Stend IV

Stend IV was an Outer Rim planet that lay in the Juris sector. Located on the Five Veils Route hyperlane, it was a tropical world with both jungles and oceans on the surface. The Gran inhabitants of the planet Malastare settled Stend IV decades before the Galactic Civil War in an attempt to locate new sources of energy.

Shortly after the Trade Federation invasion of the planet Naboo, Stend IV, which was also home to Elomin colonists, was targeted by the eco-terrorist group known as the Army of Life, which conspired with the Humanocentrist group called the Knights of the Core. Their plan was to smuggle eggs of clodhoppers, omnivorous creatures native to Naboo and infamous for causing the devastation of whole planetary ecosystems, to Stend IV.

The Army of Life hired a group of individuals that transported the clodhopper eggs to a settlement on the Gran colony world. Despite an attack by a Jedi Guardian; a few Gran militiamen; and another, government-recruited group of individuals, the terrorist affiliates succeeded in releasing the clodhoppers into the environment of Stend IV.
