Pieldi was a heavenly body situated within the Pieldi system of the Juvex sector. This sector was found within the Senex-Juvex area, which itself was within the Western Reaches section of the Mid Rim. The planet existed on the hyperlane called the Senex-Juvex Loop, linking it with both the Pirralor and Velga systems. Furthermore, the Agarix Trade Route provided a connection to the Dramassia system. Pieldi operated as a bustling spaceport and, similar to other worlds in Senex-Juvex, was governed by the aristocratic Ancient Houses of that region.
The reference book The Essential Atlas, which was released in 2009 and written by Daniel Wallace along with Jason Fry, first presented Pieldi to the audience, locating it within grid L-18.
