The Orian System possesses a number of moons, of varying significance.

Mukuru

Geology

Mukuru

Orbitting the planet of Nuvenpa as its sole moon, this unstable blazing hell is seldom visited. Temperatures soar high, and tidal force generated quakes rock the searing ground. Boiling lava covers the whole 5,900 kilometer diameter of the moon. Mukuru experiences a lunar year of 280 standard days.

Inos 42

History

Also known as the "Necropolis", this moon which orbits Inos, once served as a burial ground for Sith Lord Urias Orian's followers. It has remained largely unexplored until early 30 ABY. A team of crack operatives was soon dispatched to find horrible things.

Geology

Old Sith Tombs on Inos 42

The underground necropolis known as the Tombs of Urias Orian is a moderate Dark Side site that exists on this cold rocky moon. Given the size of Inos, this moon is nearly as large as some smaller terrestrial planets and retains its own atmosphere. It is warmer than would be expected for a moon so far out in the Inos planet system. Inos orbits in an almost lock-step to Orian Minor and may have been the victim of Sith stellar-body manipulation by Urias Orian. The combined tidal stresses and other stellar and planetary effects add considerable thermal energy and significantly affect the moon's environment. As well, the abundant radionuclides in the Orian system combine to produce an inhospitable planet-sized moon. Inos moon 42 is largely shielded from the worst of Inos as the gas-giant electromagnetic effects are offset by the planetoid's energetic ionic and magnetic field.

Planetary Data

With a 25 standard hour day, and 400 stadard day year, Inos 42's diameter measures at 12,964 kilometers. A ball of frozen rock and ice wasteland, it nonetheless has a breathable atmosphere. Formerly inhabited by the Sith, this moon notably now holds Undead abominations, monstrocities and oddly enough, wampas. No bases of operation are currently used by Clan Naga Sadow here.
