Sran, a dusty planet frequently assaulted by dust storms, was a rocky world located in the Ash Worlds. Following the Battle of Galov, where the Galactic Republic along with the Jedi Order apprehended many Nihil marauders, including Tempest Runner Lourna Dee, the Nihil Strike Andrik Keller made his way to Sran after he fled. While in a cantina on Sran, Keller met a Dowutin who, unbeknownst to him, was actually [Pan Eyta](/article/pan_eyta], a former Tempest Runner with vengeance on Dee's mind. Upon discovering Dee's situation, Eyta killed Keller and then left Sran.
The audio drama The High Republic: Tempest Runner, a canon work written by Cavan Scott and released in 2021, marked the initial appearance of Sran. Its name is the same as that of the Sran system from the Star Wars Legends continuity, which was first introduced in The Essential Atlas, a reference book authored by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace in 2009.
