| Before the terraforming reconstructed its surface, Yridia III was a rocky, barren world, uninhabitable to most life. When the Empire first stumbled upon the Yridia System, the planet was useless to them; one of many they didn't bother to initially report. What they overlooked, however, was the planet's potential. The founders of House Tarentum saw that potential and commissioned a largest scale eco-transmutation to rival that of the efforts on Telos. Yridia III’s barren rocky surface was terraformed into the most beautiful and ecologically diverse planet within two kiloparsecs of the local star systems. The world is home to a wide variety of terrains, from vast plains spanning tens of millions of square kilometers to the high mountains and their thousands of linking lakes and rivers emptying into a great ocean. The Great Basin, a crater remnant found in the Southern Hemisphere is one of the few original features from pre-terraforming times.

Geography
Yridia III is dominated by vast tracts of dense megaforests, with trees often reaching heights in excess of 350 meters. There exists an extremely complex, hardy ecosystem within these forests populated by almost innumerable variations of super predators and colossal herbivores. There exists only one major ocean on the planet, though, due to its extreme depths there is next to nothing known about its ecosystem. There is almost always at least one hurricane-level storm developing over the ocean and another hammering the mainland. The average rainfall on the planet is more than some entire sectors.
Though much of the planet is at sea level, there are several large mountain chains towering above the low-lying forests. These mountains are blanketed with much smaller, though also denser, vegetation than the lowlands. It is here that the Imperials built their small complex of now overgrown buildings.
The Pyramid, base of the Nekros Syndicate and once the base of the now closed House Reinthaler and battleteam Spectre, can also be found on Yridia III.
