Mainworld Topography and Geography

The world is verdant, covered in swamps, forests and jungles; it is known for its torrential rainfalls.

Native Lifeforms

Extensive native life. Breathing the atmosphere without filters is dangerous due to the concentration of plant and fungal spores carried in the air. Animal life not native to the world tends to die within a couple of days, their lungs congested with plant growths.

Fauna tends to be reptilian, ranging from finger-sized lizards up to herbivores the size of a grav tank. Carnivorous plants are a common threat to animals on Trifuge.

Native Sophont: Dphone

The Dphone are a minor race evolving on Trifuge. Current studies show that they have a simple intellect similar to (non-uplift) Terran chimpanzees.

History & Background (Dossier)
