Caraad, a planet found within the galaxy, was a frigid and mountainous sphere. It featured a city constructed within the planet's snow-covered mountain ranges. Arcona, Aqualish, humans, and Tarlafar all called Caraad home. In approximately 18 BBY, Cad Bane, the bounty hunter, obtained information from a resident indicating the presence of a possibly-Force-sensitive child. Bane, accompanied by his butler droid Todo 360, journeyed to Caraad, abducted the child named Bayrn, and subsequently handed them over to the Galactic Empire. In return, they received the M-count bounty offered for acquiring Force-sensitive individuals.
The initial appearance of Caraad was in "Identity Crisis," the eleventh installment of Star Wars: The Bad Batch, an animated television series. This episode was part of the third season and debuted on April 3, 2024. Even though the episode did not name Caraad, its identification was confirmed through the Databank available on StarWars.com.
