Stygeon Prime, also known simply as Stygeon, was a mountainous, snowy planet located in the Stygeon system of the Outer Rim Territories' Nuiri sector.[10] The world's blizzard conditions made it the perfect location for a prison, as prisoners attempting escape would not survive outside the prison walls unless they could use a Tibidee to fly them to safety.[8] During the Clone Wars, the Sith Lords Darth Tyranus and Darth Sidious imprisoned Sidious's former apprentice Maul in the Spire, a Confederate prison on Stygeon Prime. Maul was later broken out by Mandalorian forces that were part of the Shadow Collective.[10] After the Clone Wars, the planet was occupied by the Galactic Empire.[9]
