## Summary

There is no harsher place in the universe at present than a Sulphur world. The high winds blow rocks around that can do some serious hurt to you. The pools of boiling hot sulphuric acid aren't incredibly healthy either. A complete lack of air just makes it worse. The few monsters that live here are savage, tough, and extremely powerful.

## Location

Sulphuric planets can be found orbiting Binary, Radioactive, Red and Temperate Stars.

## Exploration and Dangers

Sulphuric worlds have three primary environmental dangers. Hostile weather scours the surface, pools of Sulphuric Acid lurk below, and the atmosphere itself constantly deals acid damage. Several methods exist to lessen these hazards, however.

Most if not all of these planets have no breathable atmosphere, and require some form of breath protection to not suffocate. Most upgraded EPPs can provide this for the player.

Crops such as Whitespine and Crystal Broccoli provide temporary protection against atmospheric acid damage. Whitespine in particular seems to be commonly found on the surface of Sulphuric worlds, making for a risky but potentially viable survival method. Additionally, any piece of Armor which includes acid protection will have the same effect and also provide immunity to Sulphuric Acid as long as it is equipped. Many of the common types of weather, however, appear to have *no* countermeasures, making surface exploration dangerous even for the best-equipped adventurers.

In addition to the deadly environment, Sulphuric worlds contain very powerful, aggressive wildlife. It is strongly recommended that players bring bandages, stim packs and buffed foods with them regardless of their intentions to fight. Tread with caution!
