Primitus

Primitus is a fictional planet featured in the science fiction franchise, Star Trek. It is primarily known as the homeworld of the species known as the Changelings, also referred to as the Founders. The Changelings are a highly advanced and enigmatic race that can shapably alter their physical form, a trait that has led to their widespread fear and mistrust among other galactic species.

The planet Primitus itself is depicted as a unique and hostile environment. It is composed of a viscous, gelatinous substance, which is the natural habitat and a form of sustenance for the Changelings. This liquid medium allows them to move freely and maintain their shapeshifting abilities. Outside of this liquid environment, the Changelings are vulnerable. The atmosphere and conditions on Primitus are not conducive to most other life forms.

The Changelings' society on Primitus is highly communal and rigidly structured. They operate under a strong belief in their own superiority and a desire to impose order on the galaxy, which they perceive as chaotic. Their methods for achieving this order have often involved manipulation, infiltration, and warfare, making them formidable adversaries. Primitus, as their origin point, represents their isolation and the source of their distinct biological and societal characteristics. The planet's nature directly influences the abilities and worldview of its inhabitants.
