Koda's World

Koda's World was the fourth planet in the Tarin system, and the only one to support life. It was covered in forests reminiscent of Kashyyyk or the Forest moon of Endor. The native sentients, the Tempestro, had once produced a great civilization, strong in the Force, though not in technology. However, their emphasis on the spiritual made them defenseless when the dust cloud from a catastrophic meteor impact lowered temperatures on their world. The Tempestro built a stone temple which they hoped would preserve the knowledge of their culture, but it was abandoned over time as they regressed to a primitive tribal society. By the Imperial era, only about one hundred thousand Tempestro were left.

The planet was named for the scout Krin Koda, who discovered the planet during the Imperial era. Sometime afterwards, the dark magician Dhar Bullwin tried to obtain the secrets of the temple, but he was defeated by a group of scouts from the New Republic.
