🌋 Geology & Atmosphere

Kael’Thera is a volatile, tectonically hyperactive world with its crust constantly reshaped by deep magmatic upwellings and surface fissures. The atmosphere is thin but breathable for many advanced species, laced with neon gases that create dazzling auroras near volcanic ridges.

The molten seas that glow orange and violet are rich in Tavoric plasma, a rare element used in energy weaponry and starship cores.

🧬 History & Culture

Kael’Thera was once the sacred proving ground of an ancient race known as the Kaelari, who vanished 90,000 years ago. Their obsidian ruins remain scattered across the lava fields and sky-bridged cliffs—most untouched, save for glyphs that depict beings ascending through flame.

The Yautja consider Kael’Thera a sacred hunt world, where only elite hunters may go to earn their final rite: the Molten Passage—a ceremonial solo hunt amid collapsing terrain and plasma storms.
