Desstious was a world[3] located in the Desstious system, a part of the Lambda sector[1] in the Trailing Sectors portion of[2] the Mid Rim.[1] It was the homeworld of the Human male Par Lankin, who was born[3] in 50 BBY.[4] Lankin's homeworld was noted in Wanted by Cracken, a datafile that served as a compilation of reports on various threats to the New Republic and was published[3] in 7 ABY.[4]

Behind the scenes

Desstious was mentioned in the 1993 sourcebook Wanted by Cracken, which was written by Louis J. Prosperi for West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Desstious system, and therefore Desstious itself, in grid square P-16.[2]
