Planet: Shron
Table of Contents [hide]

Shron, found in the Javin sector of the Hoth system, is an interesting planet. It does not have much history to it, aside from the occasional science team, but the wildlife is especially interesting.

The glaciers found at the polar caps have been there for such a long time that creatures and plants have developed resistance to the cold weather in such a way that they are able to survive even the coldest temperatures on these ice sheets. Several species of trees and plants have adapted in order to suck nutrients out of the ice as opposed to the soil. Other plants have roots that are strong and are able to dig through the snow and break the permafrost. This creates large forests in some areas, despite the cold temperatures. The planet does not rotate on an axial tilt, allowing the north and south poles to get sufficient sunlight all year round.

In the middle of the planet is the Machiavelli Volcanic Range. These volcanoes, named after a famous Old Republic politician, stretch across much of the planet's surface. These volcanoes are interesting on their own. They seem to extend from the north, down towards the equator where the volcanic current goes underground. These volcanoes also have their own wildlife. For example the Tokienian plant thrives off of heat, using the magma as a source of nutrients. Ironically enough, the plant is so resistant to heat that it is often used in the manufacturing of durasteel. The plant sucks the nutrients out of the magma as well as the liquefied rock, creating a tough coat of armor around it.

The grass plains are home to the Flatland Wampa, a similar species to the wampa found on Hoth, however far less dangerous. In fact this wampa, having a brown fur coat, dull claws and harmless teeth, eats plants rather than meat. This has much to do with the more hospitable climate found on Shron.
