Aurimaus

Aurimaus was an astronomical object located in Wild Space's Aurimaus system. At some point during the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire's Tempest Force unit, which included stormtrooper Hume Tarl, participated in a military operation at Aurimaus.
Later, when the journalist Cindel Towani interviewed Tarl about the Battle of Endor of 4 ABY, the latter mentioned the operation at Aurimaus among other engagements the Tempest Force had been involved in. The interview was eventually included in Towani's 41 ABY work Portraits of the Galactic Civil War.
==Behind the scenes==
Aurimaus was mentioned in the 2012 reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare, authored by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart. Fry later noted in his personal blog that in the section of the book containing the interview with Hume Tarl, the locations that were new to the Star Wars franchise, such as Aurimaus, were introduced in order to make the Star Wars galaxy seem an expansive setting. The StarWars.com Online Companion to the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Aurimaus system, and therefore the celestial body itself, in grid square I-16.
