Onyx

Onyx is a planet in the Remnant's Earth Sector known for its lawlessness and ability to find just about anything whether legal or not.

History
Conflict is not uncommon, but Onyx is mostly desired as a neutral place where criminals can get together in a semi-neutral setting. The planet runs a regular auction where stolen goods are often bought and sold. Grinta the Hutt and Black Sun were known to have numerous interests on Onyx to the point that the planet's Minister of State was in Grinta's employ.

In 2018, Grinta's agents kidnapped Jedi Knight Ezra Bridger from New York City and took him to Onyx until arrangements could be made to transport Ezra to Nal Hutta. This plan backfired when a rescue was staged by the Spectres and Remnant General Tevin Felth that resulted in the planet's Minister being arrested on orders from Wanda Houston and later sentenced to death by Judge Jennifer Khayman. The auction was also shut down after Ezra's Lightsaber turned up at it and was retrieved by Jacen Solo who scared the entire auction by appearing under his Sith identity of Darth Caedus and claiming the Lightsaber on behalf of the First Order. Since then, the Spectres have often used Onyx for navigational purposes following engagements with the First Order to avoid the First Order being able to trace the Ghost back to Earth.

By 2030, the auctions have resumed and smuggling of contraband to and from the planet has become common. Smugglers are also known to dump cargo at the sight of a Remnant ship as one smuggler did when spotted by Admiral Eli Vanto's ships. This activity also gained the interest of the Remnant Security Bureau which assigned Major Eric Schuyler to handle the matter leading to an operation on Ord Mantell involving Vanto, members of the Spectres, and Hondo Ohnaka.
