Felkarran

Felkarran is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy. It is known for its vibrant, bioluminescent flora and fauna that illuminate the planet's surface during its extended periods of twilight. The planet orbits a binary star system, resulting in complex light patterns and a unique climate characterized by warm, humid days and cool, misty nights.

The dominant intelligent species on Felkarran are the K'tharr, a sentient insectoid race. The K'tharr possess a hive-mind social structure and communicate through a complex system of pheromones and subtle seismic vibrations. They are known for their advanced bio-engineering capabilities, having extensively adapted their environment and themselves to thrive on Felkarran. Their cities are organic structures, grown and shaped from native plant life, seamlessly integrated into the natural landscape.

Felkarran's atmosphere is rich in oxygen and contains trace amounts of a unique gas that enhances the bioluminescence of its native organisms. The planet experiences frequent, gentle rainfall, which nourishes its lush jungles and vast underground river systems. The K'tharr have developed sophisticated methods of water management and energy generation, largely drawing from geothermal sources and the planet's abundant bio-energy. Exploration of Felkarran by other galactic civilizations is limited due to its remote location and the K'tharr's preference for isolation.
