Kessan's Landing
A small--often forgotten--island on Ord Mantell, Kessan's Landing changed its name to honor its most famous resident. Felo Kessan, a Republic Army Sergeant, lost her life after single-handedly defeating over a dozen Separatist soldiers during the Battle of Antim. The Republic and Mantellian Army's victory at Antim left the Mantellian Separatist Movement no other choice but to submit to peace talks with the Galactic Republic.
While much of Ord Mantell sees Kessan's Landing as a place where people work twice as hard for half as much, the citizens of the island believe that the same bravery and perseverance shown by their famous namesake lives on in them. Despite the island's unforgiving landscape, ranchers have managed to turn small profits. Local engineers have turned unpredictable volcanic activity--widely seen as the reason outsiders avoid the island--into a self-sustaining energy method.
With the majority of frontier operations positioned in the relative safety of the larger Avilatan island, Kessan's Landing is often last-in-line when receiving military and monetary support from both the Republic and Mantellian governments. As a result, Kessan's Landing citizens have adapted to solving problems on their own, including mediating property disputes, maintaining crumbling and dangerous infrastructure, and combating the threat of organized crime.
