Tibrin: Island
This map was made specifically for The Dark Times. It was originally going to be an entirely different location ( a snowy planet) but out of nowhere I was inspired to do an island map... so here we are. I worked on it nonstop (thank you, coffee!) during a cold and rainy week and I'm proud of how it turned out.

[color=#FFBF00]Wookieepedia[/color] wrote: Tibrin (pronounced /ˈtɪbrɪn/ or /tɪˈbrɪn/) was a planet located within the Mid Rim and the homeworld of the Ishi Tib.
The planet was completely covered by small oceans, with many coral reefs and sandbars protruding to the surface. The ocean currents distributed warm water around the planet creating a temperate zone which covered the entire planet. Ishi Tib cities were built on the reefs and even built out of their material. Edible seaweed was grown and fish were bred for food in Tibrin's underwater corrals.
Because of the Ishi Tib's reliance on the planet's natural resources, environmental efforts were a primary consideration on the planet. Technology was carefully tested before it was implemented into their society. In an effort to further this environmentalism, Ishi Tib used beasts to perform many tasks on the planet that would normally be performed by machines.
The planet was ruled by the murderous dictator Suribran Tu, who sided with the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. After Count Dooku conquered the world in 22 BBY, he offered to work with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, but was instead executed by Dooku to gain the sympathy and support of the Ishi Tib—which he did.
Sora Bulq then was made temporary Confederate governor of Tibrin. Even after Tibrin joined the Confederacy, it was represented in the Galactic Senate by Gume Saam. It was the site of the Battle of Tibrin.

, this looks amazing. I am just curious, how is the island part going to play into the map? This map does look awesome. The sky looks classic for Dark Times. Nice job Era, look forward to playing this.
Love the atmosphere to it.
