Stelma

Stelma is a fictional planet that appears in science fiction media and role-playing settings. In most depictions, Stelma is located in a peripheral region of the galactic sector known as the Nebula Ring, orbiting a K-type star. Surface conditions are variable, with polar ice caps, sub-surface oceans, and geothermal regions that drive localized weather patterns. The planet hosts diverse ecosystems, including hardy megafauna adapted to cold climates and a network of subterranean cave systems.

In-world history often centers on early colonization by explorers seeking geothermal resources, followed by periods of isolation and trade with neighboring worlds. Political organization varies by narrative but commonly features a local council or a planetary consortium that coordinates resource management, science, and defense. The Stelmians, a recurring in-fiction population group, are described as resilient settlers with a culture emphasizing cooperation and technologic resilience.

In gaming and tabletop roles, Stelma frequently provides resources such as ore deposits and renewable energy sources, as well as unique biomes for exploration and research missions. The term stelma may also appear as a surname in fan-created worlds or as the name of a fictional location within fan-fiction communities.

Because Stelma appears across multiple works, details differ between sources.
