- Planet Name: Morghulis
- Demonym: Morghuli
- Region: Unknown Regions
- System Name: Valar
- System Features: Its original system has been lost to the singularity that has spread out to pull it from place. There is no sun in the sky only a black hole with stars and light circling around it. Its moon has been shattered and is strewn across the disc that is being formed from the black hole. The black hole also gives it a hyperspace breakwater around the world... making conventional hyperspace travel difficult as there is only a narrow pathway through. Great for focusing lines of approach but also fleeing the world is much much harder.

THey established the temple seeing it as a foothold and communicated with their master. Once their work was done they sealed the temple with themselves inside.
- Force Nexus:
Intent: To set up the Dark worlds nexus
Nexus Name: Morghulis - Nexus Alignment: Dark
- Size: Planetary
- Strength: Moderate
- Accessibility: Able for anyone to feel it when they are on the planet, a mental sedation that makes it easier for darker impulses to come out and be manipulated by the firebirds witches.
- Effects: A much more subtle influence that is manipulated by the Morning star and other force users within the Firebirds. worming into the minds and making them more open to the suggestion and indoctrination of the Firebirds doctrine. They have worked to cultivate what was already there a sense of dread and mental fatigue but screaming and twisting it.
- Native Species: Extinct
- Immigrated Species: Zeltrons, Sith purebloods, Vahla, Twi'lek, Human's, Nightmare Demons , Greater Sorrows (to be subbed) and Sephi
- Population: Sparse
- Demographics: Largely female in line with the Firebirds original ideas and largely given hold to force users who are fostered and trained to become loyal servants. Balaya brought several hundred zeltrons who served her within sector five of the one sith, remnants of the one siths servants for the ember of vahl who have been protected and taken in ranging in the tens of thhousands. Twi'lek settlers, human refugees seeking escape in the areas of the galaxy untouched by the sith making the majority of the population that was on the planet. Sephi captives who were brought to the world by Krath witches and purebloods from Tantorus after the fall of the sith empire. The greater sorrows are small but sithspawn crafted on the world like stone guardians and the nightmare demons have been on the world for who knows long long. The firebirds have done purges to bring many into their mindset and reduced parts of the population.
- Primary Languages: Sith, Basic
- Culture:
- The Firebirds: An ancient Paramilitary group of women who have become Imperialistic and corrupted with the remnants of the Pius Dea's Order of the terrible glare and death witches. Casting down the former beings who lived on the world and raiding something from Rystan that they used on the world to defeat its leaders. Now ruling with an ironfist and spreading their doctrine across the world.
- The Morning Star: The supreme leader of the Firebirds and their high priestess... seductive, powerful and dedicated to the cause. She is generally seen in a grand cathedral giving a sermon to the masses of her followers.
- Gorgo: The Supereme commander of the firebird forces, a dangerous fighter and general who is brutal in her execution of her duties against the enemies of the society.
- Thulsa: Leader of the ORder of the Terrible glare and devout servant of chaos and the void... she might be among the firebirds but her goals are to see darkness return to all things and she uses her visions to attempt influences of the events.
- The Dabora: Less of a new species or single one, it is the collective name for alien species that are not of the humans on the planet. The world treats them largely as slaves if they do not meet the needs to serve within the military forces of the Firebirds.
- The Dreggs: The Remnants of the old gods, the beings who were on the world before the Firebirds came with their force powers and soldiers. The remnants themselves of the ancient beings live in tunnels and squalor as punishment and so that people can see the old gods who were defeated by the new gods.
- The Nightmare Child: Within the system and massive to see.. it sails across the night skies and answers to the command of the one in the shadows who gives monsters and weapons to the Firebirds.
- Sith Warlords: Powerful generals spread across the world who serve to train and rally the soldiers of the Firebirds or bolster their ranks with slave fodder who will become meat for the grinder of battle in the unknown regions.
- The Firebirds: An ancient Paramilitary group of women who have become Imperialistic and corrupted with the remnants of the Pius Dea's Order of the terrible glare and death witches. Casting down the former beings who lived on the world and raiding something from Rystan that they used on the world to defeat its leaders. Now ruling with an ironfist and spreading their doctrine across the world.
- Government: Military Dictatorship
- Affiliation: Firebirds
- Wealth: Medium with the export of ores mined from the planet for weapons and ships.
- Stability: High. The firebirds are cruel and with their force order thhey have strict enforcement of everything around the world.
- Freedom & Oppression: Oppressive government, the Firebirds established order and enforce it at a blades edge.
- Military: The Firebirds serve as the primary military of the planet with their agents and units patrolling and providing support. The conversion from what was standing on the world into the more brutal and sadistic society was easy enough to have happen.
- Technology: Galactic Standard
Discovered by the Firebirds and the rebuilt order of the terrible glare, the world itself is hellish. They were able to discover it with the darkside visions of Balaya, uncertain about what might come from it or what the creatures that are on the world would do. However they soon realized they were not the first real ones to discover the world... only the ones who did since the great darkness and gulag plague. The world wasn't untouched but the shroud a hyperspace anomoly that surrounds the system isolates it making the plague in other ships reach them slowly. Millions stil died and the population was devastated with it taking longer to recover as others didn't not know where they were.
Like many others it is a massive industrial world or was at one point. Foundries and forges spread across the world itself. With massive pools visible from space of fire and lava. Chunks of the crust slagged and melted down to expose parts of the core that would allow it to look like a realm of chaos. The world was discovered by the Krath after they had been scattered. Becoming something from legend for them as the remains of the cultists took to the people, allowing them to learn and be converted to following the ancient sith teachings that would be upon the world.
The Krath Death Witches took hold on the world, something of a big things as they managed to survive with the jedi avoiding the world. The scattered remains of the once powerful group that brought the galaxy to war and went against the jedi were no longer there. The Krath and the different darksiders on the world moved out gathering slaves from around the system. Bringing them in and using them in the arcane rituals to better improve upon their own methods. There the others faltered and lost their teachings the Death Witches flourished founding a new world that was deep within the Rift itself. Lost to the nebula and the bubble that allowed them to search around for themselves. Over time the energies of the darkside bled out from their rituals and attracted attention.
That attention came from the others, came from the rogue sith lord Balaya who had once been Darth Praelior an alchemist and sorceress of the sith empire and one sith. Leaving it behind to pursue her own agenda and her own purpose within the with themselves as the One Sith was crumbling under the weight of the egos others had once the Dark Lord himself was gone. The ruling council appointing themselves and doing away with the voices of the different sectors. her own servants coming with her on the ships that followed the feeling of the darkside to the world. its hellish landscape soaked in the dark corruptible nature of the force itself. She could find uses with it and with the Krath that had come to the world overtaking it as she fought and worked to subjugate their leader to serve the goals of the Firebird Society.
With the world continuing to be used and the Chiloon Rift itself being something that they would have to move from. The expansive size of the nebula, the sections of it that block out and keep others from reaching parts of it, the bubble of the lost in such an area that communications are lost and the warning beacons become distorted. There is many things that the Firebirds have to work on many more of their secret plans. The massive nature of their own shipyards that will maintain and provide at a marker up cost repairs to the stations and facilities within the Rift. Making it more independent in the galaxy while the citizen's get to maintain and continue to exist away from most major governments in the galaxy. The Rift itself, the worlds here in the system something few others can really see.
Going back into its history there was more found on the world, the ancient region suffered from the hands of another group. One who came and launched a crusade across the region and the planet. Across the world to prevent others who were non-humans the Inquisition spread to find all heretics that were against The Goddess herself and their works. The people on the world suffering after it when their ship set down on the planet itself, As they cleared the world of everything that has been seen as unclean the stranded soldiers, the stranded Order of the Terrible Glare jedi were setting themselves up to be stronger. Engaging for themselves in something better until they were visited thousands of years later by the Krath themselves. Joining together in their hatred of the jedi the two groups merged into something worse.
Finding a renewed purpose as they went forward with intents to end anything and nearly everything of the lightside. The attracted attention of the sith empire over time, with enough darksiders coming to a world or people going to it to seek the darkside and not returningit eventually garners attention. The shroud a hyperspace anomoly that prevents travel through it in all but sublight speeds acting like a breaker to keep the more curious away. Only those dedicated to learning and serving on the world or those with no where to go like the remnants of the Sisters of Seelah who found the world after the darkside calls of the others.
The histories of the world were written on its surface however with civilization building atop each other until it was a massive cityscape that slowly with a mixture of tetonic activity and the darksiders wanting to expose more of the crystals buried within the world. Led to chunks of the crust becoming holes that led down into the mantle of the planet and exposed more of it. With the shroud, getting help would take to long so they sought to stabilize it their own way.
The darkness, the gulag plague itself that had been released into the galaxy. It was dangerous and there was little protection from it. The breakwater that makes large sections around the planetary system harder to reach with hyperspace travel. It didn't save many of the population centers but it allowed them to have a little warning of the dangers and trying to prevent it. The hyperspace breakwater around the system alson making leaving the world harder for anyone that might be infected.
Once the world was recovering, they were slowly starting to redevelop parts of themselves. Becoming open to any who wanted to travel to meet them. Anyone who wanted to find something different. Morghulis started listening and whispering. Reglious talks about the force and the plague that slowly began to develop. Shadowy figures preaching the power of it and the darkside. The leadership had been attacked by the plague leaving room for others to take over. The beginnings of a new government within the shadows slowly started to develop.
With the influence of darksiders in the shadows of the world making their newer more religious zealots it was ripe and one rose to power. The left over remnants of the terrible glare, ancient darksiders who had crashed to the world when their cathedral ship got caught in the breakwater and
The firebirds were there when the Netherworld portals opened, facing off against the dangers while trying to recover who they could. Investigating the event but unsure about what it was that had been happening. They have continued to reinforce the world and use it in secret... seclussion from the galaxy and all of the more... closed minded groups. While the sith exist and darksiders could snuff the light they are at war with everyone and the world is meant to be a safe haven for the followers of the Firebirds... Not some emperor orr force in the galaxy.
