Description: The crystal planet Shownar in Parmic Sector is a place of stunning natural beauty that not even the introduction of gfalactic civilization has dimmed. The planet is unique, consisting of three large land masses that are entirely compsed of a rare form of Vertag crystal. The crystals formed in spires several kilometers tall, which at night glow with faint blue light. The wind rushing between the spires at higher altitudes creates a haunting, ghostly harmonic wave, called "Shownar Lullaby" which is incredibly beautiful and soothing.
Most spectacular, though, is the planet's proximity to the celestial oddity, the Torch Nebula. The Torch Nebula is an immense cloud of gases and elements, or "star stuff", that at night fills Shownar's sky with a spectacular light show of blue and red fire.
