EXPOSITION

Jatharis is the third moon from Tarsaeas, and orbits between Haroukol and Arrax. Jatharis is the largest moon around Tarsaeas, roughly half the size of Earth, with similar characteristics. It is quite young for a moon of its type. The moon is known for its striking appearance and history.

LIFE

Life slowly began to form much more steadily, thanks to the volcanically active core and rich atmosphere. Life on Jatharis is primarily aquatic, with a few grasslands on the surface, but no definitive large multicellular organisms like trees or animals. Jatharis is also home to numerous species of squid-like creatures, resembling those of a Giant Squid from Earth or the Parovquin from Trivonis. The native life is currently simple, as there is no real biological threat on the surface. For now, it is safe to assume that life will likely remain the same for a few more thousand years, from patches of grass to bacterial colonies, or the simple prokaryotic single-celled lifeforms feasting on the hydrothermal vents kilometers below the surface.
