Rykan V was a planet located in the Verdigris Sector of the Polaris Galaxy. This volcanic wasteland was home to the Rykan V Lava Refinery, which consisted of a number of lava tubes that reached deep below the planet's surface. The refined lava from this refinery was used to make metal for the most advanced weapons and armor in the Polaris Galaxy. Rykan V also had a spaceport near the lava refinery, presumably for outgoing metals from the refinery.
