Lotruxaras

Template:InfoboxPlanetLotruxaras is an old iron-rich terran moon that is the homeworld of the now extinct Lotru species, who were the founders of the once great Galactic Alliance of Ecological Planets that had the moon as it's capital. It is currently occupied by both of the super-advanced AIs The Supreme & DELYATU after the Alliance lose a devastating war to protect their worlds from the invaders. The Supreme is exploiting & mining most of the moon's resources, such as iron. While the DELYATU is trying to spread it's religion across the remaining sentient species living on the surface.

The moon's atmospheric composition is surprisingly made up of nitrogen, oxygen, water vapor & carbon dioxide, however it is too far away and the pressure is unfortunately too low for human beings to survive, even if the atmosphere is almost breathable.

Description

Nomenclature

The name Lotruxaras originated from the combination of words in the Jasmux language, these words are “Lotru”, which means “our species”, “xa”, meaning “world”, and “ras”, meaning “rich”. In other words, Lotruxaras simply means “the rich world of our species”.

Appearance

Lotruxaras is a TLf-class moon orbiting around the gas giant Huutraxa, which has over five masses of Jupiter and is a TSj-class. From space, the moon seems to have a cyan-coloured atmosphere and only a few clouds. The liquid water seas have a dark cyan tint caused by the atmosphere's color, like on some locations such as Nantak-Ro. The soil is mostly made of grey rocks & iron compounds. No forests exist but some small garden-like “mini-forests” and plants scatter across the surface. The moon has some active volcanoes which are resulted from the geological activity underneath the crust.

Astrographical

Lotruxaras is located in the outer arms of the Joparaxa Galaxy, billions of light-years away from the Milky Way. It orbits the fourth planet from the system and is the second major moon from it. The moon has been a peaceful isolated place for billions of years before the arrival of the two AIs.

Climate

Lotruxaras has a relatively stable and peaceful climate due to the lack of clouds, when compared to the climate on other objects such as on Thesoki. However, hurricanes and sandstorms are very common to happen, these storms have been a large problem for the Lotru due to most of they being so powerful that they were capable of destroying their villages entirely.

History

Ancient times

This moon's former dominant species, the Lotru first appeared around 8.2 billion years ago as an amphibian terrestrial frog-like creature that resided in the small forests scattered across the surface; 7.9 billion years ago the Lotru have fully evolved into humanoids, and learned themselves how to use fire. Cities started to be built at around 7.7 billion BCE, some millions of years after the Lotru learned how to practice agriculture & gathering for food.
