Description

Betlow - Lush planet that left it's orbit after a collision with a big meteor. It took the planet several solar cycles till it re-stabilized in an orbit around it's sun. During this time the planet was bombarded with projectiles while crossing the meteor belt of the system, turning the planet into desolate wasteland. After joining a stable orbit, and with the passing millennia the giant meteor craters developed life, mirroring the rich fauna and flora of the early planet. For a long time the inhabitants of these craters thought that there is nothing outside of their small communities, but with the passing of time curiosity helped them venture outside of their craters and eventually discover other craters with slightly different inhabitants. All of Betlows sentient species evolved four arms to help them easily scale the walls of their craters looking for the most nutritious berries the Frodka. Due to the relatively small size of the crater habitats the Betlow people evolved to a herbivore people. Outside of the craters life was very harsh. Strong winds blew that made travel almost impossible, and giant electric storm sweep the inter-cratal area. These storms calm down and release all their precipitation when reaching the craters. It took several generations to develop wind maps that helped guide the Betlow people from one crater to another. First aliens who arrived to this planet were stranded until they managed to convince the Betlow people who were schooled in reading the wind maps to help them leave. Most common trade item for this planet is it's rich and diverse nutritious food found in all the craters. While the Betlow people gladly trade for technological goods.

Thanks man! Did a six months internship at Guerrilla Games I must say it is amazing what you can learn from people who work in the industry. So many shortcuts so many easy ways to express what you want. I thought I knew Photoshop before I went there And still even know if I know 20% of PS that's much.
