  • Major Locations:
    • Aurelian: The only true city on the planet, it is a budding hub of supremely elegant architecture and sophistication inside an intricate habitation dome. Many martial academies, forge centers, a giant shipyard and docking yards, and the fortress of House Mereel itself. Also home to the Jasterian Library, the Rekali Forum, and Larraq Shipyards.

    • Jasterian Library: Possibly the largest repository of Mandalorian lore and myth in the known Galaxy. It was founded after the Sith Empire 'cleansing' of Mandalore and subsequent atrocities, as a bastion for the remaining lore of a largely oral-tradition culture to codify and set down their story. This was done in part as a self-penance by Ijaat for the destruction he caused to Mandalore, and there is no shortage of ancient knowledge and artifacts dating back to the time of Jaster himself or even earlier, some relics rumored to be Taung in origin.

    • Rekali Forum: An oasis withinn an oasis, the hab-dome over Aurelian contains the Rekali Forum, a home away from home from Clan Rekali, a close ally of House Mereel and religious and Force adepts of a blend of Dathomirian and Mandalorian traditions. The buildings are based on ancient ruins that are unknown in origin, and despite their physical appearance, are quite comfortable and sturdy. Much goes on here that would mystify the lay person.

    • Larraq Shipyards: Nestled in the heart of Aurelian, this shipyard is named for the famed Slayer of Dromund Kass, and is a shipyard that will likely rival any other in the Galaxy in the coming decades, being filled with the brightest civilian and Mandalorian minds alike. Thought mostly starships, there are some centers of production for tanks, speeders and bikes as well, making this a bustling industry center, carefully bubbled and vented to keep the air of the Aurelian capitol healthy.

  • Force Nexus (Optional): N/A
POPULATION
  • Native Species: N/A
  • Immigrated Species: Human, Rodian, Devaronian, Sullustan, Ithorian
  • Population: Moderate
  • Demographics: 67% Human, 33% Non-Human
  • Primary Languages: Mando'a, Basic, House Cant (hand sign language of House Mereel)
  • Culture: High Mandalorian. Very much the epitome of True Mandalorian ideals and values planet-wide, with a focus on learning and crafting, and the training of super commandos. Much of life is centered around industry or learning, being nearly split down the middle between craftspeople and learned scholars or the like, with equally about two-thirds of each being Mandalorian warriors, with hundreds of Ori'ramikad and a famed training center for them. They are often polite but standoffish to strangers, and daily life centers around training in craft or war or time spent in study. They prize Imperialistic statuary and art, with no firm established official religion. Sports are often gladitorial in nature, to first blood excepting in criminal trials by combat.

GOVERNMENT & ECONOMY
  • Government: Protectorate - Mandalorian Enclave
  • Affiliation: Mandalorians (The Enclave)
  • Wealth: High- center of beskar crafting in the most skillfull and prized of hands to that craft, the wealth centers around such industry and is well kept.
  • Stability: High - Who invades a planet of super commandos and mandalorians?
  • Freedom & Oppression: Free with the Canons of Honor and Six Tenets, Supercommando Codex and the like forming the backbone for Mando'ade occupants, slightly oppressive to Aureteii with them being relegated to certain districts, expected to have a guide in others, etc...
MILITARY & TECHNOLOGY
  • Military: A world with countless military installions. It's defenses come in the shape of regular patrols of starfighters furnished from The Enclave to a rare orbital defense platforms and interdictors at key points to help prevent any surprise assaults by enemy fleets, and most groundward habitations have strong AA battlements and shields powered by subterranean generators to protect the hab-domes.

  • Technology: Advanced well beyond Galactic Standard for even everyday.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION:
Gardius was an abandoned husk of a rock with House Mereel fled the senseless hunters of Clan Mereel with it's member clans to find a home away from the ruins of their fortress on Concord Dawn. In the depths of Wild Space they found a system rich in irons, durasteel and other minerals and alloys, not to mention healthy deposits of beskar. Settling, the first structures were giant forge-factories as pictured below:

From there, great centers of learning and training were formed in the 'forests' of "blue obsidian" which features tree-like natural growths of Kyber crystal, and volcanos contained a magma like form of the kyber crystal and natural silicates, making the magma by-product most excellent for alloying with other minerals and in Force based weaponry. The air there is less toxic, as if the 'trees' filter it, and peace seems to fill the air. Particularly Force Orders have taken a liking to these forests, while martial orders of the Mando'ade prefer various mountains and lava plains less remote and more challenging in daily nature.

Alright Ijaat Mereel Ijaat Mereel , first of all, I really like the concept of this planet! Definitely a cool aesthetic. There's a few things that will need fixing, however.

First of all, image credits should be placed within the 'image credit' section of the sub. You can keep the links under the pictures if you wish, but they do need to be added to that section.

There are also several things that are gonna need links. The canon species mentioned, beskar, Canons of Honor, Supercommando Codex, Concord Dawn, and Wild Space need links. The Six Tenets needs a link as well (a link to the Resol'nare will work for this). Also, I'll need a link for the obsidian crystals. Even though the blue version of these crystals is new, a link to the canon obsidian crystals will give people more of a reference point.

Another issue is, under the 'Location' section, it looks like you have a spoiler tag coding issue. That will have to get fixed so that the Imports, Exports, and Unexploited Resources are outside of the spoiler.

Beyond these technical issues, there are aspects of this planet that would better serve the RP community if they were fleshed out more. For example, what is included in "countless defenses"? When was the Jasterian Library founded? Has anything happened on the planet before House Mereel settled there? Fleshing some of this out will help create greater RP potential for those wanting to write stories set on the planet. The major locations could also be fleshed out more in this regard. Overall, adding those extra details will really make this already interesting planet a place for greater RP opportunities.

Once you have made the changes listed above, let me know and we can move this to pending.

Almost there :) Just a couple of things left.

The canon species mentioned (Devaronian, Rodian, Sullistan, Dathomiri, Taung) still need links. Also, it looks like the spoiler tag issue is still present under "Location".

  • Location:
    yHbOzm7.png
    [/spoiler
    [*]Major Imports: Foodstuffs, Textile,
    [*]Major Exports: Beskar Ore, Technoloy, Warfare Resources
    [*]Unexploited Resources: Blue Lava Flow & Resultant 'Blue Obsidian' kyber crystals

Looks like it is just a minor coding issue. It has to be fixed so that the Imports, Exports, and Unexploited resources are outside of the spoiler, as the codex rules state:
  • Spoilers and Tabs are not permitted in submissions, however, images can be placed in Spoilers. This is the only exception. Text should not be hidden.
Once these things are taken care of I can move this to pending.
