Giant Fungi Forest

The Giant Fungi Forest, also known as the Great Fungi Forest, was a titanic patch of huge, trumpet-shaped fungi located on the planet Little Kessel. They were large and strong enough for the world's inhabitants to build homes and offices inside of them. Several of the large mushrooms were even used as landing pads. Professor Renn Volz did his most advanced research in a laboratory hidden in the stipe of one of the forest's gigantic fungus.

In the year 0 ABY, Captain Bzorn of the Imperial Navy, under personnel orders by Darth Vader to located and punish planets sympathetic to the Alliance to Restore the Republic, commandeered Volz's Ionic Ring Ship. When Little Kessel's government refused to surreneder its Rebels, Bzorn attacked the Giant Fungi Forest using earthquakes, which the world had not experienced for eons.
