Ruorias

Ruorias is a fictional planet within the Andromeda Galaxy, notable for its unique geological formations and a dominant indigenous species known as the Lumina. The planet's surface is characterized by vast crystalline plains that emit a soft bioluminescence, particularly during its prolonged twilight periods. These plains are interspersed with towering, naturally sculpted rock spires that reach high into the planet's thin, argon-rich atmosphere. The climate of Ruorias is generally temperate, with significant variations between the equatorial and polar regions.

The Lumina are a silicon-based lifeform, characterized by their translucent, crystalline bodies and a complex internal light-generating system. They communicate through a form of photic signaling, emitting intricate patterns of light. The Lumina are a telepathic species, capable of sharing thoughts and emotions directly with one another. Their society is highly communal, with a focus on ecological balance and the preservation of their planet's natural beauty. They have developed a rudimentary understanding of astronomy, charting the celestial movements visible from Ruorias. No advanced technology has been observed, and their development appears to be largely biological and psionic.
