Telos IV is a fictional planet in the Star Wars Expanded Universe. Telos was originally featured in the Star Wars: Jedi Apprentice series. The planet is also mentioned in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and is featured in the video game duology Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, produced by LucasArts and Obsidian Entertainment.
Telos was mentioned in the first installment as the homeworld of character Carth Onasi, from which he fled after it was bombed by a Sith fleet during the Jedi Civil War. During the second game, five years later, restoration efforts are underway to help return the planet to its prior state. The efforts are coordinated from Citadel Station, a giant space station orbiting the planet, not unlike part of a shell. This effort is primarily being run by the Ithorians of planet Ithor, who are experts in planetary restoration. The success of the planetary restoration would have meant the continuation of other planetary restoration efforts for other worlds devastated in the Sith bombings; alternatively, its failure would doom the planet, (and by extension, due to the discontinuation of restoration projects) and all the other devastated worlds. On the planet of Telos itself, a secret academy, run by the Jedi Master Atris, lies hidden under the northern polar ice cap.
Thousands of years later, Telos has recovered and become a popular destination for intergalactic tourists. About twelve years before the Battle of Naboo, the former padawan Xanatos turned the planet upside down in his pursuit for personal power. Only the intervention of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi thwarted Xanatos' plans, and helped return the planet to its rightful government, as described in the Star Wars Jedi Apprentice novel The Day of Reckoning.
