Template:Stub Australis Prime is temperate habitable terra orbiting a young star at the edge of the Aylothn Galaxy. It houses the seat of government for this local sector. Template:Ambrosia: World

Geography

Australis Prime is a tropical world. At the equator summer temperatures reach 60 degrees C, whereas there are hardly any polar ice caps. Australis Prime has 2 major continents, a supercontinent named Aurus, and a large sub-continent named Corialis. Oceans on the planet add up to the grand total of 1 - Helios Oceanus.

Aurus

Aurus has many types of land. At it's very heart, lies the geographical south pole of the planet, and is mainly dominated by small trees and bushes. Lichen grows in abundance here. Towards the coast, there are tropical beaches and lakes, reaching temperatures of over 40 degrees C in summer. This is were most Mulihians are found, albeit many kilometres below the surface. In places, the continent rises into the northern hemisphere, which is mostly dominated by Helios Oceanus. If standing directly below the rings on a clear night, one will always see meteor showers, due to a phenomenon called "ring rain." Often, ring rain renders the equator mountainous, and uninhabitable, but the rings of Australis are made of fine grains of rock, which rarely hit the ground. Even so, it is not advised to be here.

Corialis

Corialis is a small continent near the north pole of the planet. It is mainly dominated by grasslands and rainforests, and is scarcely inhabited. Around the East coast lies a mountains range, which protects the heart of the continent from rain, forming the only desert on the entire planet. Very little amounts of life may be found in central Corialis.

Helios Oceanus

Helios Oceanus is a very large ocean that covers almost the entire northern hemisphere. It ranges from boiling to moderately cold, and hosts 80% of the entire biosphere of the planet. Wherever you are in the ocean, the seas will be filled with all sorts of amazing creatures. Many floating research laboratories have been set up in this sea, to study all manner of living things in this ocean. Less that 5% of all life in the oceans have been discovered, by last estimate.

Climate

The climate of the planet ranges from almost freezing to almost boiling. Most life can be found in the sweet spot between the two, although it has been known for entire ecosystems to be found at the extremes. Clouds cover the equator at times and produce vicious storms there. These often rip up trees, blow down houses and generally make a huge fuss.

History

Pre-HIstory

Presumably Australis Prime formed some 3 billion years ago, far from it's star, and then drifted in. This melted the ice on it's surface, creating warm oceans of water. As it got closer, it's only moon came closer to it and eventually passed inside it's Roche Limit, being torn apart into Australis' beautiful rings. Life evolved around this time, and it wasted no time. Within a hundred million years, life had dominated the planet. Nothing much happened for the next billion years or so.

Modern History

Australis Prime was first discovered in 76 992. It remained a uncolonized habitable planet in the backwaters of the galaxy. Then, when Ximnola was discovered, it was colonised as a research facility to study the anomalous planet from a distance. It was then that a joint Human-Zythn team stumbled upon the entrance to a Mulihian den. A Mulihian found them, and ate them, presumably mistaking them for food. It then died from carbon poisoning, as Mulihians are silicon-based. Another scout party went looking for the first, and eventually stumbled upon the dead body of the first Mulihian . They then reported this, and began first contact, and the beginnings of the Theocratic Monarchy we see today. Their threefold joint culture developed over the next 20 308 years, until we have what we have today.

Population

The population of Australis Prime is quite large, due to the three-dimensional cities that the Mulihians have.

Population
Species	Population	Most major population centre	Location of most major population centre
Human	822 000 000	Southern City	Latitude -75, Southern Aurus
Zythn	1 233 000 000	Mali Kuhluman City	South Pole
Mulihians	87 000 000 000	Zxing Muaa Swel	Stretches under most of what is northern Aurus

Flora and Fauna

Many million of life forms live on Australis Prime, ranging from the tiny parasite Tulliamonter Yusligh, which is the size of just a few million atoms, to the gigantic Losthuliamonter Jumneri, which is over a kilometre long and has a geological life span. The most notable include:

Template:!Species Infobox

Lithonim Xuliamonder

Lithonim Xuliamonder is a large whale-like creature that rests kilometres down under the surface. Over the course of it's life it excretes a corrosive acid which hollows a large cavern out for it.

Reproduction

The Lithonim Xuliamonder does not reproduce sexually, but through a new way unknown to any species before. When it dies, it's body lies there for a few years until it decays. A small sexual organ situated in it's belly now activates, (knowing through contact with the air) releasing a sperm and egg. These grow inside of the organ, which can swell up to 20x it's original size, until it bursts, with a new Lithonim Xuliamonder sitting in the body of it's parent.

Life Cycle

The Lithonim Xuliamonder grows inside of the sexual organ of it's parent for over a decade until it is ready. It then bursts the organ, and sits on the ground. At this time it looks like a misshapen heap of flesh on the ground, and over the course of a few months prominent limbs start to emerge. The head and the tails. The Lithonim Xuliamonder has two tails, each to prod inside of the cavern walls to hold it steady. After a few hundred years, it undergoes another change, with which it fully matures. It's skin hardens to diamond-strength, and the tails are imbedded for life.

Ollomust Virungus

Template:!Species Infobox Ollomust Virungus is a avian creature that

is aerial and aquatic. It mainly lives in the air, but makes it's nests at the bottom of the Helios Oceanus.

Reproduction

Ollomust Virungus reproduces sexually, having elaborate mating dances that can incorporate over 50 Ollomust VirungusI. These dances take place in the air and in the ocean. They do not have the normal Male-Female system, however, they incorporate of 100 documented sexes. Each sex comes from a slightly different area of the planet. Sexes are constantly dying out, and being replaced by new ones.

Life Cycle

Ollomust Virungus are hatched out of eggs at the start of every Australisian Year. They are swim up to the surface, where they form cocoons, hanging from their parents wings. They then hatch out, and learn to fly. They reach sexual maturity at age 10.
