Mordane
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
- First Planet of the Star System Gandii Prime, a small planet (2,678 km diameter), that orbits a class three giant red star and has three major land masses each divided into sectors with each sector assigned to a particular race, species or planet, for the use as a cemetery for their dead. Each sector had a major Necropolis.
- A day is only ten hours, with some days of the year having as little as two hour daylight.
- Humans from the colony worlds of Folflower, Mayside, Riverville, Wystone and Humberville, had buried their dead in the allocated human continent (Alpha) for over 400 years before the planet was declared a grade two quarantine world and any contact was forbidden under Galactic Union Law.
- The Union took the decision to quarantine the planet when the dead started to come alive after dark. There was no official reason given and attempts were made to remove all references to the planet. It is believed that an arrangement with the Darksmith Collective was responsible for the reanimation of the dead that led to the quarantine being imposed. It is also known that Brother Varlow disappeared around the same time.
- Eighty years later following a visit from the Doctor and the crew of the chartered craft 'Elizabeth the Fourth', the planet was deemed safe and the planet returned to its use as a burial place for the dead of many worlds.
