RISIJIS , a UP member world which has absolutely nothing else of interest on it. Posted by Greybird on :
Starhaven, naturally!
You just haven't seen us in the holonews recently because we've escaped most of the attention of the United Planets government, as yet, in this version of Legion reality.
At least, little has been set up beyond trade and consular relations. We'd rather sit back and be productive, entrepreneurial types, taking in credits all over the Orion Arm from navigation and bounty-hunting.
When the Legion decides to recruit some supremely fast, ultra-accurate trackers, though, to go beyond just the pathfinding it's been getting, we're ready to help. My sister has applied to be a cadet already!

NEW RULE!
At this point I am going to jump in an make a new rule. Since the goal of this game is to come up with as many planets (or other significant planetary bodies) as possible, duplicate placenames will be disallowed.
When the exact same place is known by two different names (i.e. Earth/Terra, Colu/Yod, Pirate Planetoid/New Tartuga) using one will preclude use of the other.
So, we are still on "T." Try again, Vee.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
NEW RULE (2):
I tried had to come up with a "Q" this last round before IB beat me too it. Since the goal is to come up with as many worlds as possible, I hearby declare that a majority vote of all those who have posted at least one world thus far will be sufficient to declare a letter spent.
Of course, this won't precluse someone from posting a planet of that letter, should they know of one, once it comes around again. But once the vote is take, that letter can be passed on in order to keep the game going.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
And while we are waiting on Vee to come up with a "T," here is an update of where we are to date:

quote:Originally posted by He Who Wanders: PB didn't say it had to be planet. Only a place or setting.
I know, but being fickle, I reserve the right to change the rules as I go along.
Since starting the game I have decided that I'd like to get a planet count, and see how many worlds we can come up with. Although I am counting named moons, planetoids, and specific intersteller regions (i.e. the gorilla nebula)
So under this interpretation, the UP would not count. It is the same as if we were doing countries... Germany would count, but not NATO.
Of course, to continue the thread once we have exhausted worlds, we can debate which ones were actual UP members...

What is this planet known for? Or, barring that, in what issue did it appear?
Posted by Varalent on :
We've agreed to skip "U" as completed (I believe) so I'll continue with a "V" (How appropriate! )
Vasmeer home of Mog Yagor, one of the heroes memorialized on Shanghalla
Posted by Impulse I on :
I think Ranna-# was mentioned in the Secret Files of the Legion on the big long list of UP and AP plantets I think.. but I can't remember the exact # of the planet just that it was called Ranna... I could be totally wrong though.

Yorgg the planet of origin of Yorggian fever which "froze" RJ Brande in human form.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
Do we know Yorgg is a planet. Was it even specifically mentioned? Could Yorgg be the name of the microbe causeing the disease, or the scientinst who discovered it?
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
Of course, there is also Yorrg, the world on which a young Lex Luthor pretended a virus was turning him into a lizard.
Should we count Yorrg and Yorgg as the same world, much as we do Zoon and Zuun?
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :

Canopus has already been used. We'll need another "C" please.

My bad, I should have checked myself before posting. The correct spelling is Yorrg and Yorrgian fever. Here's the entry from Chaim Legion help file...
Yorrg
Yorrg is a planet inhabited by bipedal reptiles (Adventure Comics # 325). It is the source of Yorrgian fever, a disease that both R. J. Brande and his cousin Doyle had been afflicted with (Secrets of the Legion of Super-Heroes # 1-3, Legion of Super-Heroes (3rd series) # 8).
As for a "C" how about Cizea a world inhabited by sentinent birds which look like Earth pigeons.
I believe "F" is up next...
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
Yikes! Sorry about the Canopus thing. I should have checked the list first.
Falkone IV, a world where the development of firearms was impossible.
Posted by Juan on :
Grall III, Comet Queen's Homeworld
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
Hyrnak is a world that gave the Legion, as a gift, a plant that grows into an animal.
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
So, do we skip I? I can't think of anything anymore. What do you guys think?
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
I have not found any other "I" through the first four volumes of the Archives. I vote we skip. If someone finds one they can slip it in when "I" comes around again.
So, for now, the official skip list includes: I, Q, U
Posted by Varalent on :

Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
VAALOR-7, another briefly mentioned UP member world.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
W-27y My notes that I made on the first 4 vols. of the Archives, just for this thread, only say "Legion vs. creatures," so I assume the Legion fought something there.
Posted by Varalent on :
Xak~ home of one of the planetary heroes that refused to help the LSH fight the Sun-Eater. Also home of the Xakkan Raiders.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
YW-89 As opposed to WD-40, I suppose. It's somewhere in vol 4 of the Legion Archives, can't remember what, if anything, was special about it.
Posted by Portfolio Boy on :
And, I'll post a "Z" just so I can post a list of what we've come up with so far in preparation for the next round.
Zinnat Home of the animal books. No, not books about animals, books that are animals.

Hey, Juan! Thanks for the welcome! It's great seeing you too!
(and no, I don't have any E worlds either...)
Posted by Obadiah Oldbuck on :
Well, since I can't think of an "E," of an "F," I'll declare both letters to be passable, and move on to:
Grxyor- Homeworld of Antennae Boy

SPACEOGROPHERS THUS FAR (12): Chaim Mattis Keller, Comet King, DrakeB3003, Greybird, He Who Wanders, Impulse I, Invisible Brainiac, Juan, Lightning Lad, Portfolio Boy, Saturn Girl, Varalent, Eryk Davis Ester
Hydra World is the homeworld to a race of 3-headed beings.
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
I can't think of an I, or J, either...
Posted by Obadiah Oldbuck on :
Well the, how about a "K" or an "L"?
Posted by Obadiah Oldbuck on :
At this point, let just open it up to any world we can think of not already listed....
Posted by Future on :
I'm skimming through random issues of Legionnaires for obscure (and not so obscure) planets visited during the post-boot days...
Earth's moon, Luna, has been the home to Leland McCauley's corporation and battleground for several Legionnaire adventures.
Wellur, the planet of purple, cat-like humanoids who lived in fear from the Legion as their king used the Legion's likenesses to kill citizens. Cos, Imra, and Garth destroyed the likenesses and disposed of the king, though the citizens never truly warmed up to the Legion. One of the better stories of the late Legionnaires run.
Athram, homeworld of the aptly named Athramites! Fashion lovers, all.
Silvan, I believe, was the homeworld to one-time Legion draftee Lume. He never joined the team, but later aided M'Onel in saving his people from Khunds in Legionnaires #56.
Binder-T is a desolite planetoid where Mordru's talismans were hidden by Mysa...to no avail.
Tharn was the ice-world Kinetix's mother was on a dig at when she found a wounded Mysa Nal. The magic Mysa enshrouded them both with affected the unborn Zoe, establishing a link between Kinetix and Mysa.
That planet seems quite the opposite from the similarly named world Tharr, the humid and hot homeworld of Polar Boy!
..whoo boy. That's about all I can find for now. I'm sure there are many more planets mentioned only once in this era of Legiondom though.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
quote:Originally posted by Obadiah Oldbuck: Well the, how about a "K" or an "L"?
Koobar! Matter-Eater Lad went there on a mission once. Personally, I think he just made the whole thing up.
Posted by Juan on :
Here are the ones that I didn't get to post:
Arctoraan, homeworld of Ambassador Jeryl
Amadus, homeworld of Blockade Boy
Buenapar, homeworld of Silver Sword, one of the heroes kidnapped in the Universo Project storyline
Medicus One
Minerstown, homeworld of Bounty
Manna 5
Pax Colony, the homeworld of Circadia Senius
Pretzor, where Command Kid is from
Stratus, planet with large estates where the Emerald Empress formed her new Fatal Five
Shwar, Fire Lad's homeworld
Simballi, Plant Lad's homeworld
and then a whole bunch of T's:
Tartarus, where one goes to look for Evillo Tyrraz, the strange homeworld of Tyr Trewsk, from the Omen/Prophet storyline Touston, homeworld of Calamity King Turabeau, homeworld of Charma, and Tsauron, homeworld of Ontiir
then I have
Verzwei, a planet of cooky doctors where Shady brought Mon-el hoping he'd be cured
and Zwen, Stone Boy's homeworld
phew!
Posted by Infectious Drura on :
Fangmar, the world that Brainiac 5 and Superboy were on while Princess Projectra was dying of the pain plague (slsh 209)
Ricklef II-the planetoid Laurel Gand was from pre-boot.
um, Czarnia homeworld of Lobo, who appeared in the 'quiet darkness' story. LSH v4 21-24 I think...
that's all I can think of for now!
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Shall I post the lists from the LSH Help File, to see how well we did?
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Incidentally, I count about 323 entries in the Help File, just for the preboot!
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
We sure have missed a lot, haven't we?
Binderaan, Thunder's homeworld in the 90th century, which is so far uninhabited in the 31st.
Omega Colony, mentioned in Legionnaires 60 as the current Karate Kid's homeworld.
Calish Aetia, homeworld of the 5-year Gap Legionnaire Echo.
Teall, Quislet's other-dimensional home.
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
Almeer-5, a planet which XS visited when she was lost in the timestream.
Phlogista, a fiery planet which the Legion first visited through the use of the Anywhere Machine.
Mellorus, an aquatic world of fish-creatures seen in the reboot.
Manna-5, homeworld of the heroine Xera, one of those captured by Universo during the Universo project. She later enrolled in the UP Military Academy run by Chuck and Luornu.
Quaal-III is Comet Queen's homeworld.
Also, the following worlds were included in a list of UP member planets published in LSH Secret Files 2: Ardemo, Chiron, Cyranus, Domar, Gahhn, Ganz, Mohado, Orsde, Remor, Rovann, Rygor, Syngtom, Tanvor, Toonar, Tsuron. I'm sure many of these worlds had more interesting backstories in the preboot.
And here are some AP member worlds: Aktar, Alkoz, Bismari, Brogg, Karak, Nara, Plevitz (P. Levitz, get t? ) , Ronn, Soirreb-3, Torad, Zygarr.
