Legend

the second planet in the Laboi System of the Outer Rim, Laboi II had a year which encompassed about 4,050 standard hours. Laboi II also had a slow, retrograde orbit that caused one side of the planet to remain sunward. This created a "day" that lasted about 2,020 hours. During this time, the planet's sun, Er'Dox Kaan, heated one side of the planet to the point where rocks began to melt. When coupled with the fact that the other side of the planet was locked in sub-zero temperatures, strong winds were created at the terminus which helped dsitribute the heat and cold evenly. This allowed minimal forms of life to exist on the planet. Laboi II had no natural plant life because of the searing effects of its orbit, but the Laboi, the ovolyan, and numerous species of insects were able to adapt to the extreme temperatures of the planet.
