So Eternal Order guild leadership was impressed with my flair for decorating strongholds, so they tasked me with decorating our secondary strongholds. First up is Dromund Kaas. I’ve done a lot of pretty Jedi / Republic themed strongholds, so this is my first proper effort at a Sith themed Dromund Kaas.
I’m not going to show every room but I’ll be featuring my favourite rooms.
Starting downstairs with the entrance, as always first impressions are everything so I set it up like a nice Sith themed reception/lobby. Complete with a vendor receptionist, Dark Honour Guards, fountains, plants, a place to sit down while you wait to be seen, and all the utilities you could possibly need, minus appearance mod (which is in the not-featured bedroom).
The next room to feature is the library. Again keeping with the very red-lit Sith theme, this room has sound effects as you walk in, you can hear the holocrons, every library is interactable, benefit of guild stronghold duplicates. This is the fourth in a long line of patented Hayley Dorne decorated libraries, previous enteries can be found on my profile. Like with every library I do, I try to make it look seemless between the library and the statue that bookends it. The two centre libraries are doubled up to make it look thicker.
Next is the hallway, nice and neat. I merged Statues of the Throned Sith with Zakuul Water Sculptures.
The next major feature is the Dark Council Chamber. Building on my previous utilisations of the Stone Walls deco, I started with a similar layout to my Coruscant appartment build, only neater. I took more care with this one getting the walls exactly where I want them. From there I went a bit nuts and made a whole council chamber. I used the Sith walls to divide the entrance to the room from the rest of the chamber, to give it the vibe of, ‘okay, wait here before you can see the council’. An added layer of security to the lobby.
Next we go upstairs to the main room featuring in the thumbnail, which I’ve turned into a conference room. This is where a Dark Council member will have meetings with Sith Intelligence, military officials and ambassadors. Also complete with utilities and a central statue of Darth Marr. I also worked on the exact placement of the walls, which again are very similar to my Coruscant build, only neater. I don’t often use the Aisle Runner rugs, because they’re often too long and clip with doors, walls and other rooms. Here though they were perfect, lined up two back to back to give a carpeted feel and a smaller Imperial dignatary as a path to the next hall. This is my favourite room of the stronghold.
Finally I’ll be featuring the terrace. I know it doesn’t seem very Sithy to have nice vegetation everywhere but I can’t help myself. Street lamps for visibility arranged plants and a Makeb Gazebo, which I wish I owned to use in my own strongholds. Please Bioware, please, I beg you, make the Makeb Gazebo available again.
Not featured: Cantina, Stairs, Upstairs Hallway, Bedroom, Firing Range / Mandalorian Room, Staging/Small War Room.

Just realised one shot was taken before I did the terrace lol
Amazing work as usual Hayley! That council chamber is absolutely to die for and the window nook by the elevator is gorgeous. Would love to see the full thing!
Thanks!! Had a great time with this build. I’d be happy to upload a second post with the other rooms, they’re just not as interesting or as unique as the ones here. This build really was a combination of Sith theme and revisiting my old Coruscant build and improving upon it. Essentially the remaining rooms are a small cantina on the bottom floor, opposite the entrance, and the three small rooms upstairs are a staging room with holomap, a mandalorian firing range and a bedroom. I’ll have a look at it and might upload a supplementary post. I wish the cap for a single post was more than 15 images, but hey.
