Plant Life

Most plant life is reflective of the planet it originates from. For example, most of the plants that come from Kappan, the blue planet, will look mostly blue in color.

The plants and flowers are exotic looking and similar to what you would see in a rain forest on Earth.

The flowers resembling orchids and birds of paradise are predominant.

All vegetation is edible, except for the red fruit called Tarana, on the red planet of Ratran.

You can find fruits, berries, and nuts that are similar to what is on Earth, except for the coloring and the taste. Most fruits are sweet.

Animal Life

There is a variety of animal life on the different planets. Most are a source of food.

Most common on all planets are the flying corcas. They look exactly like swans but are red in color. The Katierans eat these birdlike creatures on special occasions. It is said they taste much like turkey.

There are pig-like creatures called grunts that populate most of the Lunas.

Katierans have what is similar to zebras without the black and white stripes called torpis. They have colorful spots instead. Some Katierans ride the torpis for recreation.

Water

Each planet and Luna have their own source of water.

The Katierans do not believe in contaminating their water or food sources, so they do not swim or bathe in the water on the planets. However, there are springs on the Lunas that they use recreationally.

The water color is usually reflective of each planet. For example, the waters of Katiera are green.

Power Source

The main power source that is used throughout the Katieran Nation is solar power.

With Katiera’s two suns; they never run out of power.

The other positive aspect to having two suns is the weather. The temperature never gets below seventy-five degrees on Katiera.

The large ships use a different type of fuel that aids with space travel. The Tija stones are mined from several of the Lunas and turned into a fuel source viable for space travel.

Anatomy and Physiology

Katierans are very similar in appearance to humans.

The average Katieran male's height is six foot six and they weigh in at approximately two hundred pounds.

The average Katieran female's height is five foot seven and the approximate weight is one hundred twenty pounds.

All Katierans have gold pupils. Their eyes glow in complete darkness.

Senses

All Katierans share highly developed senses. They can see, hear, and smell up to approximately five hundred feet. They have very sensitive taste buds.

Physiology/Biology

All Katierans have a universal blood type. Their blood is blue while inside the body like humans. Due to differences with the molecules and plasma, when the blood hits oxygen it turns a yellowish color. Katierans body fluids, especially their sexual fluids, have a sweet flavor to them. Katierans’ sex drive is much higher than humans and they have a faster recovery rate.

Katierans Body Covering

Their skin coloring is a golden bronze, very similar to Earth’s Native Americans. They have very little body hair. The hair is mostly found on their head and some males will have facial hair like beards.

Cultural Beliefs

The Katieran people believe in ditheism. Ditheism is the belief in two equal Gods. The Katierans worship the female Goddess KatieRI and the male God KiljOR. The Goddess and God are a mated pair. The Katierans’ whole culture is centered around the mated pair of Gods. They believe mating is for life.

Story of the Star Mates

The big star represents the God KiljOR. The little star beside it, represents the Goddess KatieRI. Together they are known as Star Mates. It is said the God KiljOR took one look at the Goddess KatieRI and knew she was the one for him. The two Gods fell in love and became mates. They were happy together and their happiness spread to the Katieran people. Blessings were granted and bond mates were found all over.

Eventually KatieRI and KiljOR wanted to have children. In order to do this, each one had to give up some of their Godly powers. They had twins—KiljAN and KajAN. The first set that ever born on Katiera. The twins were demi-gods, weighted with mortality.

KiljOR was a warrior God. As were his twin sons. They were battling another warring nation and the twins fell. KiljOR took his sons back to their mother who was devastated by the loss. To honor his sons and to help his mate deal with her grief, KiljOR used all of his Godly powers to turn his sons’ bodies into the two Suns of the Katieran Galaxy. IljAN the small red sun and AjANs the large yellow sun. No other set of twins have been born on Katiera since.

It is said that KiljOR lived the rest of his life as a mortal and KatieRI stayed by his side. At his life’s final moment, KatieRI used all of her Godly powers to transform the two of them into the two stars that circle Katiera. They are called Star Mates. KatieRI did this so they would remain by one another’s side for all eternity.”
