Sirpar

System: Sirpar   Sector: Arkanis   Region: Outer Rim Territories   Coordinates: R-17   Description: Sirpar, a large planet with little natural resources, was an Imperial high-gravity training center and the Eklaad homeworld. It was near Tatooine. It was the primary Imperial training facility in its sector. Stories about Sirpar—usually not good ones—were known throughout the Empire, even by soldiers that were trained elsewhere. It was known for its extremely high gravity compared to that of other human-inhabited planets in the Empire, as well as a dazzlingly intense sun that was so bright that non-natives needed to wear polarized goggles in order to be able to bear it. Generations of humans living on Sirpar had become adapted to the planet, broad in size and possessed of thick layers of muscle. Many of these had become instructors to Imperial cadets. The planet was used as a training forge for cadets of the Arkanis Academy. During the three-day tour, the cadets were granted provisional ranks as they participated in live exercises commanding stormtroopers that had been rotated off active duty.   History   The Empire had built several training facilities all over the planet. There were eight basic training camps on the planet, four advanced training centers, and several special environmental training camps, including the Arctic Environments Combat Range near the planet's north pole and the Deep Ocean Operations Camp in the tropical seas. In addition there were five surplus equipment depositories of which one was the Nonessential Equipment Storage and Disposal Facility 456, an ordnance proving ground and a planetary bombardment target range.   The planet was scarcely defended, given that the only things on the surface were the primitive native Eklaad and hordes of Imperial trainees. The Empire built a starport, Jacelle on an island on the equator of the planet. Jacelle was a pleasant place, but Imperial recruits would only spend about half an hour there, before being transported off to their respective training camps. Inhabitants   The native Eklaad were a primitive and peaceful sentient species, who had been on the brink of extinction ever since the arrival of the Empire. Most of them lived as either scavengers or nomads.   Notable Locations:   Training Camp IMIIF-138   Training Camp IMIIF-138 was an Imperial training facility on Sirpar. It was commanded by Captain Strelk, and its most notorious instructor was Sergeant "Slag" Jankar. The IMIIF-138 was situated in the hot and humid jungle terrain on the equator of Sirpar, and was home to the 19016th training company, which were supported by 200 droid units, 40 of which were E2-I6 instruction models. The weather conditions were extreme changing in an instant from a boiling hot sun to pouring rain, which caused the camp to be eternally muddy.   The camp was delimited by a security fence, and contained among other things an indoctrination center, an obstacle course, an exercise area, a firing range, an infirmary, an armory, a mess hall, a machine shop, a garage, barracks and its own power plant.   The computer network of the camp was large, but out of date, and thus susceptible to slicing. Terminals were found in all administration buildings, the indoctrination center, the armory, and the power plant. While authorization was needed to access the network, slicing it was possible if one was skilled in computer programming.   Weapons Testing Area 34   Weapons Testing Area 34 was the target zone for a battery of field missile launchers on the Imperial training world of Sirpar.     Essential Equipment Storage and Repair Facility 724   The Essential Equipment Storage and Repair Facility 724 was an Imperial equipment depository on Sirpar. It was situated on a high desert plateau where it never rained. It was guarded by an eight-man squad of stormtroopers (under the leadership of Sergeant Nanda), armed Imperial Army engineers, and four Gamorrean watch-beasts.   The depository stored TIE fighters, AT-ATs, AT-STs, juggernauts, tanks, airspeeders, droids, weapons and various repair parts used in the training and outfitting of new Imperial recruits being trained on Sirpar.   Deep Ocean Operations Camp   The Deep Ocean Operations Camp was an Imperial special environmental training camp located in the tropical seas of the planet Sirpar.   Wookiepedia Link: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Sirpar/Legends   World Type: Backwater   Physical Information:
