Varl, also known as Varl Prime, was a planet[3] located in the Varl system in Hutt Space[2] that was orbited by 3 moons.[3] Situated along the Pabol Hutta[4] hyperspace route in grid square S-11 of the Standard Galactic Grid,[6] Varl was the original homeworld of the Hutt species,[7] who fled from Varl to escape the Kayfoundo Kapa.[3] In 29 BBY,[8] the Pyke Baron Grott attempted to breed Kayfoundo Kapa on Varl's moon Black Rock for use as living weapons, but the creatures escaped and ran wild within the Varl system, culminating in the entire star system being quarantined.[3]

This assumes that the name "Pabol Hutta," as used in Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, applies to the canon hyperspace route depicted on the map that matches the depiction of the Star Wars Legends route with the same name in The Essential Atlas per BlueskyLogo Jason Fry (@jasoncfry.bsky.social.) on Bluesky (post on January 3, 2025): "They are indeed the same. Same galaxy, same map. In the rare event something needs to be changed, it will be discussed. (In response to: Hi @jasoncfry.bsky.social, was hoping you could confirm for Wookieepedia purposes that the hyperspace routes depicted on the Galaxy Map given out at Celebration are intended to be the same routes as in Legends. Sorry to bother, but would make our lives much easier to have it confirmed!)" (screenshot).

  8. Audible-Icon Star Wars: Padawan's Pride on Audible.com (September 19, 2024) (backup link) states that Padawan's Pride is set three years after the events of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 32 BBY. Therefore Padawan's Pride must take place in 29 BBY.
