Terminus

Status: Mysterious, Volatile, Unstable
Atmosphere: Thin, sulfur-rich, highly corrosive
Surface Temp: Extreme — fluctuates wildly from freezing cold to searing heat
Travel Advisory: Approach with extreme caution; high risk of sudden eruptions and toxic storms

🛰️ Overview

Terminus (Pyro VI) is an enigmatic world on the far edge of the Pyro system, cloaked in swirling sulfuric clouds and volatile geysers. Unlike its fiery siblings, Terminus’ surface is marked by sudden temperature swings and unstable tectonic activity that challenge even the most advanced explorers.

Its toxic atmosphere is corrosive enough to eat through standard shielding over time, and unpredictable volcanic eruptions can reshape its landscape in hours.

💰 Why Bother?

Despite its hostility, Terminus is a hotspot for rare chemical compounds and volatile minerals not found anywhere else in the system. Alchemists, researchers, and daring prospectors flock here hoping to harvest these exotic resources — with gear rugged enough to withstand the planet’s constant assault.

⚠️ Points of Interest

  • The Sulfur Flats: Vast, yellow-hued plains dotted with acidic pools and geysers spouting corrosive steam.

  • Geyser Fields: Unstable geothermal vents that erupt with little warning — prime spots for rare mineral deposits.

  • The Blackened Crater: A massive impact site rumored to harbor alien artifacts and rare elements deep beneath its scorched surface.

🛑 Final Warning

Terminus is a volatile, dangerous world where conditions can change without warning. Even brief exposure risks severe equipment damage and environmental hazards.

Only the best-prepared expeditions with cutting-edge protective tech should attempt landing or surface operations.
