Raxus Prime

Raxus Prime was a waste-covered planet in the Raxus system. It was packed with toxic debris and had a poisonous surface.

Jedi Knight Ulic Qel-Droma unleashed the Dark Reaper upon Republic troops here in 3,996 BBY, during the Great Sith War. In a mysterious and unexplained turn of fate, the machine was apparently disabled by Ulic before it could begin its devastation. Despite its toxic environment, the planet was home to many ancient secrets, among which was the location of the Force Harvester, which was the power source for the long-dismantled Dark Reaper.

Aach Een and his parents moved there from Iridonia. Sometime prior to the Clone Wars, the Meeknu clan was transplanted there from Tatooine to work the machinery.

Raxus Prime was the birthplace of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and served as Count Dooku's personal fortress from 24 BBY until 22 BBY. Dooku learned about the Harvester on Raxus Prime during his visit Qel-Droma's tomb on Rhen Var shortly after the Clone Wars begun.
