Kinoss, a planetary body, resided in the Kinoss system, which itself was found within the Unknown Regions. This planet fell within the territorial boundaries of the Chiss Ascendancy. The aforementioned system served as the location where a Chiss war vessel, helmed by Mid Captain Irizi'ar'alani (Ziara), obliterated a quartet of Lioaoin corsair ships. These corsairs had been pursuing a Chiss freighter being piloted by Pathfinder Qilori from Uandualon, together with Chiss Junior Commander Mitth'raw'nuru (Thrawn). This brief conflict signaled the beginning of the Chiss Lioaoin pirate campaign. The planet was called Kinoss.
