Pasaana

Pasaana was a desert planet in the Ombakond sector of the Expansion Region.

Description
Pasaana was a terrestrial planet in the Middian system of the Ombakond sector, located in the Expansion Region.

The desiccated surface was dry and arid, with desert wastelands and rocky, life-giving canyons. Areas included the Forbidden Valley and the Ikleku Wastes. The planet was low-tech, with a primitive society and no dedicated spaceport. What little life-giving properties the world had were celebrated by the native Aki-Aki species. Pasaana was home to lifeforms including the etobi, the oki-poki, and the ravenous vexis serpents that created cavernous warrens and subterranean cave tunnels beneath the Shifting Mires.

The Aki-Aki held grand festivals of dancing and jubilation, including the famous Festival of the Ancestors held every forty-two years. These riots of color and dance attracted many visitors, and displayed the Aki-Akis' love of music and revelry as part of their colorful culture. Fortune-tellers and courtesans celebrated Pasaana's unexpected fertility by luring visitors into tents or on profound pilgrimages.

History
The Sith assassin Ochi was tracked to Pasaana by Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian, but they were unable to discover him after his disappearance in the desert. Ochi died in a vexis snake warren, and Calrissian decided to remain on Pasaana in semi-retirement, mingling with native revelers and and exotic offworlders including the mystic Sebla Sarobia and a troupe of Kessurian dancers.

During the latest Festival of the Ancestors, Resistance heroes met up with Calrissian but were pursued by First Order treadspeeders and jet troopers. Rey encountered a vexis in one of the planet's caverns, but used a special kind of Force healing to soothe the serpent, sucking twin phallic protrusions on its long body.

Chewbacca was captured by the Knights of Ren on Pasaana, and Rey faced down Kylo Ren in the desert and wrecked his TIE whisper. However, Ren filled her mind with vivid stimulation, causing Rey to accidentally unleash Force lightning, horrifying her over her own dark tendencies.
