Ambria was an unpleasant desert planet, in tune with the dark side of the Force, that was located in the galaxy's Inner Rim. At some point, a human female was seen beside a lake on Ambria. It was rumored that Darth Bane, creator of the Rule of Two and the Great Plan, was killed by his Sith apprentice Darth Zannah in a duel on Ambria.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Ambria was first mentioned in the current Star Wars canon in the forty-seventh issue of the De Agostini magazine Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon,[5] published around November 25, 2015.[6] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, Ambria first appeared in the third issue of the Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi comic miniseries, written by Tom Veitch, penciled by Janine Johnston, and published by Dark Horse Comics[7] on December 21, 1993.[8] The planet was first pictured in the second issue of De Agostini's Star Wars Helmet Collection magazine series, published in 2016. The issue used a comic image featuring a woman beside a lake[3] originally printed in Tales of the Jedi 3[7] to depict the planet.[3] In the comic, the woman and the lake in question were identified as Nomi Sunrider and Lake Natth respectively[7] but this is not confirmed to also be the case in canon.

This article treats Ambria as one such homeworld with regard to the Ambrian staga species.
