Planet Name: D'harkoshia
Planet Type: Varied Terrain
Habitable: Yes
System: Outer Rim
Terrain Overview: Dharkoshia's terrain varies greatly from grand oceans to magestic mountains to the dark forests and dank underground caves. The oceans cover over a fifth of the planets surface. A large continent spans the globe, though often splits off into different branches and peninsulas of varying sizes. A large forest covers most of the eastern part of the continent while a grand mountain range covers the west. Plains, grasslands, and deserts are abundant in between. The northernmost part of the planet is a large icy mountainrange.
Notable Geographic Features
The Dark Forest: A large forest that spans most of the eastern portion of the continent, the trees are so thick that in most places they obscure all forms of light. The canopy ranges from small ten foot trees all the way to some over a hundred yards tall.
The D'harkoshian Ore Mine: The largest mine on the entire planet. It's near the western mountains, but centered around the plains. Within is the D'harkoshian ore, a mineral found planetwide. This is the largest and most well known of the mines. D'harkoshian ore forms a rare metal that is strong, light, and able to resist lightsaber blasts. However, it becomes very brittle in extreme colds, rendering it useless for spacetravel. Still, many use it in droid parts, weapons, even armor.
Baluran Sea: The name for the large ocean. It spans most of the globe, though is sparce in some locations, and abundant in others. Beneath it's waters grand cities can be found built both on the sea floor and in underwater caves. At least a third of these have oxygen, being built outside the water within caves.
Beoran Mountains: The vast mountain rage that spans the western end of the continent. Many deposits of D'harkoshian ore can be found here, but none in as large of concentrations of as the mine on the plains.
Azorian Mountains: Another large mountain range that spans the arctic pole. While some deposits of the planets ore can be found, they are usually only in the deepest of caves.
Capital City: Ameria
What started originally as an Arkanian colony has turned into a bustling city of industry, one of the only technological cities on the planet. Not far from the Ore Mine, many factories are within and just outside of it, making everything from droids, to weapons, to armor.
Major cities:
No'sharu: The grand city within the Dark Forest, it's built both among the trees and upon the ground.
Anumar: A large subterranean city built underneath the Beoran mountains, it spans at least half of their range. Very few that enter the tunnels besides those who inhabit it make it back out.
