Soramur

Soramur is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy. It is known for its diverse ecosystems, ranging from vast, arid deserts to lush, tropical rainforests. The planet's dominant intelligent species are the Lumina, a sentient race characterized by their bioluminescent skin and telepathic abilities. Lumina society is structured around communal living and a deep respect for nature. They have developed advanced technology, particularly in the fields of bio-engineering and energy manipulation, which they use in harmony with their environment.

The planet's atmosphere is rich in oxygen, supporting a wide array of flora and fauna. Unique to Soramur are the crystalline forests, where trees are composed of silicate-based structures that refract light, creating dazzling displays. The Lumina have a complex spiritual system that reveres the planet's life force, which they call the "Aetherflow." They believe the Aetherflow connects all living things and is the source of their telepathic powers.

Soramur's history is marked by a period of great technological advancement followed by a conscious decision to prioritize ecological balance. This led to the development of sustainable technologies and a societal shift away from aggressive expansion. The Lumina are generally peaceful and have limited contact with other galactic civilizations, preferring to focus on the preservation of their homeworld. Their cities are seamlessly integrated into the natural landscape, often built within or around the existing geological formations and flora.
