Spice Mines of Kessel

The Spice Mines of Kessel were used by both the Galactic Republic and Galactic Empire as a prison a slave camp. The work in the mines was extremely difficult due to the cramped, humid conditions. The mines were used by the Empire to enslave any sentients who did not agree with or follow their beliefs and terms of work were used as threats to silence those who spoke out against the Empire. Energy Spiders also populated the mines, creatures that produce the valuable substance glitterstim when they spun webs, would terrorise the workers as they randomly attacked any sentients in their path. The criminal organisation, Dead Hand, became overseers of the mines after aiding the Empire with many different plots, including such plots as enslaving innocent sentients, some of which may have been sentenced to work in the mines to harvest the valuable spice. Anaxsi crimelord Tyber Zann also served in the spice mines having been sentenced for "crimes against the Empire" after a partnership with Jabba Desilijic Tiure fell apart.
