Lirithose is a lightly-populated planet within the Krittain star system and member of the Caspian Democratic Union. It does not possess a significant atmosphere and has a beaten, cratered landscape from the constant bombardment of asteroids and other space debris. All inhabitants were placed here for the purposes of mining and research, with the majority of settlements constructed underground or in reinforced domes. Lirithose, like most of the other planets in this system, has several small moons. The largest of significance is Montrose.
