Pictae (planet)

Pictae was a Romulan planet, aclass M world located in the Gasko sector of the galaxy's Beta Quadrant, in orbit of the star system. Originally the site of a Tal Shiar prison camp, the system was abandoned by the Romulan Star Empire in the 24th century. 

History
In the 24th century, this system was the site of a Tal Shiar prison facility for individuals who were valuable enough to keep and not to kill.

When Natasha Yar attempted to escape with her child Sela from Romulus, Yar and the other Enterprise-C prisoners captured at the Battle of Narendra III were relocated to the camp on planet Pictae.

Following the Hobus supernova in 2387, the Tal Shiar abandoned the system but left prisoners and guards behind.

In 2411, the Tholian Assembly attempted to kill the remaining survivor to eradicate temporal anomalies sprouting on Pictae and it's orbit. The lone survivor, T'nae, was rescued by Temporal Agent Timot Danlen, Sela, and their Alpha Quadrant Alliance escort, rendering the system truly abandoned.
