Antared III

Antared III was a terrestrial celestial body located in the Antared system, a part of the Esstran sector in the Trans-Hydian portion of the Outer Rim Territories. During the Galactic Civil War, it hosted the hideout of Yesgar, the leader of a group of pirates.
==Behind the scenes==
Antared III was introduced in Star Wars Gamemaster Handbook, a 1993 sourcebook published by West End Games for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. In the game, the celestial body was mentioned in a hypothetical example in a section advising gamemaster players on the use of various paper handouts in their games. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas later placed the Antared system in grid square Q-4. The book's co-author Jason Fry has stated that the star systems listed in the Appendix section of The Essential Atlas are named after the most prominent planets or celestial bodies located in those systems. This article therefore considers the existence of Antared III to be canonical with respect to the Star Wars Legends continuity.
