Erpao was a small planet in the Cynon system with an abundance of volatile naturally-occurring organic compounds such as hexane, benzene and butane. Additionally, graphite cliffs and pipes containing diamonds were scattered throughout, making Erpao a mining opportunity. This over-saturation in natural carbon, however, prevented life from forming naturally, but allowed for limited habitability.

abstract	Erpao was a small planet in the Cynon system with an abundance of volatile naturally-occurring organic compounds such as hexane, benzene and butane. Additionally, graphite cliffs and pipes containing diamonds were scattered throughout, making Erpao a mining opportunity. This over-saturation in natural carbon, however, prevented life from forming naturally, but allowed for limited habitability. In the skies were clouds of concentrated carbon dioxide, which combined with hydrogen cyanide and sulfate particles ejected from volcanoes to produce hydrocyanic acid rain and sulfuric acid rain. This acid rain consumed the soft soil and washed into large cracks that led to the subsurface. Benzene flowed on the surface as both a liquid and in gelatinous pools where it collected, particularly underground. Occasionally, magma from the planet's core would strike a pool of benzene, igniting it, and blasting away as much as fifty tons of regolith. This created a large "pow" which could be heard from as far as 300 km away from the event. (The sound lent to the naming of the planet.) Additionally, excess hydrocarbon steam was ejected back into the atmosphere where it combined with the acidic clouds, fell back to ground level and pooled again. Erpao remained a dangerous planet to the mining guilds that attempted to get close to the mineral deposits. Some brave contractors moved in only to end up standing above a benzene ignition. Those that survived the initial explosion were heavily dosed with carcinogenic particles and did not survive long afterward.
