Davun

Davun is a fictional planet located in the Cygnus Arm of the Milky Way galaxy. It is a terrestrial world with a temperate climate, characterized by vast oceans and a single large continent. The planet's atmosphere is rich in oxygen and nitrogen, making it suitable for a wide range of life forms.

The dominant intelligent species on Davun are the Xylos, a sentient reptilian race. The Xylos have a complex society with advanced technology, primarily focused on bio-engineering and sustainable energy. They live in harmony with their environment, utilizing natural resources with minimal impact. Their cities are integrated into the landscape, often built underground or within massive, bio-luminescent flora.

Davun's ecosystem is diverse, featuring a variety of flora and fauna. Large, herbivorous creatures roam the plains, while agile predators inhabit the dense jungles. The oceans teem with marine life, including colossal filter-feeders and vibrant coral reefs. The planet experiences two distinct seasons: a long, warm period of growth and a shorter, cooler period of rest.

Culturally, the Xylos value knowledge, community, and ecological balance. Their art forms often depict the natural world, and their music incorporates the sounds of their planet. They have a rich history, with oral traditions and ancient ruins hinting at past civilizations. Davun is not currently known to have contact with any other interstellar civilizations, though Xylos probes have been sent to explore the wider galaxy.
