Gazorea

Gazorea is a fictional planet featured in the role-playing game Pathfinder. It is the homeworld of the gazers, a race of intelligent, spherical creatures with a single large eye and a mouth. Gazorea is described as a harsh and arid world, characterized by vast deserts, rocky plains, and towering mesas. Its atmosphere is thin and its sun is intense, leading to extreme temperature fluctuations between day and night.

The inhabitants, the gazers, are known for their psionic abilities and their insular nature. They are often depicted as territorial and xenophobic, preferring to remain on their homeworld and observe outsiders from a distance. Gazorean society is structured around a caste system, with different types of gazers fulfilling specific roles. Their technology is primarily psionic-based, and they have little interest in conventional mechanical or magical advancements.

The planet itself is believed to be rich in psionic energy, which may be the source of the gazers' unique abilities. Little is known about Gazorea's history or its place in the wider Pathfinder cosmology. Expeditions to Gazorea are rare and often perilous, as the gazers are not welcoming to visitors. Those who do manage to reach the planet often find themselves facing not only the environmental hazards but also the psionic defenses of its inhabitants. The planet's name itself is thought to derive from the root "gaze," reflecting the dominant trait of its native species.
