Af'El
Af'El is the homeworld to the Defel. It is a high-gravity planet with no ozone layer and orbits the ultraviolet supergiant Ka'Dedus. Because of the lack of ozone, ultraviolet light passes freely to the surface, while other light wavelengths are blocked by the heavy gases in the planet's atmosphere. Thus, all lifeforms on Af'El can only see in ultraviolet light ranges, and are blind to other wavelengths of light.
Alderaan

Bastion
Bastion is the current capital world of the Imperial Remnant, and the Sector capital for the far flung Braxant Sector in the Outer Rim Territories. 'Bastion' was originally a codename for the Imperial capital as it was moved repeatedly as the Imperials' were forced to retreat again and again during the Galactic Civil War, but the original name for the planet now known as Bastion seems to have been largely forgotten.
It is a planet with varied climates, much like Earth in reality, and is said to be a fairly pleasant world, one of the few in Imperial space with amenities comparable to Coruscant. It is also, however, a heavily defended position, or 'fortress world' as the Empire called such positions in the late stages of the Galactic Civil War. In addition to planetary deflector shield generators, Bastion is the home port of the Braxant Sector Fleet, which includes such prestigious ships as the Star Destroyers Relentless, Ironhand, Tyrannic, and Obliterator. Also, at one point, an unnamed "Super Star Destroyer" (presumably Executor-class) was seen in orbit over Bastion, although it is unknown whether or not this mighty vessel was part of the Braxant Sector Fleet.
During the war with the Yuuzhan Vong, the Imperial forces defending Bastion were heavily damaged and forced to retreat. In the ensuing chaos, the capital city of Bastion, and the Empire itself, was burned to the ground by Yuuzhan Vong orbital strikes. Rebuilding efforts are still underway, and the loss of life was great, but when compared to the absolute devastation of worlds such as Coruscant and Ithor, Bastion got off easy.

Dantooine was mentioned only once in the Star Wars films. In A New Hope, Princess Leia tries to fool Grand Moff Tarkin into believing that the Rebel base is located there. Tarkin replies that Dantooine is "too remote" to use the Death Star on (the deciding factor here seems to be a political and social impact rather than military necessity).
Dantooine was featured in both Knights of the Old Republic games. Dantooine is home to a Jedi enclave which was destroyed by Darth Malak during the Jedi Civil War, it was later rebuilt during the period of KOTOR II.
In Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike Dantooine is shown as a very wet world with perpetual rain which seems to have carved massive canyons and mesas.

Dxun
Dxun is the planet where the Mandalorian Wars began. In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, Dxun is a planet where the Mandalorians plan a great crusade and train to become stronger than the Republic if another war erupts. A moon of Onderon, it is said to be like a sister planet. This is most likely because these bodies are very similar; they even share the same atmosphere.
E
Elom
Elom is home to the Elom and the Elomim. For centuries, the two species species lived unknown to one another, with the Elom living deep underground to access the planets natural springs, and the Elomim living a technologcally advanced life on the surface.
The Elom are primative and peaceful, and evolved on the surface in times long passed, only later adapting to subterranean life, evolving larger claws for digging, and an extreme sensitivity to bright light. They live in communities called cseria, annually meeting to solve problems and to trade goods.
The Elomim became aware of the Elom during expedition in the caves of the A'driannamieq Mountains. Due to the Elomims rigid persceptions of order and structure in their world, they found the concept of the underground Elom difficult to grasp, and accordingly, the mountain explorers never reported to their findings to the Elomim Council.
When Elom became part of the republic, a lucrative trading deal was struck with the Elomim, with precious lommite ore from the planet's crust being exported from the planet. A cave-in during the mining operation revealed the Elom civilisation again to the Elomim, and the Republic began to investgate, finding the Elom to be sentient and giving them land-rights over an area of the planet, and the Elomim began a resource sharing program with their newly discovered co-habitors, although were hestitant in entering such a deal with such an alien culture to them, and the Elom were content to perist in their subterranean existance.
When the Empire assumed control over the planet, the Elomim were forced into slavery and the Eloms' land ownership was revoked. The Elom sought an existance even deeper underground, but occasionally young Elom would journey up to free Elohim slaves using 'mining accidents', despite the disapproving sentiment among the Elom elders.
The Elom rarely journey off the planet Elom, and those who do show sociopathic streaks in there personalities, possibly because of their seperation from there native environment.
Elrood
Elrood is a primary planet in the Elrood System near the Rimma Trade Route. It has two moons, Sharene and Lodos. The sector itself contains the "Drift" and nubulous Dega Gas Clouds making navigation somewhat hazardous for inexperienced pilots.

Endor
(seen in Episode VI)
Endor is the gas giant to the Forest moon of Endor, featured in Return of the Jedi. Endor is located in the remote Moddell Sector. Endor's "forest moon" resembles Earth in many ways, however it seems to have more landmasses than oceans. The landmasses are primarily covered with think forests of massive ancient pine trees, and it has at least one desert region. Endor does not appear to have polar ice caps and may have a temperate climate around the globe.
Ennth
Ennth is a planet that self-destructs via volcanic eruptions of the planet's crust every 7-8 years. It is also the home planet of the Jedi Knight Zekk.
Eos
Eos was a lava planet, and the secret location of a Trade Federation droid factory.

Eos was discovered by one of the Trade Federation's human pilots that overheard a communication about the illegal invasion of Naboo, Vana Sage. The Federation attempted to murder her but she escaped and stumbled upon the small planet. After she had met up with her counterpart, Reti, as well as Reese Dallows and Nym, they went to destroy the droid factory there. Once it was destroyed, the heroes went to help liberate Naboo. Eos was never used again after it was destroyed. Eos is featured in the game Star Wars: Starfighter.

Fest is dominated by steep mountain ranges and deep valleys. Fest appears in two Star Wars games: in Star Wars: Dark Forces, among a rocky and cliffy region is an Imperial research facility on the weapons of the Dark Troopers. In a level of the N64 game Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, in a snowy region resembling Hoth, appears a factory plane specialising in the production of AT-AT and AT-PT.
Fondor
Fondor is a Mid Rim world famous for its orbital shipyards. Darth Vader's Executor-class Super Star Destroyer was constructed over Fondor. The planet became a target during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, though a blast from Centerpoint Station destroyed a portion of the enemy fleet, saving Fondor at the cost of the Hapan war fleet also caught in the blast.
