Boomshakalaka, sometimes called “The Boom,” is a nightclub and bar found in the heart of the in-revival Seng Karash Leisure District. A favorite watering hole for members of Clan Naga Sadow, it is occasionally shut off to the public for private, Sadowan “Knighting” parties. The club is the first in a series of newly built entertainment venues in the District.
Description
The Boom has been described as “the dirty lovechild of a techno-rave and a battle royale, hopped up on Spice and finished with a twist.” A top-class venue, high-shine durasteel panels line the walls, illuminated with a variety of blue, violet and green laser light effects. A series of guest DJs spin sets every other solar rotation, and the rest of the time the Galactic Top 40,000 are pumped through the bar’s substantial sound system.
A fully stocked bar with various spirits collected from star systems near and far are available for any number of popular drink mixtures. Rare ales from the Deep Core and moonshine from the Outer Regions are available on special request.
A large dance floor is set off of the bar area, always occupied by a motley collection of overly wealthy and fashionable locals, battle-hardened Sadowans and “hired entertainment.” Spontaneous dance-offs are known to occur, and occasionally end in lightsaber duels.
VIP seating is found in in the back corners of the main room, blocked off by velvet ropes and guarded by masked, lightsaber-wielding mercenary (i.e., expendable) bouncers.
Gambling
Though the venue is newly built, signs are posted at the entrance advertising an annual Pazaak tournament with a “wealth of riches” promised for the winner. An installation of six top-of-the-line Pazaak tables can be found in a gambling room set off from the main room.
Ownership
With the destruction of a huge portion of the Leisure District in 21 ABY by an explosive blast set off by Malisane Sadow in Dystopia, the population of Seng Karash was left with little opportunity for entertainment outside of small gatherings in personal dwellings. Observing the unrest of the population after so many years without an outlet for leisurely activities, Aul Celsus proposed the rebuilding of the Leisure District in early 34 ABY, beginning with the construction of Boomshakalaka. Though Aul proposed its construction, the management of the club is overseen by the summit of Shar Dakhan as a whole.
Signature Drinks
Winter On Gold Beach
- The base of this drink is two parts and will take up about half of the capacity, lemonade and black iced tea. Ideally, using fresh brewed tea with Chandrillan black tea leaves works, and the lemons from Corellia’s equator are great for the lemon juice for the lemonade. Alternatively, anything originating from Ithorians will work, but for large serving numbers, premade can be accepted. The goal is to create a taste that is not overly bitter, since this is a drink to be enjoyed, not to see how much sour someone’s head can take before it implodes.
- One part vodka, either Corellian or Kuati labels. DO NOT use Naboo or Twi’lek labels, as the former is an example of how the Naboo cannot make booze, and Twi’leki vodka tastes like it’s going bad, even when it’s fresh.
- One part rum, and the further from the Core it comes, the better. Coruscanti rum is an absolute no, as the pretentiousness of the makers can ruin the drinker’s buzz. If you know any Outer Rim pirates, their rum will work perfectly.
- One part gin, and these can be either Corellian, Rodian or Coruscanti. Ideally, Rodian, as it has a good kick without tasting like reactor coolant. Mandalorian gin should be avoided, as Mandalorians have a habit of ruining everything, including alcoholic beverages.
- Mix with ice in a blending unit set to its highest setting. If it sounds like a TIE Fighter being mauled by a rancor, then it’s the right setting. The ice should not be chunky, because this is not hot shotting a freighter through an asteroid belt, it’s enjoying a good drink.
- "This is not a one and done shooter, it is a larger sized drink. To make this, you will need at least a pint-sized glass or larger. This is intended to make the trip to getting hammered an enjoyable one, since the creator originates from Corellia, where the people have a higher tolerance for alcohol and it shouldn’t require drinking fuel slugs or reactor coolant to get drunk. One more note: No, Gold Beach is nice year round, I just gave it this name because I’m from there and it’s a frozen drink. So stop asking me if it snows, and then go shove your face in a book on basic climate studies for asking such a dumb question."

Tatooinian Sand Blaster
- First, you must sprinkle pure sand from the Dune Sea in the glass, this gives it it's texture. It's not a true Sand Blaster if you don't get sand in your teeth.
- Next, you must add half of one bottle of aged Jawa Juice that has been left to "ferment" in the sun for at LEAST three weeks. This gives the drink it's homegrown experience.
- After that, drop in the pedal of a molo shrub for that extra hint of desert flavor.
- Next, empty the entire picture into the inflated bladder of a Krayt dragon and shake it vigorously for several seconds. This gives the concoction a unique taste.
- Drop in a lit match. This is to give it that burnt after taste that sticks with you for days.
- "The Tatooine Sand Blaster must be swallowed all in one, continuous gulp, without much thought as to it's contents. If done correctly, you will wake up the next day with a severe hangover, your valuables stolen, and produce more excrement than a bantha for a week. You will be miserable, but at least you won't remember losing the feud."

- Using a spoon carved from the tooth of a Krayt Dragon, add 5 spoonfulls of blue milk in memory of Luke's forgotten power converters in Mos Eisley
