- Sun crystals were precious stones found on Jazbina and the Forest Moon of Endor. The fragile gems had the ability to exponentially reflect and brighten light. Exposure could lead to light addiction and, ultimately, blindness. The stones were highly sought commodities on Jazbina, where they were mined, and on Endor, where treasure hunters had to face the perils of the Black Cavern to obtain them. Miners on Jazbina had to contend with large Tikulini worms in the sun crystal mines and were forced to wear protective eyewear when dealing with the gems. Luke Skywalker was nearly blinded by sun crystals on Jazbina.

| - Sun crystals were precious stones found on Jazbina and the Forest Moon of Endor. The fragile gems had the ability to exponentially reflect and brighten light. Exposure could lead to light addiction and, ultimately, blindness. The stones were highly sought commodities on Jazbina, where they were mined, and on Endor, where treasure hunters had to face the perils of the Black Cavern to obtain them. Miners on Jazbina had to contend with large Tikulini worms in the sun crystal mines and were forced to wear protective eyewear when dealing with the gems. Luke Skywalker was nearly blinded by sun crystals on Jazbina. Sun crystals were highly coveted by both the Ewoks and Duloks of Endor, and over many years, several adventurers perished trying to take them from the perilous Black Cavern. An Ewok warrior from Bright Tree Village succeeded in this quest in 97 BBY, and this particular sun crystal became a symbol of courage to the warrior's tribe. The Ewoks established a ritual whereby a youth had to maneuver through a set of dangerous obstacles in the crystal's presence and thus prove his or her mettle and earn a badge for his or her Belt of Honor. While the Ewok Wicket Wystri Warrick was undertaking such an ordeal, the Dulok prince Boogutt cut Warrick's vine and caused him to crash into the sun crystal and shatter it. Both Warrick and Boogutt were rebuked by their elders, prompting them to venture into the Black Cavern to obtain a new sun crystal. Inside, they faced a variety of hazards, including the guardian of the sun crystal, and barely escaped with their lives. Warrick had to sacrifice the newly obtained sun crystal to save Boogutt from the guardian beast, but he was rewarded with a piece of the smashed gemstone for his Belt of Honor.
