Acrolis

Acrolis was a planet located in the Chommell sector near the Outer Rim territories, mostly known as the homeworld of Drewika Ziratae. It played a major role in the years prior to the fall of the Old Republic and into the rise of the Galactic Empire. It was known for its similarity artistically to its neighbor Naboo, but it possessed a military bent brought about by the Mandalorians who had colonized the planet. Populated by both the jet-blacked skinned, red-eyed Acroyali and the descendants of the Mandalorians, the planet is proud of its history while shunning those cultures which would pollute its reputation.

Colonization
Around 30000 BBY, a small group of Taungs from Coruscant became separated from the main convoy on the way to the planet Mandalore. The party's leader, a warlord named Teloris Ziratae, eventually landed his party on a small planet in the Mid Rim. Populated by war-loving natives called Acroyali, or "rock people" in their native language "Lanacro," the planet was perfect for colonization, made up mainly of heavily forested, mountainous islands, rich in natural resources. At first, the natices were wary of the "men from the heavens," but when Teloris offered to teach them his "god-like" ways, the people fell to worshiping the Taungs. Teloris was eventually deified by the Acroyali after his death, for being the one who laid the groundwork for a powerful civilization.
