Siveril

Siveril is a planet in Sector 4, orbiting a white dwarf sun. It is the only planet in the system and plays host to a titanic variety of plant life. Its biosphere is of great interest to scientists.
==Description==
===Surface===
Siveril is a standard terrestrial world, with more ocean than land and a large variety of climates.
===Colonies===
There is one major colony, independent of any outside governance. Recently, they granted permission to the United Planets Armada to patrol the area as a precautionary measure.
==Life==
===Flora===
The planet's plant life is of extreme interest to researchers. It is often difficult to find planets orbiting white dwarfs with any life, much less such a great diversity of life (albeit only plant life, save for the K'Mrent). Scientists have reported that the world has the most advanced plant life known to exist.
The plant life is very efficient, photosynthesizing at ten times the average rate and producing very nourishing fruits and vegetables. A few of them are even motile, able to walk on their own and even attack wayward colonists. The colonial government forbids entry into the forests unless the would-be explorers are doing so on official scientific or military business. Another exception is if the explorer is of a species that can resist attacks, such as Klak, Leigun, etc.
===Sentient life===
It was believed, until very recently, that Siveril was devoid of animal life. Then explorers met the natives: the K'Mrent. The K'Mrent are the only non-plant and intelligent species native to the planet. They possess very advanced organic technology, though not to the level of space-worthiness. Despite their technology, they continue to live in tribes.
K'Mrent have a high level of empathy, which allowed them to survive on the world even when the Sector 4 nebula was still present. They utilize special crystals to enhance their empathy. These crystals are, in fact, remnant shards of Leigun who were lost in battle.
