Legend

this world, the primary planet in the Nothoiin System, was the homeworld of the Nothoiin race. During the fifty years leading up to the Galactic Civil War, Nothoiin experienced extreme drought conditions, and huge wildfires were touched off every summer. Scientists have blamed this phenomenon on the poor water management techniques of the Nothoiin people, who used all their water supply for municipal and selected agricultural uses. This left the plains of the planet with only meager rains to supply needed moisture. Because of the annual wildfires, Nothoiin's cities and starports were surrounded fire-break walls. The fires also filled the skies of Nothoiin with ash and soot, giving the planet a near-continual shroud of smog.
