SETTING INFORMATION
POINTS OF INTEREST
Central Living Chamber
The central chamber serves as the heart of Obsidian Hollow. High stone ceilings and natural rock formations frame a spacious living area where Seren studies ancient artifacts, meditates, or plans her journeys beyond Malachor.
The combination of natural cavern walls and simple furnishings strikes a balance between comfort and the cave's raw environment.
Kitchen Alcove
Carved into the rock wall, the kitchen alcove functions as both a food preparation area and a dining space. Built-in seating curves along the stone walls around a circular table where Seren can prepare simple meals or review holocrons and datapads.
Sleeping Chamber
Located deeper within the cave system, the sleeping chamber offers warmth and protection from the harsher sections of the cavern network. The surrounding stone provides natural insulation, creating a quiet and sheltered place to rest.
Furnishings remain simple but comfortable, allowing Seren to recover after long periods of meditation or training.
Quiet Sitting Room
A smaller side chamber has been converted into a quiet sitting room used primarily for reflection and meditation. The contrast between the smooth, carved surfaces and the raw cave walls creates a calm, contemplative atmosphere.
Volcanic Hot Spring
Deep within the cave system lies a geothermal spring fed by Malachor's volatile volcanic activity. Warm mineral waters gather in a natural basin surrounded by stone.
Steam rises through the chamber as lantern light reflects off the water's surface, creating one of the few tranquil spaces within the hostile world of Malachor.
Seren occasionally retreats here after training or meditation, allowing the warmth of the spring to restore both body and mind.
SECURITY
Security Rating: Medium
The Obsidian Hollow relies primarily on secrecy and natural defenses.
Security elements include:
• Hidden cave entrance concealed within a volcanic ravine
• Difficult terrain surrounding the approach
• Narrow tunnels and confusing cave pathways
• Limited lighting within deeper tunnels
• Seren's Force awareness providing early warning of intruders
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The cavern that became Obsidian Hollow formed naturally during the catastrophic geological upheavals that scarred Malachor following ancient Sith conflicts.
For centuries, the caves remained untouched and largely forgotten beneath the planet's ruined surface.
Seren Gwyn discovered the cavern while exploring the deeper cave networks beneath Malachor. Drawn by the subtle presence of the dark side within the surrounding stone, she chose the cavern as a place of solitude and meditation.
Over time, Seren gradually adapted the cave into a livable sanctuary. Dangerous passages were cleared, chambers were organized, and simple furnishings were added to make the cavern functional while preserving its natural structure.
Today, Obsidian Hollow stands as Seren's hidden refuge — a place where she can study the Force, meditate in isolation, and remain unseen by the wider galaxy.
- Intent: To create a hidden sanctuary and residence for Seren Gwyn on Malachor that can serve as a location for personal story development, meditation, Sith training, and roleplay threads.

SETTING INFORMATION
- Structure Name: Obsidian Hollow
- Classification: Sith Sanctuary / Cave Residence
- Location: Malachor
- Affiliation: Seren Gwyn
- Accessibility:
The entrance to Obsidian Hollow lies hidden within a collapsed volcanic ravine deep within Malachor's fractured terrain. Jagged rock formations, unstable ground, and labyrinthine cave tunnels make navigation difficult for outsiders.
The cave system is largely unknown to travelers and explorers. Only those with knowledge of the tunnels or guidance through the Force are likely to locate the sanctuary. - Description:
Obsidian Hollow is a natural volcanic cavern carved into the ancient stone beneath the surface of Malachor. Over time, Seren Gwyn transformed the cavern into a livable sanctuary while preserving much of its natural structure.
The cave retains its rugged beauty, with jagged stone arches, mineral veins, and rough basalt walls, illuminated by warm light. Despite its harsh geological origins, the cavern now serves as both refuge and home.
The sanctuary provides shelter from Malachor's dangerous environment while allowing Seren to remain immersed in the dark side energy that permeates the planet.
