Falak

Falak is a giant rock believed to have come from outside of the galaxy and gotten caught in Charybdis’ orbit, going counter to all other planetary orbits, some ten or fifteen million years ago. Though composed primarily of various metals, crystals, substrates, and dust, unlike many other worlds it has absolutely zero atmosphere- even though its gravity is about three times what the Earth’s is, it has no gases around it of any form.

It also holds a number of alien elements that are not known in our galaxy, as well as a number of bizarre crystalline structures that seem to be fossils. Falak used to have several habitat structures on it, but those all perished in the Collapse as support fell off. The planet rarely sees travelers due to the high gravity making both landing and leaving very difficult, but the rare travelers that do visit often use these habs as a safe place, since demons don’t seem to care about gravitic constants and are known to be a problem there.
