01 · Orientation

Summary

Peridea lies in a distant galaxy beyond the familiar Star Wars map. It is tied to the ancestors of the Dathomiri, the migration of purrgil, and the long exile of both Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn.

02 · Place

Environment and settlement

The world appears ancient, dry, and sparsely populated, with monumental ruins, fortress architecture, open plains, and the remains of enormous purrgil. Its position at the end of an intergalactic migration route gives the landscape a sense of both arrival and death.

03 · Society

People and culture

Peridea contains multiple small communities rather than a unified modern state. The Great Mothers preserve Nightsister traditions, the Noti travel in mobile communities, and bandits occupy other parts of the landscape. Exile and mobility are recurring features of life there.

04 · Religion & worldview

Sacred landscape, belief, and moral order

Peridea is an ancestral and ritual landscape for the Great Mothers and is tied to ancient Dathomiri migration. Ruins, graves, purrgil remains, exile, and Nightsister practice make the world a place where ancestry, death, travel, and sacred memory converge.

05 · Institutions

Politics and power

The Great Mothers possess ritual authority and knowledge that allows them to cooperate with Thrawn. Thrawn, meanwhile, maintains military command over stranded Imperial personnel. Power on Peridea is therefore fragmented between religious specialists, armed groups, and local communities.

06 · Change over time

Historical significance

Ancient records connect Peridea to Dathomiri ancestors and purrgil migration. Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn were carried there by purrgil after the liberation of Lothal. Years later, Ahsoka Tano and her allies reached the far galaxy, reopening routes between Peridea and the main galaxy.
