Description
The Forests of Ostara
Despite being temperate and habitable, the jungles of Ostara pose major challenges for its inhabitants. Due to the moon's constant rains and wet climate, mechanical devices do not last long and require continuous maintenance. Moreover, the moon is devoid of any resources valuable to the syndicate and has been seen as little more than an overgrown asteroid.
Ostara’s biosphere is big and varied, featuring numerous of the Galaxy’s most recognizable and infamous predators. At least two different types of rancor have been noted to roam the moon. With the unusual concentration of predatory animals, colonization was overlooked by the Empire.
Although unimportant to the members of the Caelus Cartel, for the members of Taldryan attuned to the Force, Ostara revealed itself to be balanced in the Force, making it a point of interest for Taldryan as they see the possibility to erect temples for themselves on the moon.
