Virshash (World) Synopsis

Virshash is a high-population Imperial world located in Urlaqqash Subsector of Reaver's Deep Sector.

Description

Virshash has a notably dense core and a diameter of somewhat over 16,000 km, giving it a gravity of 1.75g, and is part of a relatively close double-star system; the second star of the pair produces high levels of radiation, which Virshash's dense atmosphere only partly blocks.
