Description
Zonama Sekot is one of the most bizarre sights in a galaxy of wonders. Capable of hyperspace travel, this rogue planet wanders the space lanes under the guidance of its own self-aware intelligence.
The green sphere is believed to have originated in the home galaxy of the Yuuzhan Vong, grown from a seed of the species' original homeworld, Yuuzhan'tar. Zonama Sekot crossed the intergalactic void and settled in the Outer Rim, its tangled jungles of bora trees providing an inviting habitat for exotic and barely glimpsed fauna. In 28 BBY followers of the discredited Jedi Potentium sect settled on Zonama Sekot, welcomed to their new home by the planet's telepathic intelligence. The colonists, primarily drawn from the Ferroan and the Langhesi species, established a local government under the rule of a Magister, and worked with Sekot to "grow" virtually everything needed to maintain their lifestyle.
After discovering that Sekot could create organic starships that could outmaneuver any Republic interceptor, the colonists popularized their world as a market for exotic items. In 30 BBY the Jedi Knight Vergere came to Zonama Sekot during the world's stay in the Gardaji Rift, encountering an advance scouting force of Yuuzhan Vong. She left with the aliens to spare Zonama Sekot their violence.
A year later, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi came to the planet. Anakin bonded with a cluster of bora seed-partners to grow a custom starship, the Jabitha. But close behind the Jedi came Commander Tarkin and a Republic battle group, and the damage they unleashed on the planet forced its flight into hyperspace.
Zonama Sekot emerged in the Unknown Regions' Klasse Ephemora system and remained there until 28 ABY, when Jedi and Yuuzhan Vong alike located the planet and prompted its return to civilized space. Zonama Sekot entered close orbit around Coruscant, inspiring religious awe in many of the Yuuzhan Vong warriors fighting there.
After the war's end, thousands of Yuuzhan Vong settled on Zonama Sekot along with their leader, Onimi, hoping to build a new home bound to their former caste system. The planet withdrew a safe distance from the Galactic Alliance in order to shield itself from Bothan efforts to find it, as elements within Bothan society hoped to take revenge on the Vong under the genocidal vow of ar'kai. Zonama Sekot has since become the new homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong and the center of their resurgent population.
