Orto Plutonia

Orto Plutonia had long been a protectorate of the Pantoran moon, after Pantoran scouts searched the world and found no denizens amid its frozen features. They had missed the Talz population, which lived hidden in the ice canyons in villages carved out of the ice walls, filled with huts made from animal skins pulled over bone-frames. The Talz lived a simple existence, somehow subsisting off the harsh environment, and using the native narglatch cats as mounts and protection. The Talz attacked the newcomers to their world, wiping out both Republic and Separatist outposts during the Clone Wars.

Thanks to modified systems, freeco bikes functioned in frigid weather that would ground a Repulic gunship. These speeder bikes were properly known as CK-6 swoop bikes, and their nickname was a nod to the "freezing cold" conditions for which they were designed.

Pantora is the principal moon of the Pantora system, orbiting the ice planet Orto Plutonia. A member of the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars, Riyo Chuchi represented Pantora in the Senate while Baron Papanoida served as the Chairman of Pantora after succeeding Chi Cho. At the start of the age of the Empire, the marshy Outer Rim world struggles to maintain its business and industry under the new regime, with outposts like Ro Station falling into disrepair. However, in the streets the citizens rejoice over the end of the long and deadly war.

Once a young and idealistic representative to Pantora in the Republic's Galactic Senate, Riyo Chuchi overcame her timidity, growing into a strong leader who once forced the Trade Federation into lifting a blockade over her home planet. After the rise of the Empire, Chuchi continues to uphold her beliefs in a fair and just government, forming an alliance with Bail Organa of Alderaan. When she learns that the devastation on Kamino was caused by Imperial fire, she will risk everything to expose the traitorous Vice Admiral Rampart on the senate floor.
