Vortex is a star system in the Glythe sector of Star Wars: Rebellion. Sharp winds batter this drab planet, which the Vors inhabit; they are winged but feel no emotion. Their society revolves around the Cathedral of Winds, a structure that resonates with musical tones as gusts hit it.[1]

In the game

Vortex is a Rim system.[1][2] Its sector is used only in large and huge galaxies.[3][4] The 25th Anniversary Community Patch puts a different world, Cantonica, in this system's place.[5]
