[edit] Description
The planet Introa is the largest planet in the Mohara system (commonly referred to as the Introa system), and is the home planet of the Introi species. The most notable feature of its oceans is that they are freshwater, allowing the Introi to have long lasting sea voyages.
[edit] Moons
Introa has two moons: Tlee and Roo. Tlee is large, and very close to Introa, having major effects on tides and the Introi, who associate it with battle and war. Roo, while smaller and more distant, holds an important place in Introi society, being associated with the divine.
[edit] Weather
Introa is a tropical planet, with average temperatures at 44°N 38°C , and annual rainfal at 62 mm annualy. Due to a complex pattern of winds that even out the temperature, the equator is only 4°C warmer than the south pole (the nothern hemisphere is not affected). This hot, humid enviroment allows rampant plant growth, but makes most Introan life forms dependent on large amounts of water. Introan seasons are often hard to tell apart, but roughly divide into four: The first season of the Introan year is cool and dry, the second season is cool and wet, the third is hot and dry, and the fourth is hot and wet.
[edit] Geography
There are four continents on Introa and many, many islands. The main continent, Erido, is very large: It is about twice the size of Antarctica, and in the same position. Although it is located at the south pole, warm winds keep the continent as hot as the tropics. Another feature of Erido are the large chasms that criss-cross close to the south pole, ringing a massive crater. These chasms, vreated by a massive metor impact Billions of years ago, are where the Introi originally evolved. Methia is the second continent: It is largely temperate and mountainous region. Methia was the last continent to be discovered, do to its northerly position. Jeviot was the first continent other than Erido to be colonized, due to its close proximity to the Nyor valley (a wide expanse of grasslands and rivers, bordered by the Nyor mounatins). The last continent is Xy, a thin, volcanic, strip of land near the equator.
Introa is the capital planet of the Natrian Empire.
