Mhatma 5
- "Shantee Ren still lives on Mhatma 5, a cold frontier world with a large preserve of transplanted wild stohls."
- ―Holobrochure for the Tagge Holographic Museum of Chandrila
Mhatma 5 was a cold terrestrial world that occupied the fifth orbital position[2] in the Mhatma system, a part of the freestanding subsectors portion of the Mid Rim.[1] During the Galactic Civil War, Mhatma 5 was situated on the galactic frontier.[2]
At some point after the popular holovid celebrity Shantee Ren launched her campaign to have the stohl—elusive, furred serpent–like predators native to the[2] Sombure sector[4] ice planet[5] Ichtor 8—declared an endangered species, a large preserve of transplanted wild stohls was established on Mhatma 5. Ren herself also took up permanent residence on the world, and an entry of a holobrochure for the Tagge Holographic Museum of Chandrila dedicated to the stohl later noted that the holovid star still resided there.[2]
Behind the scenes
Mhatma 5 was first mentioned in the 1994 sourcebook Creatures of the Galaxy, published by West End Games for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. The section of the book mentioning the planet was authored by Phil Brucato.[2] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Mhatma system, and therefore Mhatma 5, in grid square I-16.[3]
