Bovis Tor:
- Orbital Distance: 0.7 AU
- Orbital Period: 0.6 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 0.953
- Radius: 7,307 km
- Day Length: 33.5 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: 8.39 atm
- Surface Temp: 253 °C
- Surface Gravity: 1.6 g
- Mass: 2.084 Earth-masses
Named “the shining sea” in an old volus language, Bovis Tor is so named for its boiling surface rich in glowing-hot alumina, flecked with dark ridges of carbon. Its thick atmosphere of nitrogen and oxygen is no indicator of life, since the temperatures are simply too high.

Talis Fia:
- Orbital Distance: 1.6 AU
- Orbital Period: 2.0 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 1.024
- Radius: 7,550 km
- Day Length: 33.8 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: 6.15 atm
- Surface Temp: −25 °C
- Surface Gravity: 1.7 g
- Mass: 2.364 Earth-masses
- Colony: Volus
Capital: Usra Dao, founded 385 CE, population 3,800,000,000 (pre-invasion; before The Reapers)
Mass Effect 2
Talis Fia is a planet capable of supporting life — if that life happens to breathe ammonia. Discovered by asari explorers, the planet was used as a bargaining chip by the Citadel Council, who quickly drafted a colonization agreement with its wealthy client race, the volus. The Council would fund the volus colonization effort in return for massive trade benefits. With uncharacteristic enthusiasm, an enormous volus influx ensued, and the Council reaped the economic benefits for a dozen years before the colonization bubble burst.
Today, the economic good times on Talis Fia are long gone, and modern volus businesses are cutthroat operations. Piracy is a grave threat to shipping, as well-armed criminals see the volus as easy prey.

The Reapers found Talis Fia easy prey. The independent planet had a defense fleet only sufficient to handle small-scale actions. Its high population and industrial base, once a deterrent to war with other Terminus system worlds, has only served to attract a larger number of Reapers than usual.

Doz Atab:
- Orbital Distance: 3.1 AU
- Orbital Period: 5.5 Earth-years
- Keplerian Ratio: 0.985
- Radius: 47,428 km
- Day Length: 10.3 Earth-hours
- Atmospheric Pressure: N/A atm
- Surface Temp: N/A °C
- Surface Gravity: N/A g
- Mass: N/A Earth-masses
An ice giant, Doz Atab (“sky warden”) has a bluish tinge from its hydrogen-methane atmosphere. Its axial tilt causes its seasons to vary wildly in temperature.
