Talos is a volcanic planet in the Outlands and the home planet of Bloodhound. Initially deemed uninhabitable, after the discovery of a rare mineral compound, the IMC invested in cooling towers to make the landscape hospitable. Today, the planet falls under Syndicate jurisdiction and contains a vast, untamed wilderness, holding rustic resorts used by the wealthy elite of Psamathe and Gaea as well as small quiet villages like those inhabited by Bloodhound. Octane has used the wild terrain for his daredevil stunts such as snowboarding down the mountains and outrunning avalanches yet stopped due to the poor reception and a close encounter with Prowlers. Goliaths, Flyers and Prowlers are the main fauna although the Goliaths are rare and are difficult to kill. Goliaths are notable as they can raze villages and are highly aggressive, however Bloodhound did succeed in killing one.
