Edit this nav

Akin to a modern day Tortuga, Shadow's Edge is known as a location for black market goods, piracy, and deals that never see the light of day. While officially the colony was formed from exploration and resources gathered from the nearby Shadows, few pure hearted individuals arrive in Shadow's Edge, and fewer leave. The planet itself is a garden planet, one that would rival Risa were other hands in control, and is also known for the large and vicious carnivores that roam its jungles.

One such carnivore is the Draaf, a furred creature with six eyes, rows of razer-sharp teeth, six-inch claws.

Known settlements

• Edria City
  • The largest city on Shadow's Edge that also serves as its capital. The governor's residence is located here, and the city has an air of grandeur to it, unlike the rest of the planet that still feels mostly untamed. Edria's skyline features grand spires and towering skyscrapers set against a gorgeous tropical sky. There are bustling transporter hubs, beautiful public parks, and incredible displays of sculpture and other art.
• Cakapunnual
  • A brand new, tiny research settlement far away from the main population of the planet, surrounded by dense jungle, not to mention precariously placed by a cliff edge.
• Drosera
  • Home to a group of salvagers who make their living by recovering scrap - and anything else they can salvage - from the Shadows. Unofficially, the place is a safe harbor for a gang of pirates calling themselves the Shadow's Teeth.
