Sekmet

When it was first discovered, everyone was just interested in the mining potential. But the first rovers where met by something no one expected.

Sekmet is a planet, brimming with volcanic activity. The service is covered in hot springs, geysers and volcanoes. The weather is super unpredictable, with "sunny" one moment and ash storms the next. The sky is black from the smoke, and the sun is a blood red sphere that you can look into without any damage to your eyes.

70% of the planet is either unfertile or to close to a volcano. These areas are covert in deserts made of obsidian, diorite and peridot. Nomadic species track through the wastelands, looking for oases.

30% of the planet is not as bad. Chemosynthetic plant-like organisms form an orange and pink underbrush, housing many animal and sub-animal species.
