Basilisk was a Core world in the Arrowhead of the Slice, near Coruscant.

History

Basilisk was home to the Basiliskans, an intelligent lizard species. They were the creators of the Basilisk war droids, that were rumored to be modeled after themselves. During their war with the Mandalorians around the year 4017 BBY, the Basiliskans chemically poisoned their own planet, in a last effort to defeat their conquerors. Despite receiving Jedi and Republic reinforcements under Sidrona Diath at the Battle of Basilisk, the Mandalorians conquered the planet and enslaved the remaining Basiliskans.

Behind the scenes

The PC video game Star Wars: Rebellion mistakenly places Basilisk in the Moddell sector.
