- Sneer Cat: One of the main predators on the planet. Part reptile part big cat, the Sneer cat utilizes a forked tongue to sniff out its prey. It is a mostly nocturnal predator who also breathes fire. They can be found in the Canyons, Savannah, and desert dunes.
- Sand Shark: A large reptile that lives beneath the sands and travel in schools of three to five. They swim beneath the desert in search of prey. They are the main source of food for the Rock Wyrm but also are high up on the desert food chain.
- Rock Wyrm: Arguably the top predator on the planet. The Rock Wyrm is a giant creature that lies in wait for days for its prey. Typically it preys on Goi, the Daorian Sarlaac, and Sand Sharks but it will eat anything that crosses its path when its hungry.
- Drek: A large animal only found in the savannahs. An herbivore, the large beast is armor plated with gaps that expose its red flesh. A favorite of Daorians and Sneer Cats alike they are difficult to kill due to their agressive and skitish nature as well as their shell which the One Sith have found to their dismay is strong enough to to take a blow from a lightsaber. However, because they are slow creatures it is a relatiely simple task for the experienced hunter or fighter to get the blade in between the gaps in its armor.

- Lahima: Once an ancient city, Lahima became the largest Oasis Settlement on the planet of Daoria. When the One Sith took over the planet however they added to it their dark architecture, constructing a large structure over the massive lake that the settlement was built around, effectively making it an indoor lake. It is believed that the structure, which doubles as a Sith Temple, was made to control the distribution of water to the settlement.
- The Dunes: A massive expanse of sand that covers about 87% of the planet. The minerals that make up the sand throw off most modern sensors and during Sand Hurricanes, which can have winds 252 km/h, have been known to completely shut off electronics, dumping One Sith fighters and even starships out of the sky.
- Horizon: A place within the Dunes where the Daorians saw their first and only victory in their rebellion against the One Sith. The Daorians led the One Sith into a class 5 Sand Hurricane where with their advanced knowledge of how to navigate within one were able to defeat several hundred One Sith troopers and their Sith Lord's flagship. A Star Destroyer-class size ship is buried alongside the brave Daorians and evil Sith that were caught in the storm.
Culture: Daoria is a planet of hardy people and dangerous animals. The Daorians are a primitive migratory people who now live under the rule of the Sith. Prior to the subjugation by the Sith however, the Daorians lived a fairly simple life of moving between the Oasis settlements and Lahima, the only major trade hub on the entire planet. Daorians lived in medium to large tribes that were lead by one chief and one Shaman. The Shaman was the spiritual and diplomatic leader of individual tribes with the Chief being the figurehead and military leader of the tribe. Together they lead the nomadic tribes around the planet avoiding the Sand Hurricanes, which can cause massive devastation even far into the Savanas as well as massive power and communication outages. Inter-tribe relations are relatively simple. More often than not they are completely cooperative with one another and help survive the harsh landscape. However, because of how spread out they are, once the Sith invaded and took over Lahima and the Oasis settlements and began throwing up bases and prisons the wandering Daorians still lived relatively quiet lives. However because the Oasis settlements have been taken over by the Sith in the Dunes there has been a scarcity of food and water for the nomadic tribes. Because of this no one tribe has openly joined the Sith.
The rogue One Sith by comparison have also had a tough time on the planet. Keeping order and a firm grip on nomadic peoples is difficult on its own. However with the addition of the Sand Hurricanes that boast winds strong enough to knock starships out of the sky their technology is all that keeps them from falling apart on the planet. Luckily the One Sith prefer the quiet of space and most live on the orbiting shipyards or the few small space stations that also orbit the planet.
The Daorians unlucky enough to live in Lahima or the Oasis settlements have been enslaved by the Sith, forced to operate the makeshift starport and factories.
Technology:
- One Sith: Advanced Technology
- Daorians: Pre-Space Hyperspace Travel - Despite having access to ancient spacefairing technology, advances in hyperspace, energy, and military technology have been halted by the presence of the One Sith.
The nomadic tribes worked to survive in the harsh desert heat and over time created a culture around moving from place to place, following ahead or behind the massively dangerous Sand Hurricanes that began plaguing the planet after the forgotten war.
For centuries things were peaceful on the planet. Once the Sith came however things changed. The Oasis settlements were converted into massive factory towns and Lahima, the largest Oasis settlement became a home base for the Sith invaders. Daorians were either enslaved or in the case of the migratory tribes, were killed on sight. This led to a series of uprisings. All of them were unsuccessful and thus distrust between the One Sith and the Daorians grew. Now the Daorians suffer from a lack of food and water as the One Sith control almost all the Oases.
