Background: Zonama Sekot (Ferroan for "World of
Body and Mind") was a living, sentient world capable of In the following years, stories of the "rogue planet"
traveling through space. Zonama was the planet itself, that had once made living ships circulated among many
while Sekot was the living intelligence of Zonama. in the Outer Rim.

Zonama Sekot was unique from other worlds. Its

north polar region, a spot of pearl white was
surrounded by an entire hemisphere of tropical jungles.
Its southern hemisphere was covered with
impenetrable silvery clouds. Along the equator there
were several rivers, lakes, and small seas. The edge of
the southern hemisphere was also covered by elegant
wisps of wind which frequently broke free to form
spinning storms.
Zonama Sekot's first settlers were black-haired
humanoid Ferroan colonists and red-skinned Langhesi
colonists, and the living world was ruled by Magisters.
The Ferroans were believers in the Potentium view of
the Force. During the time of the Galaic Republic,
Zonama Sekot was rumored to be home to the fastest
ships in the galaxy.
Roughly seven years prior to the Clone Wars, a
series of circumstances led to Zonama Sekot being
attacked by a Republic battle group led by Wilhuff
Tarkin. In response, the world unveiled its hyperdrive
system, which had been built by the Langhesi, and
escaped into the Unknown Regions.
All ships produced by the builders of Zonama
Sekot, were a melding of ordinary manufactured
components such as engines, a hyperdrive,
shields, navigational systems, and other such
equipment with an organic body and "mind" that
was bonded to those for whom it was crafted.
Seed-partners were small thorn-covered
organisms that originated within the tampasi,
from the tree-like boras, of the living planet
Zonama Sekot. As Sekot's self-proclaimed
"children ... cells in my body," the seed-partners
would be introduced to a spacer who desired to
possess one of Sekot's living ships. If the seed-
partners, according to their own desire, attached
themselves to the spacer, a ship would be
produced by those partners working with a team
of Ferroan designers, Langhesi forgers, and giant-
like Jentari shapers.
Seed-partners attached themselves to a spacer
using a spike, which produced an uncomfortable
adhesion, but no wound. Three seed-partners per
spacer was the normal outcome of this election
process, but in the case of Anakin Skywalker and
Obi-Wan Kenobi, fifteen seed partners chose to
become part of their new vessel, the Jabitha.
