Legend

the murky atmosphere of this Expansion Region planet hides the mountains of wreckage and trash that cover its surface. The planet was, at one time, a mineral-rich world dotted with manufacturing facilities. Overuse and mismanagement turned it into a biological wasteland dotted with the blue, green, and yellow fires of burning refuse. The atmosphere of the planet is laden with machine fluids, toxic wastes, and other rotting gases. Hidden within this scum is The Yard, headquarters of Syndicate One. The Syndicate chose the planet for its remote location, and after purchasing the world has changed official records to note as anything from an airless moon to a worthless gas giant. The planet orbits a pair of stars in the V1-V2 System, and is the only world of three which supports life. The average day on Valgauth lasts 26 standard hours, and its year takes 669 local days.
