Legend

a star system inhabited and controlled by the Ugors, it was made up of asteroids rather than planets. The asteroids themselves orbited a fragment of the first Death Star, which was flung into space when the battle station was destroyed during the Battle of Yavin. Hidden within the fragment, which was known as the Holiest of Holies to the Ugors, was a prototype gravity well projector. The projector mysteriously reactivated itself, and the power of the gravity well began drawing orbital debris and asteroids into the system. The natural effects of gravity eventually created the asteroid field. The Ugors, over the years, turned the system into a huge junkyard. The Imperial starmaps labeled the system as J21-Z65. When the Alliance discovered the presence of the gravity well projector in the Paradise System, they dispatched an assault team to recover it before the Imperials could find it. Without the attraction of the projector, the Paradise System slowly flung itself apart over the following decades.
