The Suhuurmin system, a star system, resided in the Quence sector of the Outer Rim Territories within the galaxy. During the Galactic Civil War, a struggle between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance, an unsanctioned group of Imperial slavers functioned from the Suhuurmin system. The Mantis Syndicate, a bounty hunter organization, eradicated this group sometime between 0 ABY and 4 ABY.
The Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game supplement Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim, released in 1993 and authored by Simon Smith and Eric S. Trautmann for West End Games, initially introduced the Suhuurmin system. The Online Companion on StarWars.com for the 2009 reference work The Essential Atlas located the system at grid coordinate P-18.
