Poblos

Poblos is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy. It is known for its unique geological formations, characterized by towering crystal spires that pierce the planet's atmosphere. These spires are believed to be the result of a rare mineral deposit reacting with the planet's high atmospheric pressure. The planet experiences a perpetual twilight, with its sun being a dim, red dwarf star. Life on Poblos is adapted to these low-light conditions, featuring bioluminescent flora and fauna. The dominant sentient species, the Lumina, are silicon-based lifeforms that communicate through intricate patterns of light emitted from their bodies. They have developed a sophisticated understanding of crystallography and energy manipulation, which they use to construct their cities and power their technology. Poblos's atmosphere is rich in exotic gases, making it toxic to most carbon-based lifeforms. The planet's ecosystem is a delicate balance, with the Lumina striving to maintain harmony with their environment. Exploration of Poblos is challenging due to its hostile atmosphere and the Lumina's cautious approach to outsiders.
