A toxic world.
Toxic is one of the Biome varieties.
Summary[]
Worlds with a Toxic biome are characterized by a seemingly endless rain of toxic gunk, a muddy-looking surface that is occasionally covered by a bright film of some unknown substance, and a serious infestation of various mushrooms, fungi and highly poisonous and bizarre-looking plants. When viewed from space, the planet looks muddy and has rivers of toxic ooze flowing through. The resources Ammonia, Fungal Mould, Nitrogen, and wild plant Jade Peas can be found here.
