The lylek was easily the most dangerous predator native to Ryloth, with their hard shelled insectoid bodies and sharp limbs and extremely strong tentacles. Ryloth had several native non-sentient species, most of which were fierce and predatory for survival on a planet with such a harsh environment.
Kala'uun was a permanent city located within the Lonely Five mountain range, boasting a large underground spaceport. Visitors were allowed to rearrange the stones to their liking, but were encouraged to seek meaning in the natural configurations. Over the years the gardens became filled with rare and dazzling stones. The Floating Rock Gardens of Ryloth were a natural wonder and tourist attraction, well known throughout the Outer Rim, where strong winds blew among the tunnels, causing rocks to float gently through the air. Along this narrow strip were the series of caverns where some of the Twi'leks decided to build their underground cities, blockaded with thick blast doors and portcullises to keep out the vicious monsters that prowled the Bright Lands, especially lyleks. The more extreme heat storms sometimes moved across the terminator and reached miles underground, making caves near the surface temporarily uninhabitable, before eventually dying out on the night side.Īlong the terminator lay a thin habitable border, a twilight realm between the two extremes. īecause of its unusual day-night rotation period, atmospheric conditions on Ryloth's surface were characterized by turbulent seasons and extremely high winds (reaching 500 kilometers per hour) scouring the surface and sculpting the landscape and unpredictable bursts of heat called heat storms, which could reach 300 degrees Celsius. It was a planet of extremes: dry, rocky landscapes of deserts, mountain ranges with mist-covered peaks, shadowy valleys, alternated with snowy wastes, joined by lush temperate bands which concentrated much of its population. It had little or no surface water except for patches of water ice on the night side. The planet was orbited by five moons, which had subtle tidal effects on the planet's liquid core and underground springs. Ryloth, the second planet in the Ryloth system, possessed a thin, but breathable atmosphere. The night side of Ryloth was punctuated by diverse, luminescent forests of crystalline flora
