conveys this as a separate planet,[1] the 2024 DK Publishing reference book Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy states that the homeworld of Everi Chalis is the planet Haidoral Prime.[5] This article uses the information from Twilight Company.
