Furya is a dead world in the Furyan System, once the homeworld of the Furyans, a thriving spiritual warrior race. In one genocidal wave, the Necromonger Empire culled an entire generation of Furyans. The planet has an eccentric orbit that makes it difficult to chart. It is also considered cursed. For these reasons, the planet is rarely visited. In Pitch Black the invasion happened 25 years ago, and 30 years as of The Chronicles of Riddick.
