A frigid planet, Krownest was located in the Mandalore sector of the galaxy’s Outer Rim Territories. Krownest was a terrestrial world blanketed in ice and snow, possessing a cold climate and an atmosphere breathable to humans. The planet’s terrain was largely comprised of mountainous regions dotted with forests of tall evergreen trees.

A Mandalorian world, Krownest was the ancestral home of Clan Wren, a legendary family of Mandalorian warriors, who constructed a fortified stronghold on Krownest along the banks of a frozen lake. The Wrens’ complex, built from steel and glass, blended elegantly into the snowy landscape of Krownest. At least one member of Clan Wren monitored traffic around Krownest, and vessels entering the planet’s airspace would be met either by a cadre of the clan’s jetpack-equipped soldiers or a squadron of Fang starfighters.
