Orth is a rust colored moon with a nitrogen-rich atmosphere. Its sole settlement is an immense structure which arose as a prison for the Empire during its waning days.
Description
Orth is a mountainous moon with a nitrogen-rich atmosphere, where Emperor Palpatine ordered the construction of a prison during the colonization of the system due to its distance from the Galactic Core. After the fall of the Empire, the Syndicate continued to use the moon's prison for their own needs.
Notable Landmarks
The Bastion, also known as Orth prison, is a remote prison fortress located on the moon Orth. It is operated by the Caelus Security and is made up from the damaged remains of an Imperial I-class Star Destroyer of the same name that had served as the former lead ship of the imperial Garrison stationed within the Caelus System before the fall of the Galactic Empire with well organized groups of inmates utilizing the Bastion for black market operations, selling spare parts from the Bastion through out the system.
History
Pre-Taldryan
Sanctioned shortly after the discovery of the Caelus system and the sanctioning to colonize it for the Empire, the Empire constructed a prison fortress on Orth to house criminals that would then be used as laborers on the various construction sites that arose with the plans of colonizing the system.
