Heicoron IV
Heicoron IV is an ocean planet in the Heicoron system in Near Space. The only planet in its system to support life, it is home to the amphibious humanoids known as woiokos.1
Geography
98% of Heicoron IV's surface area is covered in water.1
History
Some time before the Gap, Heicoron IV's sun expanded. The planet warmed, melting the ice caps and drowning most of the planet's archipelagos, and with them the holdings of the woiokos.1
Heicoron IV was only recently discovered by explorers from the Pact Worlds.1
Inhabitants
The main intelligent race of Heicoron IV is the woiokos. After the global flood, they have dabbled in genetic tinkering and divided themselves into two subraces: the Floatborn, who live above the water in floating arcologies, and the Deepborn, who adapted themselves to aquatic life and rebuilt their old homes, now on the sea bed. The two subraces have little contact with each other.1
