Almar
This minor world is the primary planet in the Almaran System. Located in the Elrood Sector, much of the planet was dedicated to the tourist trade. When the Empire invaded the sector, the Alliance was able to erase the data files in the central computer of Almar Upside, the planet's primary city. Dummy corporations were set up, and the planet remained outside of Imperial control. The Alliance then set up a number of listening posts on the planet, in an effort to obtain information on the Imperial forces nearby. Almar is a pleasant world, covered with tropical beaches, jungles, and wide plains of unusual orange grasses.
Berea

Many Imperial prisoners captured during the Galactic Civil War were sent to labor camps on Berea.
Bodrin
The primary planet in the Bodrin System, this rocky world is found in the Elrood Sector. The inhabitants barely make enough working as miners for the Elrood Quarry Corporation to survive. The mines operate at full output during the summer months, but the five winter months force the planet to shut down.

Dega
This world, the primary planet in the Dega System of the Elrood Sector, was the primary mining colony for Radell Mining Corporation until the veins of minerals and ores dried up during the early years of the New Order. The miners left the planet, leaving rusting equipment and a polluted ecosystem behind. Smugglers have taken refuge on the planet, hiding in the safest mining tunnels. Dega's day takes up 19 standard hours, and its year encompasses 295 local days.
Derilyn This is the primary planet in the Derilyn System, located in the Elrood Sector. The planet was subjugated by the Empire in a mere three days, and an entire sector army was stationed there. The various races that inhabit the planet - Coynite, Gamorrean, Human, Meris, and Teltoris - were cautious not to upset the Empire, but longed for their freedom. The Derilyn day lasts 27 standard hours, and the year lasts 350 local days. It has a varied ecology.

Halbara
This planet is the primary world in the Halbara System. Located in the Elrood Sector, this planet is owned and operated by Radell Mining. The majority of the planet is covered by tropical rainforests, but it is also ravaged by monsoons most of the year. This makes mining difficult, but Radell has found the rewards worth the pain. They have stationed a security force on Halbara, and have given them authorization to shoot first and ask questions later.
Kidron
This was the second, and primary, planet in the Kidron System, located in the Elrood Sector. It was the homeworld of the Orfite race, but has become a sort of haven for criminals and convicts. It was a hot, damp world that is covered with jungles and oceans. Its day lasted 20 standard hours, and its year lasted 276 local days. Kidron had a thin atmosphere and was barely habitable to most races. The atmospheric make-up, along with the orange light from its star, Kidros, gave Kidron a bright orange sky punctuated by intense sunrises and sunsets. The planet was orbited by four moons.
Korad
This planet was the dumping grounds for the Elrood Sector. Located in the Korad System, Korad was an arid, rocky world covered with junkyards and ringed by an artificial belt of scrap. It was also the base of operations for Slythor the Squib, during the height of the New Order. The planet was controlled by groupd of Squibs in the north and Ugors in the east.
Kuras
This planet was located on the edge of the Elrood Sector, in the Kuras System. It was a dry, volcanic world which was lethal for humans and most other races. An abundance of heavy metals, harmful bacteria, and airborne poisons made it virtually impossible for most humanoid races to survive without some form of breathing apparatus. It existed in "the Drift," the system-wide dust cloud that made travel through the system difficult at best. Despite the lethal environment, Kuras III supported two native life forms: the Aganof and the Pulra. Its day lasted an average of 18 standard hours, and its year encompassed 400 local days. Because of its location, it has not been fully explored.
Kuras Asteroid Belt
This field of planetary debris orbited the star Kuras between the planets Kuras III and Kuras IV. Like most asteroid fields, it made travel through the Kuras System difficult. It was believed that the first probe sent by the Old Republic to the system was destroyed in the field, keeping the system out of most star charts and hidden from general view.
Lanthrym
This was the primary world in the Lanthrym System, a little-traveled part of the Elrood Sector. It was primarily populated by Gamorreans, who work on the planet for the various pirates and crimelords that use Lanthrym as their base. It was a cool world, covered with frozen plains and snowy wastes. The climate has forced the crime bosses to build their casinos and gladiator arenas underground.
Merisee
This planet, the primary world in the Merisee System of the Elrood Sector, was known as the "breadbasket of the Elrood Sector" because its agricultural production provided foodstuffs to most of the sector. It was the homeworld of two races, the Meri and the Teltior, who had been separated from each other for many millennia until volcanic activity caused seismic shifts in the planet's surface. In a period known as "The Joining," a finger of mountains was formed between the two continents of the planet. This allowed the two races to finally encounter each other, leading to a series of civil wars. The fought for a thousand years before the New Republic located the planet, and the warring parties realized that their feud was miniscule compared to the rest of the galaxy. It enjoyed a free government even at the height of the New Order, and its enlightened leaders strived to keep it that way. The planet's beautiful plains and sweeping vistas hide a dark side to the planet: the Loag. The Loag are a band of mercenaries that survived being wiped out by the old Jedi Knights. The survivors fled to Merisee and hid, silently biding their time to gain revenge. Merisee was orbited by two moons, Tola and Meriso. The average day on Merisee lasts 24 standard hours, and its year lasts 315 local days.
Osirrag
The primary planet in the Osirrag System, this forested world could have a flourishing tourist trade if it wasn't located so far from the trade routes that wander through the Elrood Sector. The seasons are calm, and only add to the beauty of the terrain. It is said that a race of sentient creatures lives in the air currents of the planet. Rumors tell of a young boy who sought them out, and learned to communicate with them in their own language of whistles. They developed a lasting relationship, with the boy growing up to become their protector. In return, the creatures extended his lifespan.
Tifnyl
This gas giant was the primary planet in the Tifnyl System, located in the Elrood Sector. Although the planet itself was uninhabitable, one of its moons supported an Imperial listening post during the Galactic Civil War.
Torina
This planet was situated in the middle of the Elrood-Derilyn Trade Route, and was the last free stop along the run during the Empire's control of Elrood Sector. It was the primary world in the Torina System, located in the Elrood Sector. Much of the espionage that occurred in the sector during the Galactic Civil War was based on Torina. Its primary exports were cheap imitations of most products; many of the goods produced on Torina break down after they are purchased. It was the homeworld of the Torine race of near-humans, and was the site of several land-based and orbital starports.
