Enaleh system
The Enaleh system was located in the Southern Core portion of[2] the Colonies.[1] It contained the terrestrial planet Enaleh. Enaleh was the homeworld of the hela, a species of serpentine amphibians that used a biologically generated repulsorlift field to float through Enaleh's atmosphere. Occasionally, helas were exported offworld; however, the creatures were a rare sight on other planets overall.[3]
The Enaleh system fell within the borders of the Galactic Republic during the Pius Dea Era, a period of time that lasted between 12,000 BBY and 11,000 BBY. During that era, Enaleh served as an Ordnance/Regional Depot outpost for the Republic and was known as Ord Enaleh.[4]
Behind the scenes
The Enaleh system was introduced via an illustration of Enaleh in the 1994 sourcebook Creatures of the Galaxy, published by West End Games for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. The section of the book describing the planet was authored by Chuck Truett and illustrated by David Plunkett.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas first identified the Enaleh system and placed it in grid square L-13.[2]
