Ojom, the Deep Core planet in the galaxy, served as the original homeworld for the Besalisk species. Two notable Besalisks hailing from Ojom include chef Dexter Jettster and Jedi Master Pong Krell.
The initial mention of Ojom occurred in "Galactic Power Brokers," a Star Wars Legends piece authored by J.D. Wiker. This article appeared within the tenth issue of Star Wars Gamer back in 2002. Its place in canon was solidified with its inclusion in the reference book Ultimate Star Wars, which saw publication in 2015.
