===Old Republic era===
{{Quote|Nothing on Rishi but pirates and gunrunners.|[[Zenith]]|Star Wars: The Old Republic: Shadow of Revan}}
Rishi was discovered more than a century before the [[Galactic War]] by a group of pirates, the [[Nova Blades]], when their [[Aggressor (Rishi)|starship]] crash-landed on the planet after a failed attempt to explore the Rishi Maze. Unable to leave Rishi, the Nova Blades settled on the planet and eventually learned to refine its fossil fuels. However, the Nova Blades later chose to stay on the planet and made Rishi a paradise for many criminals in [[The galaxy/Legends|the galaxy]].<ref name="TSoR">{{TORcite|type=codex|The Settlement of Rishi}}</ref>

Shortly after the [[Battle of Rishi]], the deceased [[Jedi Master/Legends|Jedi Master]] [[Orgus Din]] gave his [[Padawan/Legends|Padawan]] a last lesson in form of a [[Force ghost]], having encouraged the Padawan to help the people of Rishi and be reminded through good deeds what it truly means to be a [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]]. To fullfill his Master's last wish, the Padawan and [[Archiban Frodrick Kimble]] cured homeless people of the [[Corellian Tanamen Fever]] for free.<ref name="The Scars We Bear">{{TORcite|exp=shadow|type=class|Jedi Knight|The Scars We Bear|Rishi}}</ref> Having cleared rubble and repaired the monsoon baffles aswell, [[Orgus Din]] revealed to his [[Padawan/Legends|Padawan]] that the upcoming year will have a better wet season on Rishi.<ref name="The Scars We Bear" />
10 Years after the [[Battle of Rishi]] - according to a [[Force vision]] experienced and shared by [[Orgus Din]] - the people of Rishi chased away the pirates except for those that have settled down completely. And a century later, Rishi might have become a thriving planet with its locals living in harmony with life and nature.<ref name="The Scars We Bear" />

Rishi was a tropical planet in the Rishi system which was located in the Outer Rim Territories. The planet was the homeworld of the avian Rishii.

Description

"Why you want to live in hot, humid lowlands? Mountains are much better."
―A Rishii questions non-Rishii settlers' choice of home location[4]

Rishi was a planet located in the Abrion sector of the Outer Rim Territories, along the Manda Merchant Route. It was also the endpoint of the only well-traveled hyperlane into the Rishi Maze, the Zareca String.[1]

Rishi was the homeworld of the Rishii, a winged species, who lived in nests on the mountains of Rishi.[4]

In addition to the lush tropical terrain, Rishi's surface featured mountains, valleys, and swamps. Human and alien colonists lived in the deep valleys, while the Rishii lived in the high mountains.[8]

History

In 60 BBY,[8] some 50,000 H'kig fundamentalist followers left the Core world of Galand and founded a religious colony on Rishi. However the group quickly dissolved in religious schism, with a minority who left the planet and settled another colony on J't'p'tan.[7] Many smugglers later used Rishi as a base because of the colonists' tolerance.[4]

During the Galactic Civil War, the smuggler Talon Karrde and his lieutenant Mara Jade had a base here, which became his main base of operations after his base at Myrkr was compromised during the Thrawn campaign. The base was quickly abandoned after the bounty hunter Gunner Groth discovered the presence of Karrde's smugglers on Rishi.[6]

Behind the scenes

The PC game Star Wars: Rebellion mistakenly places Rishi in the Farfin sector (a misspelling of the true Farrfin sector) of the Core Worlds.
