Description
Title:

This is probably a bit self explantatory, no mysterious back story, just a planet sitting alone within the clouds of dust surrounding it and its moons.

Story:

Magnus Umbra, a human colony founded in 2143. The planet was discovered when a space probe drifted into its gravity field and came crashing down to the planet. Its automated distress beacon allowed nearby colonies to attempt a repair mission. When they traveled through the dust and ice they were taken into the gravitational pull of the planet, while being able to maintain control they promptly landed on the planet and began exploring. The planet proved to be extremely dangerous during storms as winds would reach up to near 200 mph within seconds and without warning. However, despite the obvious dangers there were many sheltered craters that could escape the gusts. The craters were made my mineral rich asteroids that had impacted the planet and Magnus Umbra became an interest to human mining companies.

Since then, Magnus Umbra has been undergoing colonization and profitable mining.
