Jaguada, a planet characterized by its desert landscape, held significant importance among the ancient worlds of the Sith. The chronicles tell of Darth Noctyss, a Sith Lord, who conducted investigations there, ultimately guiding her to the forgotten Sith realm of Exegol in her pursuit of immortality. During the time of the Galactic Republic, Jaguada, along with other worlds like Malachor, Ziost, and Rhelg, was placed under quarantine, with its Sith connections concealed from historical records.
The world of Jaguada was initially referenced within the official Star Wars canon in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, authored by Pablo Hidalgo and released in 2019. Jaguada then made its debut canonical appearance in the 2020 short story titled "A Life Immortal," penned by George Mann and visually brought to life by Grant Griffin. Within the Star Wars Legends continuity, Jaguada was first seen as a holographic depiction of the Jaguada system in its entirety, appearing in the 2005 novel Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader, written by James Luceno.
