Odryn An isolated planet in the Outer Rim Noonian sector , Odryn was the chief colony world of the warlike Feeorin species . Known as a world of climatic extremes , Odryn was covered in jungles and mountains , into the sides of which the Feeorin built their settlements . Although commonly believed to be the Feeorin homeworld , the Feeorin ' s original home was lost — by the time of the Mandalorian Wars , more Feeorin lived on Odryn than anywhere else in the galaxy , and developed an extremely traditionalistic and insular society . Feeorin life on Odryn was largely tribal until the legendary warrior Feln unified the warring villages under his banner , becoming the hallowed Exalted in the process . Feln later left Odryn to train with the Jedi Order , and eventually returned to his homeworld as a Jedi Master and a member of the shadowy Jedi cabal known as the Jedi Covenant . Feln ended up earning the ire of his people by volunteering Odryn ' s sacred Sanctum of the Exalted for Covenant use as a storehouse for Sith artifacts , and was eventually slaughtered by his people after he destroyed the Sanctum in an effort to ensure knowledge of the Covenant ' s work would not leave the planet . Description . Known as the homeworld of the Feeorin species , Odryn was located in the system of the same name in the Outer Rim ' s Noonian sector . Odryn had a rough terrain characterized by mountains and cliffs , into the sides of which the Feeorin natives built their villages , and was covered in jungles and forests . Largely isolated from galactic civilization , Odryn was known as a planet of climatic extremes — however , by 3963 BBY , the weather had grown especially unstable due to the presence of Sith artifacts in the hallowed Sanctum of the Exalted , which produced oddities such as summer snow , monsoons , volcanic ash , and a near - constant rain . The world ' s normal climate was actually rather temperate , with an average temperature that was generally considered uncomfortably hot by Humans but was pleasing to the Feeorin . Little else was commonly known about Odryn due to the closed nature of Feeorin society , and what few outsiders returned from a visit told of a world that was well - suited for the Feeorin but no one else . Odryn had two moons , with days that lasted 41 standard hours and years that lasted 303 local days . The planet had a standard level of gravity . History . Although commonly believed to be the original homeworld of the Feeorin species , Odryn was in fact the Feeorin ' s largest colony world , with their original home having been lost long before most histories began . Odryn was largely removed from galactic affairs until the era of the Mandalorian Wars . Much of Odryn ' s history was characterized by tribal warfare between Feeorin villages , a chapter which was brought to a close by the efforts of a single great warrior by the name of Feln . One of the most powerful Elders ever recorded in Odryn ' s history , Feln conquered and unified all neighboring villages under his rule , along the way becoming the Feeorin ' s hallowed Exalted : a title belonging to the oldest , and therefore strongest , of the Feeorin . Feln ' s prowess in battle was such that his people thought him magic , which , in a sense , he was — after he won many great victories on Odryn , a Jedi scout landed on Odryn and confirmed his Force - sensitivity . Feln soon departed Odryn to submit to Jedi training , and eventually became a Jedi Master while still maintaining the role of Exalted on his homeworld . During his time with the Jedi , Feln joined a secret Jedi organization known as the Jedi Covenant , a group of seers committed to keeping watch for the rise of the Sith . One of the Covenant ' s primary activities was gathering and containing potentially dangerous Sith artifacts , a purpose for which Feln volunteered Odryn ' s holy Sanctum of the Exalted as a storehouse . The move infuriated Feln ' s people , who saw Feln as flouting their ancient laws by opening their most sacred place — where the spirits of Feeorin dead were believed to reside — to outsiders , while it still remained closed to all Feeorin save the Exalted . The presence of one these Sith artifacts , the Helm of Dathka Graush , caused severe climatic disturbances in the area around the Sanctum . In 3963 BBY , unexpected events led the Covenant ' s enemies to Odryn , changing everything that was to come . The year prior , the Covenant ' s First WatchCircle , including Feln , massacred their students on the planet Taris after misinterpreting a vision to mean that one of them would bring about the demise of the Jedi Order . The surviving Padawan , Zayne Carrick , was publicly blamed for the murders and became one of the most wanted fugitives in the Republic , and embarked on his own campaign to expose the Covenant ' s treachery and clear his name . His quest led him to Jebble , where he encountered a Covenant agent named Celeste Morne , whom he helped seal into a life - preserving oubliette to save her from the corrupting effects of the dark artifact known as the Muur Talisman . Although ordered to kill Carrick , Morne grew to sympathize with the fugitive , and directed him to take her to Odryn and the researchers at the Sanctum of the Exalted , whom she hoped could help her from her predicament . Morne was lost when the Mandalorians bombed Jebble shortly afterward , Carrick resolved to investigate Odryn anyway . By that point , the Covenant had used Odryn as their primary site to store and test Sith artifacts for a decade , making it an extremely important resource . Traveling in the starship " Moomo Williwaw " , Carrick and several friends made the trip to Odryn to explore the Sanctum , managing to get around the one outsider quota by having Carrick and partner Marn Hierogryph hide within their luggage . The outsiders entered the Sanctum to find hundreds of Sith artifacts , which Carrick believed could be the break he needed in exposing the Covenant . After spending over a day cataloging what they found , Carrick and Hierogryph were captured trying to leave , and delivered into a vengeful Feln ' s hands . Feln wanted to eliminate Carrick right away to prevent knowledge of what was happening on Odryn from reaching the public , but his hand was stayed by the objections of his main lieutenant , Borjak , who protested that since Carrick had been inside the Sanctum , Feeorin tradition mandated that he could only be challenged to unarmed combat . Once freed , Carrick resorted to fighting dirty and running away , although Feln eventually managed to overtake him . Before he could strike the killing blow , however , Feln was informed that the " Moomo Williwaw " had been detected at the edge of the system . Fearing that Carrick ' s friends had returned to raid the Sanctum , Feln felt forced to go to the last resort : destroying the Sanctum with pre - set explosives . The ensuing explosion , bolstered by the dark power of the artifacts contained within , laid waste to much of the surrounding area , and led Feln ' s tribesmen to turn on and kill him . Borjak thus became Odryn ' s new Exalted , and led his people to rebuild away from the remnants of the Sanctum . During the Galactic War several centuries later , the Feeorin people were disturbed by troubling omens , which caused the superstitious natives a considerable amount of panic . However , an investigation by an offworld agent revealed that the disturbing signs were the result of enemy operatives attempting to influence the Feeorin , and the exposure of this information caused those plans to backfire . Some time later , a Republic corporation set up shop on Odryn to launch a trade in prefabricated goods . Odryn proved a fruitful ground , as the company was able to replicate existing tools at one - hundredth of their price , causing some artisans to go out of business . Inhabitants . Odryn was the home of the Feeorin , a warlike humanoid sentient species that had a relatively primitive , tribal society centered around the simple , wooden villages built into the sides of Odryn ' s cliffs and mountains . Feeorin society was highly traditionalistic and centered around veneration of elders — according to both Feeorin tradition and Feeorin biology , the eldest Feeorin were the strongest , and thus occupied the most important and prominent roles on Odryn . The eldest Feeorin , known as the Exalted , was seen as the leader of Feeorin society , and he alone was allowed to enter the hallowed Sanctum of the Exalted , where the spirits of dead Feeorin were believed to reside . The Feeorin society on Odryn was very closed off to outsiders , contributing to the lack of common knowledge of Odryn . Very few Feeorin were known to ever leave Odryn , and those that did typically sought contact only with other Feeorin . The Feeorin of Odryn were not totally bereft of contact without the greater galaxy , however : they occasionally imported luxury items and technology from offworld , which their security force used to carefully monitor any off - world visitors and space traffic around the planet . This security force was believed to be responsible for the disappearances of several ships and their crews who landed on Odryn . Although the planet was populated almost entirely by Feeorin , there was a very small minority of non - Feeorin that lived on Odryn . A lush world , Odryn was populated by many different kinds of fauna , most notably the Khadarok , a type of furry pack animal used as mounts by the Feeorin . Locations . By the time of the Mandalorian Wars , Odryn was still relatively uninhabited — although the planet was home to the largest number of Feeorin in the galaxy , there were no major cities on the planet and settlements were scattered few and far between . Feeorin settlements were largely primitive , ramshackle villages comprised of wooden houses built into the sides of mountains and cliffs . One of these , the home village of the legendary Feeorin warrior Feln , was built next to the grand structure called the Sanctum of the Exalted , a sprawling mountain complex that was the holiest site of the Feeorin people . The natives believed that the spirits of dead Feeorin elders continued to live on in the Sanctum , shaping Odryn ' s seasons . Only the Exalted was allowed to set foot inside the Sanctum , although Feln broke this rule when he allowed agents from the Jedi Covenant to use the structure as a storehouse for Sith artifacts . The Sanctum was destroyed during Feln ' s battle with Zayne Carrick in 3963 BBY , causing changes in Feeorin tradition and in the role of the exalted . Behind the scenes . The planet Odryn first appeared in " " , a story arc of the " " comic series , written by John Jackson Miller and released in 2008 . Although the Feeorin species was already extant in the " Star Wars " canon at the time , Odryn was the creation of Miller . In " Exalted " , Odryn was illustrated by Bong Dazo .
