Chorax, a planet situated in the Rachuk sector between Commenor and Talasea, existed as the only planetary body within the Chorax system. This system served as a refuge for both pirates and smugglers.
During the era of the Galactic Civil War, the Rebel starship named Nonnah experienced a crash landing on Chorax. Following this event, Rogue Squadron was compelled to rescue the stranded crew from the pursuing Imperial troops.
In the year 6 ABY, amidst the Core Campaign, the Imperial Interdictor-class heavy cruiser known as the Black Asp executed an ambush on the yacht Pulsar Skate while it was within the system. Later, during the Bacta War, Rogue Squadron conducted a raid on the Thyferran Convoy Delta-Two-Niner while it was traversing the Chorax system.
