Description
Ruined landscape created by a fusion of two planets into one. One, the Raskvel homeworld, and the other, the Goblin homeworld. Certain political and social tensions are evident between the races, though the harshness does not compare to the merged-planet's current environmental climate and terrain. Covered in centuries worth of trash from the local population, the planet is sometimes known as "The Junkyard Planet".
