D'vouran

D’vouran

Spoiler

If you haven’t noticed the name of this planet probably originated from devouring because that’s just what this planet does. This planet is alive. It moves sending starships crashing into it. Little by little people start disappearing. The only inhabitants not eaten were Enzeen a blue-skinned, hair of spikes parasite that lives off the land literally. In the middle of the night some people have heard slurping noises. That is from the Enzeen who are eating the planet. The planet allows them to do that because they bring more food for the planet. At the heart of the planet people and aliens are digested slowly as the planet uses each and every piece of nutrient. It is a pain that is supposed to last 1000 years. You are eaten alive. The people disappear through little holes in the ground that the planet makes leaving no trace of the victim. The Enzeen claim “Our Goal is to Serve”. What they’d rather do is serve you to D’vouran. There are two things that can protect you from getting eaten: something that can hover over the ground or a specially designed amulet. Unfortunately the amulet was accidentally tossed into the heart by the lead Enzeen, Chood, when he fell in after the rest of the Enzeen. This amulet also deflected laser fire. This made the heart go crazy and the planet turn to mud like a molten planet. The planet used to be a beautiful blue-green. The planet was found by the Misanthrope captained by Bebo. The imperials sent a report that everyone had died except the captain in the crash however most of the crew survived, and sent out a distress call. The crew was disappearing and they knew they needed a place to stay. They stumbled across an Imperial outpost and made it there base camp. However they still had to check the distress beacon. Everyone who went out to check it didn’t come back. Finally only two remained Bebo and his friend Lonni. Lonni refused to come out of the hideout until Bebo finally convinced everything was safe and then she was eaten on the way. D’vouran is the first of six scientific experiments made for the Empire to destroy the rebels. However when it D’vouran swallowed the amulet it spun out control. Unfortunately the planet survived and was last seen in the outer rim.
