Yavinridge is a city of temples that was ordered built by Bentre Stahoes in 38 ABY. The designation of the Yavinridge Temple is given to the largest of these structures, which serves as a central point in the city. The buildings of this city, meant to house the Massassi population of Sepros, were styled after the temples of old Sith. Specifically and particularly the Massassi temple known as the Great Temple on Yavin IV. The name was derived by an off-hand comment by the Consul that the jungles of the city would be slightly akin to if one were "looking off a ridge over Yavin [IV] itself." This comment was an exaggeration, but the name stuck from a lack of anything particularly more suitable. The legends concerning Naga Sadow's supposed involvement with the planet helped to inspire the decision to build what appears almost as an interweaving web of buildings on the surface of Sepros.
The structures that dot this city vary in size from from the size of the Temple of Darkness to as small as that of a sizable cantina.
The building of the city also saw a renewed interest in bringing new species to the Orian system. The return of the Massassi is particularly of interest in this project. These ancient, Sith people stand as both a reminder and a well-compensated worker caste within Orianite society. Other species, such as the Wookies were also invited to live in the city, but these people were instead content to live in smaller communities nestled across the surface of Sepros.
Very little sets this small 'city' apart from more than a glorified base, with many amenities having been spared in the interest of keeping overall costs down.
