Krayiss II is a planet located in the Stygian Caldera nebula region of the Outer Rim. Considered one of five sacred worlds of the ancient Sith civilization that formed the heart of the Sith Empire. Krayiss II is home to a massive library-temple that is a place of meditation and study for Sith sorcerers. Sometime after 14,000 BBY the world was somehow buried and forgotten, a lonesome obelisk becoming the only remnant of long gone Sith supremacy
History
Considered a sacred planet, Krayiss II attracted Sorcerers, Magicians, and Kissai to the planet's Sith library-temple. Founded in 14,000 BBY, the library-temple served as a pilgrimage for those who wished to push the limits of the Dark Side and conduct dark side experiments.
Events that have been lost to history led to the abandonment of the library-temple and concealment within the Dark Side of the Force. By 4,000 BBY the library-temple was completely entombed below the surface of Krayiss II, except for an obelisk that extended from the top of the structure. Accessible only through meditation and incantations, the obelisk serves as the gateway to elevating the library-temple from Krayiss II's surface.
Over the course of ten thousand years, the library-temple serves as a beacon for all those who could sense the Force. Jedi and Sith alike traveled to the obelisk monument reciting incantations and succeeding in elevating the library-temple to Krayiss II's surface. Each attempt was met with failure as the Sith spirit guarding the structure deemed those attempting to access the library-temple's secret unworthy. As of 4,000 BBY the structure was known to be guarded by a black cloaked Sith spirit, the spirit of Jedi Master Jev Sunrider, and two additional disposed Jedi Masters.
In 34 ABY, elements of the One Sith occupied Krayiss II in an attempt to unearth the secrets of the ancient library-temple. The One Sith expedition was led by human Sith Lord, his Nagai acolyte, and two dozen Sith aspirants. Unable to bypass the Sith Spirit guarding the library-temple, the one Sith established a base camp and small starport to sustain operations on the planet's surface. As of 36 ABY, the One Sith expedition had scoured Krayiss II and uncovered several Sith scrolls and artifacts.

Geography
Krayiss II is a desolate and pitiless world pocked with rocky badlands, black sand desert wastes, and mountainous regions. Once home to outposts and small settlements, Krayiss I has become an uncivilized world littered with ruins and the telltale signs of the cataclysmic event that led to the abandonment of the world.
Moons
Krayiss II's two satellites, Hakagram and Nakru, are in near-synchronous rotation with the planet. During Krayiss II's night cycle, the two moons provide a small amount of illumination on the planet's surface. The moons roughly measure 3,150 km in diameter, are devoid of life, and are completely exposed to vacuum. At present, there are no geological studies of the planet's surface indicating any form of mineral deposits.

Sith Empire Library-Temple
The Library-Temple
The ancient Library-Temple was home to the Sith sorcerers of old. Primarily used for studying and meditation at the height of the golden age, it has since become a run-down ruin. Located near the planet's equator, the Ancient Sith Library-temple remains entombed in the rocky surface of Krayiss II. The lone indicator of the temple's existence appears in the form of a narrow tapering monument with a pyramid-like shape at the top. Covered in Sith runes, the obelisk servers as the gateway to elevating the library-temple from the planet's surface. Once raised, the library-temple consists of angled walls, pyramidal towers, and massive wooden doors at the structure's center. The angles of the temple focus the arcane energies of the Force, a building design owed to thousands of generations of Sith that perfected the dark arts. The
massive wooden doors are carved with ancient Sith runic scripture and writings.
The interior of the library-temple holds the results of over ten thousand years of Sith experimentation by Sorcerers. Scrolls, holocrons, and legendary heirlooms litter the halls of the immaculately preserved facility. Steeped in the Dark Side of the Force, many of the items are tainted with the power of their originator's soul and possess the capability to consume the will of treasure hunters and Sith alike.
Darth Zash's Outpost
Darth Zash, a Sith witch from the Great Galactic War, who was seen as one of the greatest pursuers of arcane knowledge in her era held a small outpost on the planet. Though records of her exploits on Krayiss II are far and few in between, it stands to reason that she would have held a personal interest in the Library-Temple. Unearthed in 35 ABY by the One Sith, Darth Zash's Outpost was originally established as a hidden base in the event the Sith Lord needed to vanish from the galaxy. Protected by automated defense systems and maintained by maintenance droids, the Outpost operated independent of the galaxy for over 3600 years. During the initial discovery of Darth Zash's Outpost, the One Sith uncovered four Fury-class Imperial Interceptors before abandoning their search due to heavy casualties resulting from the Outpost's defense systems.
Spaceport
Erected in 34 ABY, the One Sith Spaceport was created to support the One Sith's expedition on Krayiss II. Designed to provide resupply and off world transport, the spaceport can support one corvette-class ship and multiple starfighters. The facility is supported by two FPC 6.7 Anti-Aircraft Batteries.
