OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: Add content to the world, Hyu-Ken Carka
- Canon: N/A
- Landmark Name: Crystal Cavern
- Classification: Lightsaber Crystal Cave
- Location: Hyu-Ken Carka
- Affiliation: N/A
- Size: Small - roughly 30 squared meters
- Population: No Inhabitants
- Accessibility: It is reasonably easy to access once one knows the location. Difficulty comes in knowing the location as the entrance has become overrun with plant-life.
- Description: The cavern is a small underground region where Jedi discovered lightsaber crystals naturally occur. This was important discovery as it meant that Jedi no longer had to travel to either Dantoonine or Ilum exclusively for crystals and could train and live completely in the Wild Space/Unknown regions.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Main Crystal chamber. Contains the largest number of lightsaber crystals. Crystals available: Kathracite, Damind, Opila, Upari and Kyber. There are a reasonable number of crystals, similar number to Ilum and Dantoonine. Concentrated in the main chamber but there are a scattering of crystals in the main hallways and minor chambers.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Crystal Cavern was discovered accidentally by a Jedi Knight exploring the planet. Upon discovery of the Crystal Cavern, the Master of the Temple accepted Padawans who wished to train at Ghurkani Temple instead of at the other temples. This was a big change in the Jedi influence on the planet as a number of students who wished to later on travel in Wild Space and make great discoveries were able to train from start to finish without having to do a long journey to Ilum or Dantoonine. Sadly when the Jedi forgot the planet during the Gulag plague, retreating into the core, the cave was lost and quickly overrun by the hyperactive plant-life. Now the entrance is not very noticeable and only records of its existence lies within the temple ruins on the planet.
