LV-426 colony

New Galveston, formal designation LV-426, is a rocky planet that was first explored and mined for the mineral trimonite. The mines were eventually closed and the planet abandoned, but many years later it was colonised, being formally named New Galveston. There were numerous small settlements, but only three major settlements, which were connected by train tubes. "The Sea of Sorrows" is an old toxic mining area where miners found a trimonite vein and a huge Teramorph nest. The Sea of Sorrows is where many bounty hunters and mercenaries are employed to look for Teramorph specimens to kill, which results in the death of many of the hunters.

Teramorph infestation
LV-426 is well known for it's scattered Teramorph nests. The biggest of known nests, is the one by The Sea of Sorrows. It is estemated around twelve full size adults live in the underground tunnels, with an uncounted number of eggs, larvae, and pupae. On many occasions, Teramorph pupae have been recorded to enter settlements and cause issues. They mostly enter through vents or airlock doors unnoticed, but some have been known to appear from a human host. At least twenty deaths have been recorded from these incedents.

Bounty attractions
Multiple bounty hunters and Mercenaries come here to hunt Pupa Teramorphs. Sometimes (but rarely) groups of hunters will hunt an adult, but this is rare due to obvious reasons.

Jelsa and Redry
Most hunters come here to get rich, but some are hired. Jelsa Zoris and Redry bulka are some examples. Some say they are the best Teramorph hunters around.
