==Overview==
Bakka is a young world, highly rich in mineral wealth. They led to its colonization by [[human]]s sometime during the [[Dark Age of Technology]]. The surface of the planet consists of black islands of basalt and granite that float on a sea of cooling lava. Occasionally, turbulent flow or a meteorite strike causes fresh magma to burst from the ground. Giant machines manned by forced laborers constantly mine the world for its rich resources. The vast installations of the planet are built on the stable black rafts of rock, defended by adamantium walls and [[Defense Laser]] and [[Torpedo]] installations. Above these installations sit the vast shipyards of the Segmentum Tempestus Naval Base.{{Fn|6}}
Bakka's atmosphere is hot, acidic, and poisonous, consisting of oxides of nitrous, sulphur, and sodium mix with ammonia. As a result of its toxic atmosphere loss rates among the miners is substantial.{{Fn|6}}
