    PLANET OVERVIEW

    Caeruli, an ecumenopolis, is the epicenter of intergalactic travel, government, and economy in the galaxy. Boasting a population of 25 billion living entities, Caeruli hosts over five thousand species of alien life. A thriving planet-wide metropolis, Caeruli boasts over a thousand districts with varying life, cultures, and architecture. While being a global urban center, the planet has a wealth of botanical gardens and rural simulators to maintain a connection to nature. The planet itself is rich in minerals, from aluminum to calicromium, which makes it a prime location for many galactic companies.

    Galactic powerhouse mining groups Galactic Dig and Miners Inc. call Caeruli home and host their headquarters on the planet, while having mining bases on all four of Caeruli's moons - Aeco, Aelo, Aero, and Aeto. Each moon boasts enriched soil and minerals, including byzaxium and crylium, both of which are used to fuel the vast network of trade ships that, in turn, fuel Caeruli's massive economy.

    Caeruli is host to the United Galactic Council, the intergalactic government of the Milky Way, which has membership from over three thousand species and planets in our galaxy. As the governmental body of the galaxy however, the UGC has little authority on Caeruli itself as the planet is considered neutral territory. Life on Caeruli is not lawless however, as the planet has its own security force and governmental body. As no one species has majority demographic on the planet - and of which census data is nearly impossible to gather due to unrestricted travel and immigration - the security force, Caeruli Defense Force, and government, Caeruli Life Council, are made up of species from the entire galaxy - from humans to pithnars and in-between.

    PLANET DEMOGRAPHICS

    Made up of over 25 billion lifeforms, Caeruli is called home for thousands of species of alien. Living in districts of their home cultures or commingled with hundreds or more of other species in districts near the center of the planet's city, lifeforms of any kind can find a place to call home on the planet. Among the most populous of species on Caeruli are:

    EARTHLINGS
    Kingdom: Animalia
    Class: Mammalia
    Species: Homo sapiens/humans
    Galactic Presence: Minor
    Temperament: Social

    Hailing from the planet Earth, over one billion humans reside on Caeruli. After humankind became cognizant of galactic life, Earth's governments fought to achieve space travel ahead of one another. In what the humans have dubbed World War III (a sequential event on Earth), their planet was obliterated and their species suffered massive losses. Following this civil war, the Earthlings that survived sought refuge and help from the intergalactic community. As a result, humankind was moved en masse to Caeruli, which welcomed them openly to the galactic community.

    As a result of their relative primitiveness and naivety in intergalactic affairs, humankind has only recently joined the UGC and is quickly settling itself into life on Caeruli. As a show of gratitude however, the Earthlings volunteered and joined the Caeruli Defense Force. They make up nearly 50% of the officers and soldiers of the CDF. Upon arrival to Caeruli, every Earthling was equipped with cybernetics to adjust them to galactic life.​

    OPPYLISTS
    ላقလ

    Kingdom: Xenolia
    Class: Amphibia
    Species: Stans ranae
    Galactic Presence: Major
    Temperament: Analytical

    The Oppylists were one of the five original species of alien to begin governance of the galaxy. Their history is vague and shrouded in mystery, though the entire galaxy knows they are masters of politics and leadership. Well-loved as a species among the galactic community, they rule justly, but also with a level of compassion. Of the five original species to found the UGC, the Oppylists remain the most powerful and influential. Known as one of the world peacekeepers, the Oppylists led the campaign to save humankind from extinction.

    The Oppylist are asexual beings of one gender (biologically ambiguous), but reproduce through typical amphibian means - the laying of eggs. These eggs grow in a sac located above the neck of the parent, leading most Oppylist to cover their heads and neck with shawls and hoods.​

    KAISHI
    וורווט

    Kingdom: Xenolia
    Class: Mammalia
    Species: Rapha simias
    Galactic Presence: Moderate
    Temperament: Aggressive

    The Kaishi are an ancient species hailing from Iidha in the Dark Sector. Boasting a population capable of rapid reproduction, the Kaishi have been a repeated thorn in the side of the UGC. Most recently, in 37 U.T. (ultra tempus - the yearly designation following humankind's discovery of the galactic community. In Earth years, reference as 2134 A.D.), the Kai-Ysbio Genodice occurred which resulted in the deaths of over 12 million Ysbioi (nearly resulting in their extinction) and 40 million Kaishi. The UGC intervened in the conflict and tamed the Kaishi as a result, limiting their reproductive abilities by mass execution of all but seven female Kaishi.

    As per UGC Resolution 2397.92, these seven Kaishi remain in secretive custody on Caeruli, but once every six years are given visitation and allowed to reproduce which can result in over ten thousand births. Of those births, the UGC decides the quantity to allow into galactic society. No female infants survive this culling process unless an aged Kaishi proves unable to give birth. The Kaishi on Caeruli are unruly and violent, living in Sectors 1928 and 1929 almost exclusively. Some Kaishi can be found elsewhere on the planet, but these are often considered outcasts due to their lack of aggression or desire to fight.​

    ALBASTII
    يزقي

    Kingdom: Xenolia
    Class: Amphibia
    Species: Hyacintho pacem
    Galactic Presence: Moderate
    Temperament: Peaceful

    The Albastii are a species of pure innocence, inquisitive but cautious, whose diet consists solely of water. Life on Caeruli for the Albastii is difficult given the planetwide city, but benefactors from their own species and others helped fund and build an aquatic habitation district. This aquatic district is frequented by the planet's Albastii who spend much of their time in or near this water. Across the planet are similar zones, smaller in size, to house the Albastii were there to be a water shortage in the main habitat. The Albastii are a member species of the UGC, represented by the eldest among them. Their lifespan can extend well into the hundreds of years, and as such, part of Albastii culture urges them to seldom reproduce.​

  • Being a complete nerd I immediately thought of Coruscant. Was that where the inspiration for a planet city came from?

    Either way I'm really looking forward to learning more about such a complex economy and political landscape in particular.

  • Such sweet words. ;)

    I have added three species of lifeforms to the Demographic tab! Earthlings, Oppylists, and Kaishi. I've got well over ten more to add I think, but this is a good start. :)
