Frisal
Frisal was a terrestrial[3] planet[4] located in the Frisal system, a part of the Atrisian Commonwealth[1] in the Southern Core portion of[2] the Core Worlds.[1] It was the homeworld of loirbniggs, a species of eight-legged reptilian creatures.[3]
The Galactic Empire maintained Frisal as a preserve world for affluent Imperial families.[4] Members of the Imperial nobility also vacationed on the planet, and the aristocrats[5] bred[4] and trained loirbniggs for use as mounts.[5]
Behind the scenes
Frisal was first mentioned in the 1993 sourcebook Planets of the Galaxy, Volume Three, which was authored by John Terra and published for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[6] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Frisal system, and therefore the planet Frisal, in grid square J-12.[7]
