Geography

Barren and mountainous, the surface of Krayiss II is an extremely unforgiving enviroment to any who dare to venture there. Massive seas of sand dominate the landscape, making travelling by foot across the harsh enviroment nearly impossible. These great expanses of sand and dirt are also coupled with the frequent mountains spread throughout the planet's surface. These mountains are often seen as great spikes of rock jutting out from the thick layer of sand covering the landscape. While the majority of the lanscape is a barren and harsh envoroment, the large and expansive deserts are pockmarked with small bodies of water, saturated with salt. Larger bodies of water are a rarer occurance, and often exist as anomolies uncommon to Krayiss II's surface. These larger bodies of water separate Krayiss II's great deserts by establishing boundaries used as guidelines for mapping the planet's surface. Due to it's arid climate, Kraiss II is largely prone to enormouse sandstorms as great gusts of wind pick up the loose sand from the dry surface of the planet's landscape, carrying it over an incredible distance. Often, these sandstorms can leave thick layers of sand covering entire mountains, concealing and uncovering these great monoliths with each passing hour. These sandstorms can transport large volumes of sand unexpectedly, ensuring that anyone unprepared for such an occurance perish.

Over the years during the reign of the Ancient Sith Empire, Krath sorceries have left their mark on the planet in the form of terrifying electrical storms. These storms occur frequently and at random; the most frequent occurances of these lightning storms are most often seen during a sandstorm, when the unbalanced electrical charges in the air induce these storms in the form of powerful elecrostatic discharges, clinging to the airborne unbalanced particles carried by the wind.

Laime iv Hadzuska

Meaning "Land of Shadow," these lands are in a state of perpetual darkness, induced by the centuries of Krath sorceries and Dark Side worship of the planet's ancient inhabitants. The Land of Shadow is full of dangers as electrical Force Storms are most common here, and can last weeks, if not months. Contained within these perilous lands is the Ancient Sith Empire Library-Temple which exists as the source of the Dark Side energies that keep these mysterious lands shrouded in infinite blackness. Small oases of water with only lesser salt concentrations that tap into the deep water table are more commonplace throughout the lanscape than the planet's other continents, and are most commonly used as sustenance for wandering packs of creatures drawn to the Dark Side energies permeated throughout these dark lands. Examples of these may include wild Tuk'ata and Terentatek that roam the vast deserts in search of prey.

Cut off from surrounding continents by the salt-saturated Jurin iv Karal Kraujas (Sea of Royal Blood), the Land of Shadow is isolated from the surrounding regions, with the exception of the treacherous Koridorius iv Th'xarnait (Corridor of Servants). Located in the south-eastern hemisphere, it is nearly impossible to attain accurate measurements through the impenetrable shroud. However, it is estimated to contain about 4,200 miles of land running east to west, with only 1,400 miles of land running north to south. Temperatures in the Land of Shadow remain below freezing, due to the lingering effects of Krath sorcery. On average, temperatures range from between -15 degrees Celsius to -45 degrees Celsius in this unforgiving region.

Planetary History

Ancient Sith Empire (~14,000 BBY- 4,000 BBY)

In the years preceding 14,000 BBY, a great Sith library-temple was founded on the planet Krayiss II, a place for Magicians, Sorcerers and Kissai to gather and meditate upon their knowledge gained from experiments conducted within the inatricate temple complex. Over the years, an extensive wealth of knowledge was contained within the sacred landmark, the sum of countless experiments focused on discovering and unlocking the secrets of the Force. These experiments resulted ultimately in creating a shroud of pure darkness over the desert continent of Laime iv Hadzuska, burying the planet in a perpetual darkness concealing the library-temple's true location. Other experiments were conducted by Sith Alchemists, who had created monstrosities of varying shapes and sizes to inhabit the surafce of Krayiss II and serve for the horrifying amusements of the Sith that had created them. Eventually, these Sithspawn were employed to serve a greater role - to defend Krayiss II from any who might dare tresspass; the elite of these were often chosen as personal bodyguards or guardians of the Sith library-temple. However, the temple became abandoned circa 14,000 BBY, although the spirits of those Sith who inhabited the place still remained while the legacy of their experiments were preserved.
