Eclipses occur every few days in the Malicar VI sky, as its view of the Malicar sun is obscured by rival Malicar V. This celestial phenomenon is often seen as a metaphor for the relationship between the planets. While Malicar VI and Malicar V began as sister colonies, they adopted rival monotheistic religions and relations quickly degraded to warfare. Malicar VI dominated the battle in space and managed to keep it from reaching the surface for a hundred years before a final decisive strike eliminated the colony on Malicar V.

Shortly after the system came under the umbrella of the government, forces from the planet and the system government engaged in a bloody space battle in orbit over the planet. The command ship of the Malicar VI defense force was destroyed, the resulting impact of the vessel against the surface of the planet caused widespread damage of the Malicar VI colony.

In recent years, development of Malicar VI has been accelerated to ease tensions between locals and the system government, with mining operations and industrialization providing work for locals, as well as the development of a vast amount of planetary infrastructure. As such, Malicar VI is one of the more well-developed planets in the Malicar system.
