Knores

Knores was a Mid Rim world located in the Senex sector that was famous for its red seas. The world also featured a deep equatorial trench, appealing cities, and violent weather. By 3637 BBY, the seismologist Fez Burba hypothesized that a civilization once existing on Knores had been rendered extinct due to shifts in Knores' crust. Millennia later, the world was ruled by the aristocratic House Viholn.
