Maya Kovel
this windswept planet, located in the Moddell Sector of the Outer Rim Territories, was the homeworld of the Ayrou race. The atmosphere of the planet was quite thin, and was considered acrid to the taste and smell. It was regularly scoured by intense windstorms, leaving the iron-rich soil and rock exposed to the air. This gave the planet a reddish cast when viewed from space. Where the rock had cracked into chains of rift valleys, a strange lichen took root. Green in color, this lichen would erupt from its seedcase when out of the wind and near water. These seedcases could remain vaiable for centuries until the correct conditions could be met.
