    --------------------------------------------------------
    The Tafania System consists of one gas giant and two planets, the middle one being the only habitable for any visitor:

    • Tafania-IG [GAS GIANT]
    • Tafania-IID [HABITABLE]
    • Tafania-IIB [BARREN]
    Visitors of Tafania-IID are advised to bring necessary supplies [FUEL, FOOD, WATER] as the planet does not contain any advanced settlement.

    [Environment]
    Being rather close to Tafania's star, it is a desert environment with no real diversity. Without external help of brought supplies, a person not adapted to this climate will most likely die out of dehydration, hunger, or sunstroke. It's surface is large, reaching about 3/4 of Earth's.

    [Resources]
    Upper layers of the planet are not rich in any valuable resources, yet going through the sand and stone, few kilometers down occasional large pools of crude oil can be found.


    [Population Size]
    People from advanced civilizations that have encountered Tafania's population have all concluded that it is impossible to make a count of how many sapients live on the planet. Though it was implied that no more than 10.000 live on it.

    [Settlements]
    The population consists mostly of Nomad tribes of Fenerox, which travel from the most important treasures of the surface, rare oases. They are tribes that very rarely contact each other, as transforming into bigger groups result in increased consumption of supplies. Being adapted to the environments among with sparse desert faunas, Fenerox nomads began to create traps hidden in sand which they mark on the maps. Their monthly routine consists of travel between every trap, collecting caught animals. Being descentands of Xinoddus slave refugees, they grasp the basic concept of Galactic Common which allows visitors for communication.

    [Backstory Permissions]
    Open, though it's vital that the resident has to be either a child of a visitor that decided to make it their homeplanet, or a Fenerox that was taken from Tafania with help of a visitor.

    [Notes]

    [One of the people looking for isolation at Tafania-IID made an astounding discovery, something that could change lives of surface dwellers. Yet, it is kept secret, being known only to a small circle...]

    ....::Suazi Caves::....

    ....::Location::....
    Tafania's desert is filled with entrances to caves and tunnels going deep underground. Though almost all of them do not lead anywhere, being only a place for animals and Fenerox to rest from the sun, there are few that are an entrance to another world, opposite of what is above.
    Although naturally there are around 4 tunnels going in and out of the Suazi Caves, only one is known to the limited group of people. Next to the entrance an uncommon struction is standing, a 15-meters high signal jammer, with signs of neglect and numerous solar panels. It is located at the northern arctic circle. The tunnel is a winding path that goes for three kilometers,until there is a rift of unknown depth. Luckily somebody made a rope hanging above it.


    ....::Local Environment::....
    What seems to be a desert planet with little sources of water, appears to have a second layer. The second layer is a biological paradise for flora and fauna, as it's based on large natural water tanks and dirt enriched in minerals. This microbiome is slightly colder than the desert above, reaching maximum +26C degrees. The region seems to be the only place where trees appear, evolved to live without sunlight probably when Tahiana was still a healthy planet millions of years ago. The fauna is vast, creatures simillar of alligators being end-of-the-foodchain predators that roam Suazi's waters. Main source of light comes from glowworms, either bright green or yellow. Other animals that live in the depths of Suazi are large fluorescent toxic toads, fish and turtles of medium size with spiked beaks, being the only worthy rival of the alligators. Though being the source of life, water is not drinkable for most of the species as being a closed-off microbiome made it polluted, which makes it in need of distillation before drinking. Some accounts say that if you drink enough, you can actually hallucinate.

    ....::Settlements::....
    Because it is a region shrouded in mystery, no town or settlement is there. But somebody has to live there, as few know about it not without a reason. It is a perfect place to hide...
