The Laphrion is a space dock on the orbital station and gateway to Pleuron to the west and Calydon to the east. It contains a disused gravtrain station that connects directly to both Modoc and Coldwest.
The connected maintenance wings are good places to collect machine parts and tools. Spacecraft parts are found here in higher abundance than anywhere else on Calydon. Some mutants reside in the recesses of the Laphrion, such as Messiahclopses and Yowies.
The inside the Laphrion has a lower pressure than the rest of Calydon's atmosphere. The F. solaris was highly polluted by the spacecraft traffic that frequented this docking site. Consequentially, characters in this zone will experience severe penalties unless they have found or made a sufficiently reliable space suit. A strange coincidence of this environment is that the engineered F. obnitus grows very efficiently here on almost any surface.
It is typically held in contest by either the Mountain Warriors or the CRA, although sometimes by the Frumentarii.
