Wallis VII, more commonly referred to as Vuzar, is the seventh planet in the system.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

It isn't known if Vuzar has a permanent population, but during the thirty-first century wealthy residents of Wallis were known to vacation on Vuzar to escape the high humidity and tropical temperatures of Wallis.[1]

Geography[edit]

Vuzar is a cold world and is predominantly covered with ice and snow. The equatorial regions of the planet are warmer than the rest of the planet, to the extent that humans can visit the equatorial regions using simple snow suits.[1]

Notes[edit]

Determination at Wallis is set on Wallis and provides a description of Port City, the Bora Valley, and numerous other terrain features.[33]
