Kasiya is a small mineral moon located in the Caelus System that surface is covered with a thin layer of ice over its reddish soil.

Description

The moon is rich in various minerals with a tundraic crust covering its surface and large crevasses of dark blue, almost black-colored silicate breaking through the surface on the landmasses. Dominated by large flats, jagged rock formations, broad mesas, narrow canyons, and sunken waterways. The moon has a cold climate reminiscent of a permanent winter and an atmosphere breathable to oxygen-breathers, such as humans. The tundraic surface is overgrown by dwarf shrubs, sedges, grasses, and mosses. The moon’s low temperatures often leave the surface slippery and somewhat hard to travel. Kasiya is home to several settlements of differing sizes with the most prominent being the local outpost: Port Kasiya.


Geography

The coastline of the supercontinent

While 78% of Kasiya is covered by ocean, the rest of its surface is covered by a single supercontinent made up of high, rocky coastlines with vegetation of a reddish color.

Climate

Kasiya has a cold climate with average temperatures ranging between slightly beneath 0°C and 10°C.

Cities

History

Hidden underneath Kasiya's chill silicate crust are rich deposits of various more or less precious minerals and crystals that are mined from maze-like excavations. First designated as silicate mines, at some point, miners found various crystals, of which some were mistakingly taken for Kyber Crystals but further researches revealed them to be mostly Ranite crystals. In fact, Force-sensitives from Taldryan have proven the existence of Kyber Crystals on Kasiya through their resonance in the Force but of about one million crystals on Kasiya, only a handful is attuned to the Force, making any large scale mining operation too expensive for a viable profit.

However, some of the more sophisticated force-sensitive researchers of Taldryan believe that by placing the remains of the Orb of Pomojema in one of the crevasses with a considerable high concentration of Kyber Crystals could have a positive influence on the growth of crystals attuned to the Force on Kasiya.
