Rakmos is an ice ball caught in the orbit of Gluun, a dwarf planet at the fringe of the Chuuva system. It now exists in a binary system with Gluun.1

Geography

Tectonic stress induced by tidal forces between Gluun and Rakmos has caused the latter to develop an ocean of liquid methane and carbon monoxide deep underground. When the Swarm invaded the Chuuva system, they extracted most of Rakmos' ocean and life for use as food, fuel and biomass. Due to the loss of so much of Rakmos' mass, the tidal forces maintaining its orbit with Gluun have started to deteriorate, until Rakmos will crumble, raining ruin on Gluun.1

Inhabitants

The intelligent eel-like rakmodois make their home in Rakmos' underground ocean. Most of them fell to the Swarm; some transferred their souls into construct bodies to survive, and have become single-minded in the defence of the ruins of Rakmos from any visitors. Another group sought to create a new home by taking water from the cold parts of the Plane of Water, only to invite ice elementals that killed many survivors and are now spreading their icy environment across Rakmos, threatening to destroy many rakmodoi relics.1
