Meljar

Meljar is a fictional planet located in the fictional galaxy of Xylos. It is characterized by its predominantly arid landscape, with vast deserts and sparse vegetation. The planet's atmosphere is thin and rich in nitrogen, with trace amounts of oxygen, making it challenging for most known life forms to survive without specialized equipment. The dominant species on Meljar are the Kylos, a sentient reptilian race known for their resilience and advanced technological capabilities, particularly in the fields of terraforming and energy generation.

The surface of Meljar is dotted with numerous rocky mesas and deep canyons, carved by ancient, now-dry riverbeds. The planet experiences extreme temperature fluctuations, with scorching days and frigid nights. Its two moons, Lumina and Umbra, influence tidal patterns in the planet's small, saline oceans and contribute to unique celestial phenomena. Meljar's primary economic activities revolve around the mining of rare minerals and the export of energy derived from geothermal sources. The Kylos society is structured around a council of elders, with a strong emphasis on communal living and resource management. Historical records suggest that Meljar was once a much greener planet, but a catastrophic event, the nature of which is still debated, led to its current desolate state.
