Despite the difficulty of living on these planets, some are still inhabited - [[Books]] about the [[Research#Tox gas|Tox gas research]]{{BiotechIcon}} can reference the author "''research[ing] cloud control tech for the tyrannocracy of a deathworld''",<ref>[[Research#Tox gas|Tox gas research]] subject_story strings.</ref> which implies not only people living on the planet, but a system of government. [[#Zartza|Zartza]], [[#Rayth|Rayth]], [[#Spectra|Spectra]], [[#JNovahex|JNovahex]], [[#Carthago|Carthago]], and [[#Grimcore|Grimcore]] are also referenced as being deathworlds.<ref name="Book descriptions"/> |
