Kal'rat I
Kal'rat I is a planet in the Kal'rat System, which is owned by the Sulethis Republic.
Kal'rat I is an extremely hot planet due to its close distance to the very bright spectral class A star. As such, it is mostly considered a lava planet despite its lack of any atmosphere. It reflects most of the sunlight that hits it, causing it to glow a bright orange in the night sky of Kal'rat III, but its sheer proximity to this extremely bright planet means it has still formed lava on the surface. It is exploited by the Sulethis Republic, who have extracted a large amont of material from the planet already.
The Tranal Nomads often arrives in orbit around this planet to trade materials with the SR, especially on long expeditions where the kaph'tal want to visit Kal'rat III. They often need raw materials to construct new supplies and parts to keep their worldships operational.
In ancient times, the ancient Kaph'tal cultures often saw this planet as a god of war as it shined so brightly and was red in colour. Many looked up to this world in prayer when it was visible, as they saw the god being in the sky as a sign of war. Many prayed to it for peace. It was quite rarely visible in the sky, though, as the star was much brighter and it is located so close to the star.
