Purfyr is a remote agricultural world off the main trade routes but visited occasionally by merchant ships trading gourmet foods, wines, and pharmaceutical plant extracts. It is known to have experienced an outbreak of the "glowing plague" which is a viral form of the ancient genetic disease iron deficiency porphyria. The disease was developed years ago by one of the world's nation-states as a biological weapon and released into the atmosphere..
