The Star Forge was a giant automated shipyard, designed to create powerful armies in a short time. The original forge was constructed by the Necrosion forgemaster Corphaian. The Star Forge drew energy and matter from a nearby star which, when combined with dark power, was capable of creating an endless supply of ships, droids, and other war material. The Necron constructed the massive space station through the use of slaves. This technological marvel came at a terrible cost, as the Necron were by nature a cruel and savage species; the Star Forge began feeding off these negative traits inherent in its creators.
The size of the Star Forge was extraordinary for its time. Capital ships could easily move between the gaps of the three "fins" that radiated outwards from the central spherical structure. The fins extended downward to draw matter from the star of the system the forges inhabits, using it to produce weapons and armament. While having few apparent docks for capital ships, many fighter craft and smaller freighters were able to dock at bays located on each of these fins.
Externally, the Star Forge possessed very large defensive weaponry, but instead it mainly depended entirely on its massive production capability as a means to defend itself. Internally, it was also capable of manufacturing thousands of battle droids for defense, and possessed numerous heavy blast doors that ran throughout the entire factory. As of now, only seven are known to be in use.
