Virgil I

Virgil I is a uninhabitable terrestrial rocky planet in the Virgil System. Once settled and terraformed by humans, known for his natural beauty, the planet was bombarded and harvested by Vanduul in the 28th Century.

History
After the discovery of the Virgil System in 2412, Virgil was chosen to be terraformed and settled. Because the planet soil contained "super nutrients", the terraforming process was uncomplicated. In a matter of years, the planet's atmosphere had been equalized to Earth standards becoming a Lush planet, with tropical vegetation.

Virgil was settled and grew into an exotic tourist destination and productive agricultural planet.

After the appearing of the Vanduul in 2681, Virgil became a military outpost, with Antimatter stockpiles and spacecraft repair facilities. After the Fall of Tiber the Vanduul attacked the Virgil and overwhelmed their weak defenses. They sacked the planet and killed hundreds of thousands of humans. The UEE abandoned and evacuated the System.

Features
Virgil moves around its orbit in 203 days. The atmosphere of the planet is poisonous and in a state of permanent nuclear winter, filled with ash clouds.
