A collection of spinning asteroids occupied the Pindra system, which was located within the Slice region of the Inner Rim. During 5 ABY, amidst the ongoing Galactic Civil War, Willham Burke, a navy officer serving the New Republic, orchestrated a strategic ambush for the fleet commanded by Admiral Ledre Okins of the Galactic Empire. Burke strategically positioned a grav trap within the asteroids scattered throughout the Pindra system, successfully luring Okins into redirecting critical elements of his fleet towards that location. The Imperial forces were ensnared, paving the way for Burke's subsequent defeat of Okins in the Colla system.
The Pindra system's asteroids first appeared in the 2012 sourcebook, The Essential Guide to Warfare, authored by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart. The StarWars.com Online Companion supplementing the 2009 sourcebook, The Essential Atlas, identified the system's location, and consequently the asteroids' location, as grid square N-9.
