Legend

this planet, located in the Outer Rim's Dalonbian sector, was the site of the ExGal-4 outpost shortly before the start of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. This was the first planet on the Yuuzhan Vong Vector Prime, and was destroyed in order to draw attention away from the Yuuzhan Vong base on Helska. The planet was, at one time, dominated by dalloralla tree jungles, and was a beautiful wilderness at the edge of the galaxy. Yomin Carr unleashed a colony of dweebits on the planet, which quickly multiplied and affected the plantlife on the planet, rendered the planet's atmosphere a stormy, toxic soup which killed all life. However, just two months after the initial invasion, Belkadan seemed to return to a normal life. Plants and animals were discovered by New Republic scouts, although Luke Skywalker and Jacen Solo discovered that the lifeforms were actually Yuuzhan Vong biological constructs tended by weakened slaves. The native plantlife had been overtaken by dense, green vines that provided nutrients and energy to the growing yorik coral.
