Eox, the Dead Planet, is the sixth planet from Golarion's sun.1

Description

Once a fertile planet populated by a very human-like race of geniuses, the planet became the site of the greatest disaster in Golarion's solar system. Ages ago, an ancient magical war ended with the destruction of the planet's atmosphere and the end of all life. The planet is now inhabited by countless undead who need no air to survive.12

Eox also is beset by deadly, mutagenic magical radiation fields.3

Rune representation

In scholarly works, Eox is sometimes represented by a rune: a circle surmounted by a larger, diagonal cross, the lower right bar of which is lengthened and then crossed itself.4

Gazetteer

Satellites

Many objects orbit Eox, including:2
