Plytra

Plytra is a fictional planet featured in the tabletop role-playing game Starfinder. It is located in the Pact Worlds system, orbiting the star Abra. Plytra is known for its diverse biomes, ranging from lush jungles to arid deserts, and its inhabitants, the Skittermander. Skittermanders are a quadrupedal, six-armed species known for their generally benevolent nature and their insatiable curiosity. They are often depicted as helpful and eager to assist, though their actions can sometimes be chaotic due to their enthusiastic nature and multiple limbs.

The planet's surface is dotted with numerous ancient ruins, hinting at a lost civilization that predates the Skittermanders. These ruins often contain valuable artifacts and lost technology, making Plytra a popular destination for adventurers and treasure hunters. The Skittermanders themselves have a rudimentary understanding of their history, often incorporating fragments of the past into their oral traditions and folklore.

Plytra's atmosphere is breathable for most common species, though some areas may have unique atmospheric conditions or airborne flora and fauna that require specialized equipment. The planet's economy is largely based on the export of exotic resources found in its various biomes, as well as the trade of artifacts recovered from ancient sites. The Skittermanders are known for their craftsmanship, particularly in weaving and the creation of intricate tools and toys. Travel on Plytra can be challenging due to its varied terrain and the presence of dangerous wildlife, requiring well-equipped expeditions.
