Tythos

Tythos was a star in the Tython system that was located within the galaxy's Deep Core region. The star was orbited by eleven planets, including Tython, the birthplace of the mystic Je'daii Order. Tythos appeared from space to be yellow-orange in color. More than a millennium after the year 36,453 BBY, the non–Force-sensitive settlers of Tython traveled toward the planet's sun and colonized the innermost planets of the star system. Tythos could be seen from the worlds of Tython and Shikaakwa on several occasions during the subsequent thousands of years, and by 25,793 BBY, the Je'daii Temple Master Kora Ryo had made a habit of meditating on Tython before the view of setting Tythos.
==Description==
Tythos was a star in the Tython system that was located within the galaxy's Deep Core region. The star was orbited by eleven planets—hot Sunspot and Malterra, the two innermost planets that rotated around Tythos in opposite directions, the manufacturing world of Nox, the arid planet Krev Coeur, Tython, the birthplace of the mystic Je'daii Order, the important planets of Kalimahr and Shikaakwa, the verdant planet Ska Gora, the gas giants Obri and Mawr, and, finally, cold Furies Gate, the outermost planet. Scientists speculated that Sunspot had originally been a rogue planetoid that had been captured by the gravitational pull of Tythos. A number of moons orbited the planets in turn—Ashla and Bogan circled Tython, Kalimahr had three natural satellites, both Shikaakwa and Ska Gora each had a single moon, while Obri and Mawr, also known as "the Giants," had three and seven moons, respectively. Following the settlement of the Tython system, Furies Gate also acquired a satellite in the form of a space station called Fury Station. Tythos appeared from space to be yellow-orange in color.Dawn of the Jedi: The Prisoner of Bogan 3The Old Republic—The Lost Suns 5

==Behind the scenes==
Tythos was first pictured in the entry for Tython in The Holonet feature of the official website for Star Wars: The Old Republic—a 2011 massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by BioWare. The star was depicted in a schematic of the Tython system. Since its establishment in 2008, The Old Republic website has gone through a number of changes, resulting in the removal of some of the features and images that were originally located there, including the aforementioned schematic.

The star's name was provided in Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi 0, a preview issue of the Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi series of comics. The issue was published on February 1, 2012, and was written by John Ostrander and penciled by Jan Duursema.
