History

For centuries Morroth has been used as both a military training facility and a prison colony for the Jusadih Defense Force. The harsh climate and strong gravity is ideal for training the hardened soldiers needed to defend this important system. The mountainous and inhospitable terrain also adds an extra layer of defense and secrecy to this planet that is already rife with mystery.

The only official compound on the planet was cleverly named “Alpha Base”. From here the military commanders and prison wardens control every action taken by the planet’s personnel and prison population. Very few civilians are present on the planet at any given time, and those that are there don’t stay around for long. The strong military dictatorship lends to a very efficient, but very unforgiving atmosphere.

It is here that House Satal Keto has found its new home, and it is here that the warriors of Satal Keto will mold the Jusadih Defense Force into an army of the Dark Side. What happens within the confines of Alpha Base are known only be a few, but the rumors are known throughout the galaxy. Only time will tell what plans are being concocted by the leaders of House Satal Keto and what horrors are waiting to be released from this planet some call Hell.

Continents

  • Annwfn- South West Continent (Forbidden Continent, only House Summit and special permissions are allowed here)
  • Cernunnos - North East Continent
  • Cerridwen- South East Continent
  • Skadi- North West Continent
  • Skatha- Center Continent (HSK Headquarters)

Isles

  • Isles of Satal - West Isles
  • Isles of Aleema - East Isles
  • Isles of Tyr - South West Isles
  • Triton Isles - North East Isles
  • Frozen Isles of Nemesis - South Isles ( Again, to be used during the Run-on competition)

Oceans

  • North Ocean- Sea of Tears
  • East Ocean- Sea of Sorrow
  • West Ocean- Sea of Calamity
  • The Frozen Ocean- Found in the south of the planet, the ocean is completely covered in ice all year around due to the planet's rotation with it's ice stretching from the coast of Cerridwen to the coast of Annwfn. More disheartening, or interesting, is the fact that scans of the ocean show not only a set of Isles, named the Frozen Isles of Nemesis, by ruins of a civilization long forgotten. Possible connection to the Frozen city has been theorized but without access to the Frozen Isles this has not been confirmed.

Moons

  • Triyal: A small barren rocky satellite with a very thin carbon dioxide based atmosphere that cannot retain heat or insulate against the solar day. The daytime highs are around 1000F and night time lows -1000F. The only time anyone can even be on the surface is during the dusk or dawn when the temperatures moderate in the range of 400F to -400F and only then in a full space suit.

Treyu: A frozen ball of ice with a solid core. The outer ice layer is 500 km thick, under it is a sea of liquid water. In this sea it is thought that some life forms exist, but as yet it has been unexplored.

Large Bases/ Fortress

  • Alpha Base - Found on Skatha (HSK Headquarters/Old System Prison) Quaestor's Base
  • Beta Base - Found on Cernunnos (2nd largest base on Morroth. Built to retain control on Cernunnos, as the only official cities are found here and therefore the largest amount of resistance has come from this area.) Aedile's Base.

Prison

  • Gryffon Prison - Found on Skatha (Named after the infamous Gryffon of the DB, he was a major player in CSK and fictionally developed a prison system for us in CSK that was impossible to break out of. Fictional, I want us to base our new prison on his design and name it after him. Prison was built to house the arrest resistance after CP conquered the system. Used as the main prison for the system)
  • Alpha Base Prison- Found on Skatha (Old system prison created before CP conquered the system, found in the basement of Alpha Base. Low-lives are now sent here, merely to be later used as target practice for our members)

Moderate Bases

  • Gamma Base - Found on Skadi (Training Complex for HSK's Obelisk) To be the official Base of the Obelisk BT when we can get one
  • Delta Base - Triton Isles (Training Complex for HSK's Sith, and only other large hanger location other than Alpha Base and Gryffon Prison) All other bases have small hangers for transport shuttles, Alpha and Delta will be the only ones to hold fighters To be the official Base of the Sith BT when we can get one
  • Epsilon Base- Found on the Cerridwen (Training Complex for HSK's Krath)To be the official Base of the Krath BT when we can get one
