Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Pyviro is a Meso World between 12,000km and 13,500km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.8G and 1.1G. The horizon will appear about 5.1km away. Vessels with 1G of thrust should check with local starport authorities before attempting to land using emergency power.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Pyviro has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Pyviro has 95-100% of its surface covered by liquid water with only a few islands and archipelagos. Wilderness refueling is possible. Such worlds are Water Worlds or Ocean Worlds.

  • the vast oceans are storm-wracked and turbulent.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Abundant, diverse, primarily aquatic native life filling every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

  • There is little land. Few species have colonized the archipelagos and islands that dot the surface.
