Background: Malastare was the high-gravity homeworld of the quadrupedal Dug race, on the Hydian Way.
Malastare was located within the system of the same name, which occupied the Dustig sector of the Mid Rim. The world acted as a junction between the Hydian Way hyperspace route—which connected it to ZeHeth and Darkknell—and the Biox Detour, which linked Malastare to the Ring of Kafrene mining colony.
The surface of Malastare was heavily forested, and its core was home to large reserves of fuel. As a result, the native Dugs cleared large portions of land, constructing refineries to extract the fuel vital to its economy. Podracing was a popular sport on Malastare.
