Shimrra's Citadel

The Citadel was the palace of Shimrra Jamaane, the Supreme Overlord of the Yuuzhan Vong, after his arrival on Coruscant, which had been renamed Yuuzhan'tar. It was based in the Sacred Precinct.

Originally a Koros-strohna, the Citadel was capable of returning to space if the need arose. It had a spire of yorik coral on the top, giving it the appearance of a mountian, and flew "up right" in space. There were separate entrances for the four ruling castes, all of which ended at the Hall of Confluence, Shimrra's public throne room, where Shimrra would hold court with the Elite.

At the top of the spire were Shimrra's private quarters and his coffer, his personal escape pod. The private throne room had a moat of black Yuuzhan Vong blood between the entrance and Shimrra's throne. In both the Hall of Confluence and the coffer, there were dovin basals that caused the gravity to increase as they approached the hau polyp throne, making those who approached the Supreme Overlord feel like they were walking uphill. Shimrra (or Onimi) was capable of manipulating the dovin basals independently of a yammosk or dhuryam. During the Liberation of Coruscant, the Citadel was breached by the Galactic Alliance troops, including YVH 1 droids, thus defiling the structure. The Citadel most likely died after the deaths of Shimrra and Onimi.
