Odona, a planet situated in the Outer Rim Territories, was a desolate and rugged world characterized by its rocky terrain. Vast seas also encompassed significant portions of its surface. Beneath the remnants of structures portraying four-armed combatants, Odona possessed a labyrinth of passageways and concealed recesses, which served as havens for pirates and smugglers seeking to evade the reach of the Galactic Empire.
Following the Battle of Yavin, Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa embarked on a journey to Odona in their quest to locate a fresh headquarters for the Rebel Alliance. A fierce blizzard nearly resulted in their demise due to hypothermia; furthermore, Frax, a resentful Nikto, met his end by freezing solid as he tried to assassinate Organa.
