Rook's Haven

Overview
Rook's Haven was the largest city on the planet of Zallos I. It primarily served as a trading post and star port that served ships moving through the Betseeda System. Filled with cantinas, gambling dens, and other businesses of ill repute, it had a reputation as dangerous and wild.

During the Rebellion
Rook's Haven was thousands of years old by the start of the Galactic Civil War. However, when the Betseeda System was occupied by the Imperial Navy in 4 BBY, they made no attempt to impose order or structure on the wild streets of Rook's Haven. The planet remained neutral from official combat, but both the Empire and the Rebellion had spies and informants located in the city.

Members of the fighter unit Arrow Squadron also operated on occasion in the city, mostly to gather intelligence and spy on known Imperial collaborators. A fierce shootout also erupted in the streets of Rook's Haven when Arrow Squadron members conducted the rescue of one of their pilots, Jev Talianos, who had been captured by bounty hunters.

With no official government or leader, enforcement of any kind of rule was often left to the local crime boss in charge.
