Planet Twin Tabula
Mass: 4.1 trillion teratons.

Profile: Planet is best known for 'Twin Fever', a disease caused by a viral strain native to Twin Tabula. In the early stages of the disease, victims suffer from double vision. When the 'twin sight' fades, the victim is near death.

[edit] Etymology

Tabula was a board game in the tables family, and is generally thought to be the direct ancestor of modern backgammon. It also refers to a "tablet" or "slate" for inscribing on, in Latin.
