The Phraetiss System is located near the edge of what is commonly thought of as the center of the galaxy. It is almost completely barren of local life forms, except for the small reptilian Delcut of the planet Phraetiss. Known throughout the galaxy by scientists for its strange adaptive nature, and regenerative abilities. Delcut are one of the most popular attractions in Farfin zoos across the sector. Many patrons of these establishments are encouraged to fire upon the Delcut with blasters to keep their scarred skin from healing.

This system is where the little known battle of Pelemikhar took place, some time during or after the Clone Wars, when two Republic Fleets finally caught up with the mutinous Fleet Thirteen. In the battle over a hundred ships on both sides were either destroyed or damaged, leaving their remains orbiting the gas giant Pelemikhar.

Argegoth, the largest planet in and gas giant in this system is the only known location of the obsolete metal Argium, which was the site of the Argium rush of local legend. Argium was once highly valuable and had many decorative uses until recent chemical compounds were able to replace it.

The ice formations of Legodyn, made wildly popular by retired explorer Dertiss Waynog in her holo-novel Alive Ice, can be found in this system. Although it has been strongly advised by Imperial scientists that all visitors to this system avoid the planet Legodyn, crazed fans of the holo-novel have recently ignored this and after landing on the planet without proper safety equipment, many have died or disappeared.
