Ash wasn't really happy about having to stop for supplies at this planet, but there was no way his ship could make another jump through the warp without proper repairs. For that he needed proper supplies. He left Breaker on board the Milan, not trusting the vibes he got from the planet enough to think it was safe for her. He gave a long sigh as he entered orbit with his shuttle, he was just planning on laying down a few probes to find the raw materials he might need, and then harvest and refine them himself. He had all the proper protective gear he might need. He had a bit of an annoying time finding a clear enough spot to land, but otherwise no real problems doing so. - Ash for 40k Eòin
Aside from the poles the entire planet was covered in thick forests, the land occupied by jungles and rainforests, the seas choked with kelp and mangroves.
Through the trees ash could see a flowering and fruiting undergrowth, even some of the nearby trees bore heavy fruits. Of course the suit sensors spotted the imediate danger, the pollen released by the flowers was aactually a powerful nerve agent that would leave ash 'Dead' in minutes, Ash himself could see vines hanging near fruit that were clearly developed to stick to and wrap up any animal unfortunate enough to get too close.
Fortunately this was no Catachan so there was little risk of one of the trees bending over and swallowing him in one bite while he set the probes.
