Italbos, a planet situated within the Mid Rim, was found around 3963 BBY. Just as the Metellos Exchange was preparing to auction off the rights to this world, Marn Hierogryph, Jarael, and Rohlan Dyre attempted a swindle. Their scheme involved asserting that an Italbos native was present to collect their portion of the proceeds from the transaction. Following Gryph's encounter with Nunk Plaarvin, Zayne Carrick informed those at the auction that Italbos was likely uninhabitable and lacked verified mineral wealth; nevertheless, the rights to the planet were sold regardless.
