Lenuamund:
- Orbital Distance: 0.3 AU
- Orbital Period: 0.2 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 0.675
- Radius: 11,975 km
- Day Length: 42.1 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: Trace atm
- Surface Temp: 367 °C
- Surface Gravity: 1.14 g
- Mass: 3.989 Earth-masses
Lenuamund’s scorching hot surface is composed of lime with deposits of copper. It has faint traces of a nitrogen atmosphere. The elcor have left it untouched, aside from orbital probes that monitor the planet in case anything noteworthy should one day occur.

Dekuuna:
- Orbital Distance: 1.1 AU
- Orbital Period: 1.1 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 1.1
- Radius: 10,387 km
- Day Length: 68.4 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: 1.02 atm
- Surface Temp: 29 °C
- Surface Gravity: 4 g
- Mass: 10.53 Earth-masses
- Satellites: 1 (Oltan)
- Homeworld: Elcor
Capital: Sereuun, Malvuon, population 2,350,000,000 (pre-invasion; before The Reapers)
The elcor homeworld, Dekuuna, overflows with natural resources protected by law, from large deposits of precious metals to vast forests. The elcor themselves live in rich grasslands near the equator. The majority of Dekuuna’s settlements are tucked within this belt, as the conservative elcor feel little desire to build outside their comfort zone. Their twin capitals are for migrations from the wet season to the dry season, a tradition made obsolete by modern technology but still observed.
After the destruction of the elcor navy, Reapers moved in their ground troops to occupy the cities. This has taken longer than most civilized worlds, as the elcor have spread out into smaller, distant settlements, reflecting their preference for close-knit family communities instead of densely packed cities.

Oltan:
- Orbital Distance: 625,369 km
- Orbital Period: 44.45 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: _ 17.863
- Radius: 2,822 km
- Day Length: 44.45 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: N/A atm
- Surface Temp: −40 °C
- Surface Gravity: 0.24 g
- Mass: 0.047 Earth-masses
The first mission to Oltan, Dekuuna’s moon, was a century in the making. Elcor leaders felt resources for space travel could be better used on their homeworld, and it took decades of persuasion to secure project funding.
Archaic harvesting stations that recovered helium-3 from the moon’s regolith were still functioning when the Reapers invaded, and the elcor stationed there were able to flee the system.

Telluune:
- Orbital Distance: 2.0 AU
- Orbital Period: 2.9 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 0.951
- Radius: 11,274 km
- Day Length: 57.6 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: 61.04 atm
- Surface Temp: 418 °C
- Surface Gravity: 1.56 g
- Mass: 4.838 Earth-masses
Telluune is named after the first elcor settlement in recorded history. The planet’s name roughly translates to “the deep and restful meadowland,” which is somewhat of a misnomer, given that Telluune’s thick, crushing atmosphere keeps its surface boiling hot, and the air is a noxious mixture of carbon dioxide and helium.

Sangel:
- Orbital Distance: 8.1 AU
- Orbital Period: 23.1 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 0.996
- Radius: 75,335 km
- Day Length: 9.7 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: N/A atm
- Surface Temp: N/A °C
- Surface Gravity: N/A g
- Mass: N/A Earth-masses
When Dekuuna’s government learned that the Reapers had returned, they evacuated everyone on Sangel’s helium-3 recovery platforms. The sizable hydrogen-helium gas giant was abandoned, its workers relocated to Dekuuna. The move was ostensibly made because the elcor homeworld was a more defensible position. In reality, it may have been motivated by a subconscious herding instinct, as most grazing creatures come together in large groups when predators near.
