Volcanus is a planet that resides in the Kr'Tal System, which is currently under control by Taldryan. It is the first orbit of Kr'Tal, the system's star, and is completely inhabitable.

History

Volcanus is an uninhabitable rock devoid of any atmosphere. A highly active planet core creates violent volcanic eruptions which spew magma from its depths constantly, covering much of the planet's surface in molten lava. The planet is relatively small, but because of the density of the spinning metals beneath it's surface, it's gravitational field is measured at a surprising .51g.

Recognizing the incredible boon of precious and dense metals present under the surface of Volcanus, several attempts were made to approach the planet and harvest the materials. The intense heat of the star and the planetary conditions made this unfeasible without highly specialized equipment. All Taldryan members have been warned to steer clear of this burning wasteland.
