LV-118

LV-118 is a planet presumably located near LV-117 in the Lenocinium Velnero System, and shares that planet's Chaosteros and Arachnosaur lifeforms as well as its tendency to attract crashing starships. Due to a disturbance in its star system, LV-118's orbit is deteriorating, causing dangerous seismic activity across the planet as it slowly falls towards its star.

2005 IDW continuity

Long ago, Wheelie arrived on LV-118 after somehow acquiring a spaceship on LV-117. The Stars My Destination He brought at least one Chaosteros and Arachnosaur with him, making them introduced species on the planet. Syndromica (2) At some point after that, an Ilxian Tantiv-Nas ship crashed on the same planet, killing most of its crew. In his efforts to get off the planet, a surviving Ilxian scientist calling himself "Admiral" began experimenting with different power sources for the salvaged ship, but this only served to damage LV-118's atmosphere and cause methane rain to routinely ravage its surface.

Years later, Rodimus and the Matrix of Leadership crashed on the planet after drifting through space for some time. Following some problems with the Admiral trying to use the Matrix as a power source and a sudden Chaosteros attack, he met Wheelie and allied himself with him and Garnak, one of the Admiral's goons. Together they stole his ship and left LV-118, leaving the Admiral and his other goon stranded. The Stars My Destination

When the Reflector trio passed through the system in search of LV-117, Spectro spotted a planet with an erratic orbit which was presumably LV-118. Syndromica (2)

Notes

• LV-118 wasn't named in the issue it appeared in, but Garnak names it in "Out of the Silent Planet".
