Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Beheboth was a desert planet located in the Sanbra sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Beheboth was home to the Tirrith, a unique empathic gaseous culture of hive-minded sentient particles, which thrived even among the planet's inhospitably arid and dry climate. Bothans, and later Humans, settled Beheboth during the Republic era, dotting the world with moisture farms and small towns. During the Imperial Period, Beheboth's fledgling economy came under heavy threat from brigands who manipulated the Tirrith into aiding them in raids on local moisture farms, a threat ended by Rebel hero Luke Skywalker and local leader Darial Anglethorn, who later became Beheboth's first representative to the New Republic Senate.
