Legend

this planet was used as a junkyard during the height of the New Order. The gunrunner Orion Ferret maintained a hidden cache on the planet, where he stored illegal goods that needed to be hidden from Imperial patrols. The four TIE Fighters purchased by the Alliance for the assault on Spindrift were hidden on Patch-4. The surface of the planet was covered with a runny, jelly-like substance which was formed from the various chemicals and organic material that was dumped on the planet over the decades. Orion Ferret took control of the planet during the New Order, placing several Watcher beasts on its surface to protect his cache of weapons. However, Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian, on a mission to purchase the TIE Fighters, discovered how to use a sonic pacifier to quell the Watcher Beasts. Knowing that they had been tricked by Ferret, they turned over the sonic pacifier to Serja Kesselrook, allowing the vagabond and his friends to take control of Patch-4 for their own use.
