Sidaran

Sidaran is a fictional planet located in the fictional galaxy of Xylos. It is a terrestrial world with a predominantly arid climate, characterized by vast deserts and rugged mountain ranges. The planet's atmosphere is thin but breathable for most carbon-based lifeforms, though it contains a higher concentration of noble gases than Earth.

The dominant indigenous species on Sidaran are the K'tharr, a sentient reptilian race known for their stoic nature and advanced metallurgical skills. They have a complex societal structure based on clan allegiances and a deep reverence for their planet's geological formations. Their cities are often built underground or carved into canyon walls, providing shelter from the harsh surface conditions.

Sidaran's economy is primarily based on mining rare minerals and exporting them to other systems within the Xylos galaxy. The planet also possesses unique geothermal energy sources that the K'tharr have learned to harness efficiently. Despite its challenging environment, Sidaran has become a minor hub for interstellar trade due to its strategic location and valuable resources.

Exploration of Sidaran has revealed evidence of ancient, long-extinct civilizations, with crumbling ruins scattered across the desolate landscapes. The K'tharr themselves have limited knowledge of these precursors, contributing to the planet's enduring mystery.
