Keedad

Keedad was a remote terrestrial planet located in the Keedad system, a part of the Auril sector in the Slice portion of the Outer Rim Territories. It was home to the lettrani fruit tree as well as the near-Human Keed species.

During the early history of the Galactic Republic, which was established in 25,053 BBY, Humans settled Keedad. Ytavarg Aleema was a Keed of Keedad who was born around 26 BBY and was additionally descended from the Human colonists. At one point by the time shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Aleema participated in a pick-up game of lettranin—with the sport being played in an enclosed stone arena—the spectators of which included the vacationing Ger Plortor, a scout for the prominent, Core Worlds–based shockball team the Shad Furies. Plortor recruited the Keed athlete for the team, and Aleema accompanied the scout to the Core Worlds, eventually becoming the most renowned shockball player in the galaxy.
