Tatooine
Far from the Bright Center
Details
Description
A harsh desert world orbiting twin suns along the Outer Rim of the galaxy, Tatooine is a lawless world ruled by the immoral Hutts. Most settlers operate moisture farms in the desert, but cities such as Mos Espa and Mos Eisley attract a wide range of criminals and rogues. Tatooine's many dangers include sudden sandstorms, bands of roving Tusken Raiders, and carnivorous krayt dragons. Tatooine is also known for dangerous Podraces, rampant gambling, and legalized slavery.

Luke Skywalker
Luke Skywalker grew up on the Lars moisture farm on Tatooine. While he worked at his chores, he would frequently daydream, staring off at the horizon to imagine a galaxy full of adventure far from Tatooine.
Anakin Skywalker
Anakin Skywalker lived the life of a slave on Tatooine, until he was discovered by the Jedi and he had to abandon his mother. He returned a decade later, to find that Shmi Skywalker was tortured and killed by Tusken Raiders. Such painful memories keep Anakin -- and Darth Vader -- far from the desert world.
Jabba the Hutt
Jabba the Hutt ran his criminal empire from Tatooine. Its remote location afforded him the isolation he needed from the Republic and Empire, but its well traveled trade routes kept smugglers and bounty hunters coming to him.
Mos Eisley Cantina
Located in the heart of the port city of Mos Eisley, this seedy watering hole is where most of the best freighter pilots in town can be found.
Lars
moisture farm
The blistering heat of twin suns that constantly bake Tatooine makes life difficult on the desert world. Moisture farms like the Lars homestead are common near the few spots of civilization that have sprouted on the planet.
