[[Deva]] is the first planet of the Karana System, the closest to the sun, Shahora. Most of it is wasteland and barren desert. A lot of volcanoes are active and a few rare dormant volcanoes. A few wondrous sites are the molten lava rivers flowing on different parts of the planet. Only two colonies are present on the planet, Gulvana and Proxima. Both these colonies are populated by about 500,000 Karanans each, who left their home planet to relocate due to the system civil war.

History

The second planet to be colonized by the native Karanans, hellish but mineral rich Deva became as much an engineering experiment as an additional deterrent to civil unrest. Under construction for several years prior, the first of two subterranean mining colonies, Gulvana, became operational shortly before the outbreak of the system’s civil war. The Proxima colony was completed two years into the conflict, rushed into service by a military hungry for lommite superior to the kiirium in conventional use. With the reformist Kilad faction being nearly stamped out on Sahare, the Vodaha government loosened its strict conscription policy. Eligible males who didn’t wish to join the war on the front lines were now given the choice to serve a set ten-year term in the colonial mines. The population’s greatest boost, however, came from the addition of a third immigrant stratum, enslaved prisoners of war and exiled political dissidents.

The Emperor’s Hammer expanded and modernized both facilities, and with their guidance the population rose and stabilized from four hundred thousand to nearly a million. The Planetary Governor, recently appointed under by order of the EH Grand Moff, is directing the efficient operation of the mining colonies, adding yet another source of materiel for the Imperial war machine.

Deva served as the home of Clan Taldryan’s Sith House Archanis, before the Exodus.
