Saaruq-5 is the outermost habitable planet in the Saaruq-Ruaan star system, a binary system located in the Vast. It is the homeworld of the syngnathrixes and one of the worlds of the Kreiholm Freehold, a federation of local species and species originally from the Scoured Stars.1

Geography

Saaruq-5 is a lush tropical planet with massive bodies of water. The duration of a day varies, but usually lasts 36 hours from first sunrise to second sunset, among which there are 12 hours of twilight.1

History

Centuries ago, the Kreiholm Freehold, one of the eight civilizations that departed the Scoured Stars, arrived and settled on Saaruq-5, and were joined by the native syngnathrixes. They have since then spread across five planets, but keep a peaceful, isolationist policy.1

In 318 AG, Saaruq-5 fell under attack from the jinsuls, one of the alien groups that left the Scoured Stars alongside the Kreiholm Freehold, who seek to conquer their old neighbors under their rule.1

Inhabitants

The syngnathrixes are native to Saaruq-5. After the arrival of the Kreiholm Freehold, they joined the federation, and today the planet is inhabited by various species, most notably syngnathrixes (46%), nelentus (39%), and thyrs (2%).1
