Background: A rugged, mountainous planet
located in the Eadu system of the Outer Rim
Territories' Bheriz sector, Eadu was a remote, bluehued world shrouded in gloomy rainstorms, wind,
and lightning strikes. The planet's cloud cover was
so thick that it appeared to be a night world even
in daytime, and clouds mired visibility while gales
battered any starships attempting to reach the
surface. It comprised difficult, rainswept terrain
which afforded the planet natural defenses,
although the southern hemisphere also contained
an Eaduan village cluster populated by nerf
herders. The ground was uneven, and was made up
of jagged rock formations, broad mesas, black
stone ridges, and narrow spires. The rocky canyons
bottomed out in dozens of writhing streambeds.
The planet's rain had the smell of fecund soil with
an undertone of acrid stink.
During the Age of the Empire, Eadu was owned
by Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, and ceded to his
eponymous Tarkin Initiative as part of the ongoing
Death Star project begun prior to the onset of the
Clone Wars
