Metalorn/Legends

Metalorn was a harsh industrial world between Anzat and Roche, perfectly suited for manufacturing.

History
Techno Union leader Wat Tambor built a factory on Metalorn which manufactured B1 battle droids for the Techno Union's security forces, and later cortosis battle droids for the Confederacy of Independent Systems' army. Anakin Skywalker foiled the creation of the cortosis droids and captured Wat Tambor on Metalorn in 21 BBY.



Under the New Order, Metalorn was a primary industrial world of the Galactic Empire under Governor Corwyth. Human laborers wore identical uniforms and were allowed to do little other than work. No plants grew on Metalorn.

Leia Organa infiltrated the world and planted the seed of Rebellion in the heart of a young native girl named Tammi. Tammi rebelled against the oppressive Empire by planting a single flower on Metalorn.

At one point, Metalorn was a sun-beaten forest world where, in the upper atmosphere, it was almost impossible for weaker ships to land because the intense heat would melt them. In the lower surface however, there was a lush tropical forest. Presumably this tropical jungle was lost in due to the planet's resources being stripped by the Galactic Empire, making the surface a barren wasteland of rock, ash, and industrial magma pits created by underground city-factories.
