Description: Beheboth was a desert planet, homeworld of the Tirrith.
Beheboth was colonized by Bothans and Humans, who did not realize that the native Tirrith were sentient. Gideon Longspar enslaved some of the Tirrith, forcing the remainder to help him and his Brigands steal water from the local moisture farms. Luke Skywalker freed the Tirrith with the help of Darial Anglethorn, who later represented Beheboth in the New Republic Senate. Sand lice lived on the world. Thall Joben and the Davani family were native Behebothians.
Prosperity
Prosperity was the largest city on the planet Beheboth, and its only known spaceport. The city was known as Garrotine prior to the defeat of the local warlord known as Gideon Longspar. By 8 ABY the city had a central avenue and at least a dozen cantinas.
Outpost B-2
Outpost B-2 was initially the headquarters of Gideon Longspar, before becoming a New Republic outpost.
Hebofyrd
Hebofyrd was a city on Beheboth. It was known to have a wild festival night. The Davani family was possibly from it.
