Oasis
this planet was located in a gap of "clear space" in the middle of the Maelstrom. The planet had been producing oxite for the Riders of the Maelstrom to sell when Rodin Higron won the rights to the planet in a crooked sabacc match. Higron saw the success that the Riders were having pirating ships that drop back to sublight speeds near the Maelstrom, and set up his own piracy operation based on Oasis. Big Jak Targrim, the leader of the Riders, once planned to crash the Kuari Princess into the planet, hoping to rid himself of the nuisance of Higron's pirates. The attempt failed when Alliance agents on board the luxury liner were able to overtake the Princess's navigational controls and steer it away.
