Time is the Essence
Name: Interitum
Region: Yuuzhan Vong Galaxy
System: Ultima Domus
Suns: Two, Facem and Dies Stella ,A and M respectively
Orbital Position: Habitable zone
Moons:
Remains of a moon, one large piece that was half the moon and many smaller asteroid sized pieces
System Features: Interitum has a very elliptical orbit, due to the fact that the two suns are located right next to each other. There are three other planets, all of which are uninhabitable for varying reasons. Two are outwards from the planet and one is closer to the stars. There is the possibility that between the two suns is a black hole, which was why the two suns were brought together. However this theory has not been proven and no black hole has been found.
Coordinates: N/A
Rotational Period: 67 standard hours
Orbital Period: 320 local days
Class: Terrestrial
Diameter: Undetermined
Atmosphere: Type II due to excessive amounts of ash and slightly poisonous gases in the air
Climate: Mostly Volcanic
Gravity: 1 and ¼ standard
Primary Terrain:
Mostly Volcanoes and surrounding destructive areas, most of the land itself is hardened rock with many old structures. There are small oases that have completely clean air, at this point they appear to defy understanding at this point.

Unidentified extinct species, possible mutations living below ground or inside volcanoes.

Major Locations:
Only surviving locations of value are the original main city (Name:Unknown):
This city, while no factual information could be found on it, appears to have been a great center for this planet. The city’s full history is lost, however there is the possibility for much knowledge to be gained from anything that might have survived the volcanoes’ eruptions.
Also the largest volcano on world, affectionately named Torch:
The closest image to have been captured, the surrounding area is constantly filled with smoke and storms
This volcano is the largest on planet, and appears to be the only one that continues to be active. This makes the volcano incredibly dangerous and also a most interesting study. There is a single cave that appears to have been hollowed into a side area within the main chambers of the volcano. The cave leads nowhere in particular, simply to the heart of the volcano. There appears to be no reason for this, it is possible that it was a sacrificing ground for the locals before everything became extinct. There is also a Dark Force nexus here; not very strong it leaves one with a feeling of dread and anguish. The surrounding land and sky seems to be affected by this aura and the volcano is constantly shrouded in lightning storms.
The original eruption was apparently so large that it blotted out the suns for 5 local days over the entire planet. That seemed to be the beginning of the end for this planet’s people.
Initial eruption:
- Force Nexus: The Volcano's inner chamber has a small Darkside aura, it does not seem to increase one's power so much as give one a feeling of dread and anguish. The Nexus is believed to have been created by the continual sacrificing of people there, however there are other possibilities as the history of this planet is mostly unknown. It cannot increase a person's power, only give one an emotion.
- Size: Area
- Intent: To add a piece of fluff to the planet that will hopefully fill out the planet's history and make it appear more real.
Culture:
From what little history that has been read, historians assume that this planet’s people tended to spend much time working on technology. This specific line of work was encouraged by the fact that the planet, while very green and beautiful, did not seem capable of supporting agricultural plants. The soil was too weak to sustain the plants.
Also the people were superstitious, supposedly. This may be shown by the fact that they often would have circular rooms in every building; these rooms didn’t seem to serve any other purpose than possibly meditation or prayer.
These people seemed easily aggravated to battle. That may have been why their society does not currently exist, as will be discussed in the History section.
Apparently the people were led by a select few who named themselves the Interitum’s Hand. The reasons for this are unknown and how this government worked is also unknown.
Technology:
The people of this planet seemed to be fairly technologically developed, building machines and having them sent to many places in the galaxy. This love of technology may also have been part of their downfall.
History:
While this planet’s overall history is sketchy at best, a basic idea has been theorized by historians. None of the below facts are certain as most of them are assumptions made by historians with little hard evidence.
It is believed that these people, due to their technological affinity, would often export it for foods and what not. This led to a possible dependence on other systems, though this has not been verified. The planet’s leaders led the people to become a more aggressive people, so that they would not be intimidated by the arrival of future enemies. This proved to be a large mistake when the Abominor arrived.
Apparently the people put up a fair fight; however they were no match for the self-constructing droids and soon fell to them. Then another strange robotic people attacked the planet to destroy the Abominor, apparently certain events led to a catastrophic eruption of the planet’s first volcano. The planet soon became inhospitable to most species and the two droid factions moved on, leaving a destroyed planet in their wake. Later the Yuuzhan Vong would arrive to find the planet in shambles, but the people still very alive and even more hostile towards outsiders.
While the people were capable of fighting, they found themselves once again weaker than their enemies. Their planet’s moon, which had been partly transformed into a battlestation by one of the droid species, was a blight to the Yuuzhan. They destroyed it with their far more powerful weaponry and began executing the people.
There appears to be no reason for it, but the planet became more and more volcanic, and the natives began worshiping to the volcanoes. There were many sacrifices held within the largest volcano, which is believed to be the reason that it grew a Dark Side aura. The people continued trying to survive, but there was simply no way to defeat the Vong.
The theory is that they went extinct thanks to the genocide committed by the Yuuzhan Vong. There are no survivors as of yet has been found. There are theories as to them living in the planet's crust, however such theories are so far unproven and not very likely.
