Novor

Novor was a terrestrial astronomical object where a children's medcenter run by the Sisters of the Ninth Plane was located during the High Republic Era. At one point, the Hutt Clan sent the enforcer Ola Hest to Novor to collect protection money from the medcenter. After the Sisters refused to pay and told Hest to leave, she aimed her frigate's thrusters at the building, bringing it down and killing everyone inside. She later claimed that the incident was an accident.

Eventually, Hest left Novor and was tracked down and captured by the "Blade of Bardotta"—the title earned by Jedi Master Porter Engle after a five-day siege on the planet Bardotta. In 231 BBY, while imprisoned aboard the Galactic Republic prison ship Restitution, Nihil Tempest Runner Lourna Dee was informed of Hest's actions on Novor by fellow prisoner Sestin Blin.

Novor was mentioned in the current Star Wars canon in The High Republic: Tempest Runner, a 2021 audio drama written by Cavan Scott and published as a part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's Phase I. The spelling of the celestial body's name was later confirmed with the release of the audio drama's script in 2022.

In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the planet Novor 23 was created by Craig Robert Carey and J. Michael Denbo for Cracken's Rebel Operatives, a 1994 sourcebook published for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. The Novor system in which Novor 23 was located was later identified by name in the 1997 Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game sourcebook Secrets of the Sisar Run.
