Shi

Location

The Planet Shi lies within the Unknown Regions, uncharted regions of space Northwest of the Deep Core. Southwest of the planet Mobus lies a thick toxic cloud and is a very dangerous place to fly through. This large toxic cloud shrouding the planet is also as the Emerald Veil, this for the emerald green color it has and its thickness. The Radiationlevel is high enough to eat its way through any hull and Even with modern technology and shielding, it’s still not recommended to fly through the veil.

Because of it’s heavy radiation levels, it disrupted any way of scanning and any scouting force through it for millennia of time. This protected Shi from alien invaders so that it could remain hidden for ages. There have been few noted visits to Shi during the ages, the last noted in the history pages were dated back to the birth of the Old Republic, where a small raider fleet visited the planet and engaged in a full scale assault against the Planet's people.

About one light-year behind the Emerald Veil lies the Sollet system, a small system that could be easily hidden behind the large green cloud. The fourth planet of that system is Shi, in modern times a wasteland planet, but once was a planet full of life.

Planet info

The Planet orbits one sun and is the fourth planet of the system. It has two moons orbiting around the planet, one called ‘Silivren’, which means ‘Silver’ in native tongue of the Valheru, and the other called ‘Amlug’, or ‘Dragon’ in native.

The diameter of the planet is approximately 9.432 kilometer and is considered to be a medium classed planet. A year on Shi exists of four-hundred and twelve days, because of this the planet’s climates vary throughout five additional seasons. Winter, Spring, Summer, Rain Season and Fall. Temperatures range from -24 degrees Celsius to a 65 degrees Celsius.

The Atmosphere of the planet has a high oxygen content with little other gasses. Though the Oxygen level is still below the toxic threshold, it’s advised to bring breathing masks when visiting the planet.

Surface

World Map of Shi (click to enlarge)

The Planet's surface is covered mostly with water, and has two large landmasses. The Smaller landmass, Ishrai, was a barren and mountainous waves cover the land. While the larger continenet, Ceria Isliana, was rich with plantlife and had large grass plains. Bwtween the two large landmasses are endless oceans, rich with life. The planets hot and oxygen rich climate caused the melting of the polar caps centuries before any sentient being walked upon Shi, this made only the two larger landmasses rise from the oceans.

The Ocean east of Ishrai and west of Ceria Isliana is called 'Ecienamar' or ' Endless Water' and the ocean west of Ishrai and east of Ceria Isliana is called 'Erum Duriël' or 'Heavens Tears' as the sea is wild and hard to sail through.

During the attack by the raider fleet last visiting Shi, they bombarded most of the planet from space, dessimating the planet, causing the smaller continent to be filled with Vulcano's, eradicating all signs of life. While the green plains of Ceria Isliana were scorched it's rick forests burned.

Ishrai

Ishrai, meaning 'Land of Fire' in Valheru tongue, is the smaller one of the two continents, it's surface is rugged and barren, covered with mountains and craters. There was one large canyon running from the south of the continent all the way up to the north. Within it the Valkyri lived for millenia. With their birdlike behaviour and hive like hierarchy, they formed a huge group that worked together in order to guarentee their survival.

There were no true cities found of the Valkyri, only a large labyrinth of tunnels and caves within the canyon, which was considered their capital. Through this canyon runs a large river, eventually flowing into a large lake at the south of the continent. The native species dug trenches to guide the stream of water through the caverns in the canyon, creating a waterway through their tunnels so fresh water could be supplied where needed.

This very day, the continent is scorched and filled with volcanos throwing poisonous gasses over the lands and acids into the water, and decimated any possibilities of life.

Ceria Isliana

The larger continent of the two is called Ceria Isliana, 'Green Ocean' in native Valheru tongue. This larger continent is home to the Valheru, who built several large cities scattered on the lands. The north of the lands are rugged, large mountains seperate the cold north with the warmed middle part of the continent. The North is called 'Sharan Heren Imhar' or 'Lord Valheru's Embrace' in native tongue. The name is in reference to the mountains to the south and the sea to the north, creating a natural bottleneck. The middle is called 'Cerianes Ish' or 'Emerald Flame' in native and is covered with a huge grass plain with hills and small forests across it. To the west is a large canyon called 'Eranor Remiël' or 'Deadeye Cliff' in native, often used by the dragonriders for training as the massive towers of solid rock who cover the bottom of the canyon are often dangerous.

In the east are small forests and mountainsides that work as a barrier between land and sea. South of the great grass plain is the 'Buriën Eruwa' or 'Forest of Eruwa' as they called it. It is a very dense forest that covers a large portion of land. The Forest stands as a massive border between the Valheru and the Valkyri. Though sometimes conflicts arise when the border is crossed, it keeps both races at bay. At the southern most tip is the Valkyri stronghold of Calagnasan and houses a large Valkyri made canyon that houses them.

Discovery and Destruction

The planet eventually was settled by the recently formed Old Republic, who wanted to harvest resources from the rich and unspoiled planet. When the Valheru refused to cooperate and hand over their lands the Republic didn’t listen. The Valheru retaliated, and used aggression to send the Republic forces back into space.

The revenge of the raider fleet that followed was swift and brutal. The Valheru were considered savage wild men and needed to be either captured or killed. As the Valheru had no real technology thus they were easily defeated by the Republic, and the race soon twirled into extinction as the planet they inhabited was made scorched and barren.

At the present the planet is scarred with craters and wastelands due to a war in the early days of the Old Republic Raider Fleet. Though parts of the planet started to bloom again, others are still a wasteland filled with ruins of two mighty civilisations. It was believed that the planet held up to eight million inhabitants over a span of two continents. There are also reports of Archaeologists finding fossils of large reptilians, like Kryat Dragons. Also two humanoid species, the Valheru together with relics and castles. While the Valkyri was found within caverns and were more structured to be like birds in some way. Hollow bones and thin bone structures to lessen weight.

They say some of the Valheru survived the onslaught of the Raider Fleet and lived in various regions of the Galaxy during the days of the old republic. It is believed that their bloodline has ran so thin during the ages, that there are no true Valheru present anymore.
