Roon

Geography

Located in an impenetrable cosmic dust cloud ominously referred to a s the Cloak of the Sith, easily navigable routes to Roon have been lost. The planet is largely self-sufficient and plentiful in resources.
Surrounded by a lethal ring of asteroids and meteors, Roon is located in an Outer Rim Territories system of te same name. Other notable planets in the Roon System include the searing rock planet of Kaloo, and the barren rock world Iqoon.
Like nearby Ryloth, Roon only rotates on its axis once every orbit around the sun, rendering one side constantly bright and the other side constantly dark. Unlike Ryloth, however, the lit side of the world is not scorching, nor is the dark side frigid; this phenomenon may be due to cloud cover, or an extensive ozone layer. Whatever the reason, Roon long served as a staging point for spice smugglers coming from Ryloth.
