Dxun

Geography

Dxun (pronounced /'dʌksɪn/), also known as the Demon Moon, is the largest of four moons that orbit the Inner Rim world of Onderon. Like its parent planet, it is covered almost entirely by dense jungles that are populated by many species of fierce, predatory animals. Due to its constant rains and wet climate, mechanical devices do not last long and require continuous maintenance. Moreover, the jungles are inhabited by many dangerous predators such as bomas, cannoks, drexls, maalraas, skreevs, and zakkegs, forcing the moon's inhabitants to be armed at all times. Though considered a moon of Onderon, Dxun and Onderon are almost sister planets. They are so close to one another that it is only a short shuttle ride between them, and they even share a bit of the same atmosphere. Every year, during Dxun's summer season, the atmospheres of Onderon and Dxun connect.

Natural Resources

At the end of the Beast Wars, Jedi Master Arca Jeth decided to relocate the sarcophagus of Freedon Nadd, the former Dark Lord of the Sith and king of Onderon, from Onderon to Dxun, in an attempt to prevent future Sith from drawing on its power. This tomb, along with scattered Mandalorian encampments now abandoned are the only man made structures known of on the moon.
