Post-Imperial Period
In 35 ABY Nfolgai, once again, attracted the attention of outsiders. A expedition of the One Sith, lead by the Duros Sith Lord Yobd Nan, landed on the planet. They immediately gained the attention of the “native” population: the remaining Mrlssi and Draethos tribes stalked the One Sith expedition. The former slave races, now savage and perfectly adapted to the planet, not to mention possessing an unusually strong connection to the Dark Side of the Force, intrigued the One Sith.
As they explored the planet, the expedition fought repeated battles with the savage tribesmen. The One Sith destroyed several pockets of the savage former slaves, but were weakened in the effort. Eventually, the expedition found what it had been after, the tomb of Sorzus Syn. By 36 ABY they had set up a base camp at the entrance to the tomb, but were still making preparations to enter the structure.
As these preparations neared their end a new threat appeared in the system: the combined forces of four of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood’s clans and houses (someone fill this in later), descended upon the Nfolgai System. The meager space force protecting the planet was swiftly brushed aside by the might of the Brotherhood. Within days troops were landing on the surface, vying, both with the One Sith and each other, for control of the world.
Geography
Nfolgai has a harsh climate and hazardous terrain. Over half of the world’s surface is desert, with many rainforest type valleys scattered throughout the mountain ranges. The equatorial region of Nfolgai consists of vast, high plateaus open to the north, and mountain chains on the east and west, with scorching hot lowlands beyond.
The mountains are a thick mass of overgrown jungles and forgotten ruins. The ground beneath is inhabited by dense, tangled growths of vines, shrubs and small trees. The vegetation is sufficiently dense and hinders movement of sentients and other species, requiring that travellers ‘cut’ their way through.
In the lower valleys, there are unforgiving rain forests with a humidity-factor of 90 percent. Restricting the traversion of many areas by the poor penetration of sunlight to ground level. Water is abundant here, most of the planet’s water sources are located in these areas.

Landmarks
While not the only mausoleum on the planet, the dominant landmark of the southern hemisphere is the monolithic Mausoleum of Sorzus Syn. Situated deep in the rain forests and frequently used as a camp for the tribal Mrlssi and Draethos species, the sharp pyramidal structure shares the architectural designs found on other Sith worlds like Ziost and Korriban. Carved into the sides of a mountain, its vast interior is littered with the corpses of explorers killed by the mausoleum-traps and snares.
