The Great Temple of the Warriors is located in the central hub of the Sith city Phrinnchatka, on the planet of the warrior clan, K'eel Doba. It is a huge ediface, it's front portion like a stepped pyramid at least 250 feet high. At the apex, however, is a courtyard across which one moves to gain entry into the temple proper. A pair of richly carved double doors, covered in Sith runes and glyphs and decorated with semi-precious stones, leads into the Grand Foyer or Hall: a high-ceilinged room supported by myriad gigantic pillars and flying buttresses. The floor is smooth stone; there are no decorations or inscriptions here. At the back of the Hall is another set of richly carved double doors. This leads into a wide corridor sporting T-intersections that lead off to other parts of the temple, and many doors. Close to the Grand Hall is the Great Dining Hall, where the temple inhabitants come to dine. It is large, richly appointed, with a great stone fireplace commanding central stage of an entire wall to the right as you enter. Directly ahead, in the back, next to a buffet generally kept overflowing with food, is a smaller doorway. This leads to a cozy lounge, where patrons and guests go to partake of the infamous Sith brandy which is offerred here. There are many rooms and chambers within the temple. All outside ones have large open windows that go from ceiling to floor, leading out to elegantly carved stone balconies bearing stone balustrades. Most private rooms have fireplaces in them, and great canopied beds lavish with silks and satins and furs. All halls and rooms are lit by sconces or the fireplaces themselves; the Sith do not like the harsh light electricity provides, but prefer a more natural form of illumination. Deep in the bowels of the temple are the private chambers belonging to the Dark Lord of the Warriors. It is unknown what these are like, as no one has ever been invited to them... ...not even the Dark Lady. |
