Chort Bay

"Dense, toxic fumes from deep within the planet's crust seep out of cracks in the earth and coat the ground in a sickly haze."

- Official Description

Chort Bay is one of the four planets that reside within the Lacaille Sector.

Topography
"Chort" is a Slavic language term for a devil or imp, which given the topography of the planet is appropriate. The planet is covered by a sickly moor, characterized by it's high temperatures and abundant toxic fumes, which seep up from the planets crust.

Acid storms regularly sweep the planets rocky surface, reducing visibility and leaving behind abundant pools of acidic water, which whilst not acidic enough to burn through a Helldivers uniform, are unlikely to be safe for human consumption (bottled water is recommended for long deployments). Some hardy plant life does somehow survive on the planet, though certainly not thrive, with only some sparse grasses and shrubbery managing to cling to life.
