Dark grove

The dark grove of Naboo was a Force nexus corrupted by the dark side of the Force, that rested on the outskirts of Gungan ruins. The area seemed colder and darker than the surrounding swamp. A mutated tangler tree rested at the center of the grove, and attacked any creatures that entered its range by whipping at them with thorn-covered vines or simply by launching the thorns as a projectile.

In 32 BBY, a Dark Side Adept by the name of Savor Kibbs set up camp near the grove, and fed on its power. He used the grove to enthrall a group of Naboo and Gungan refugees to his cause, and also used the power to create a Force illusion of Darth Maul to attack members of the defunct Naboo Underground.
