The Scar of Troithe represented a continent located on the planet of Troithe, characterized by extensive mining operations. This continent, devoid of any indigenous life, was a flattened landscape marked by numerous ravines and canyons during the era of the Galactic Civil War. Approximately around 5 ABY, the Galactic Empire through its 204th Imperial Fighter Wing, seized control of the Core Nine mining megafacility. This megafacility was the sole surviving one of its kind, having avoided being dismantled. The Empire suspected that elements of the New Republic's 61st Mobile Infantry were also interested in utilizing it. Upon discovering the 204th's diversion towards Core Nine, the 61st Mobile Infantry initiated an assault on the facility, leading to the fighter wing's withdrawal aboard the only freighter present.
The Scar of Troithe made its debut in the 2020 novel titled Shadow Fall, which was penned by Alexander Freed.
