History of TMB (I)

The settlement of Twin Mountain Base is preceded by a first attempt on the planet Tatooine. There, Tarn Pagott and Jed Hull first attempted to create a settlement in the vicinity of Bestine in 2004. While the settlement showed early promises and the area was mostly cleared of dangerous game and outlaws, it eventually was abandoned as a mining corp. moved into the area and laid endless rows of machinery nearby. The handful or so buildings of this original settlement were levelled. Despite the sour experiment, the resolve remained.

By the time a new settlement was envisioned, Jed Hull and Tarn Pagott had been joined by a third comrade, Rettep Sunrunner. It is he who extensively scouted Lok and selected the possible areas in which a settlement could be built, though the final location, on a plateau, was chosen by the three together. At the time of the foundation, the area was home to several wild beasts lairs. Although perleks represented a passing menace, kimogilas could be found in the vicinity as well as Canyon Corsairs and Gurks. This time, the foundation of the settlement was unobstructed and soon, planetary authorities were notified of its creation in December 2004. The settlement rapidly reached over a hundred inhabitants and housed essential facilities such as a shuttleport or a cloning center.
