STRIHIRA
Technological Range: High-tech modern comforts, atmospheric manipulation, renewable resource (geothermal energy)
Inspo Board: Here
Unique Characteristics: Strihiria is a planet subsumed in near perpetual night thanks to its rather distant sun, causing the area surrounding the singular major colony to become almost impossible to navigate without the proper equipment. Strihira's society enjoys new blood in all forms, making tourism a booming business. The temperature planetside leans low, sitting at a breezy 10°C/50°F. Any heat and energy generated for their city is primarily geothermal.
Oxygen levels are very low planetside and crew members disembarking will receive a helpful breathing apparatus (respirator) to aid in traversing the planet, as well as a heavy-duty torch and appropriate gear should your work have you venturing into the dark.
Strihira's native population has ashen features and a slightly sunken appearance. Get close enough and you might notice thin, barely visible partitions around their mouth. Should you witness a "feeding" at a local establishment, you'll see these folds are able to pull away to reveal (cw: needle-like apparatuses) a siphoning system meant to allow for easy consumption of their staple diet: iron-rich blood. There are other members of this section of the population that have not "upgraded" to these systems, preferring to do things "the old-fashioned way" with their natural teeth. You are just as likely to come across other species here as much as the locals, who seem to revel in being tourists. It's a very healthy mixture of beings.
General Locations: These locations are for flavor only and cannot be investigated during a planetside mini-CYOA.
🩸 Pillow Talk: A lavish love hotel with hundreds of themed rooms (make up your own!) All hotel amenities come with the purchase of a room for the night, including room service, a hot tub and balcony, the largest bed per suite you've laid eyes on. As Eudora crew members, you have been given a complimentary single night stay here.
🩸 The Blood Bank: Tall and spire-like, the Bank is the second-tallest man made structure on the planet. Here you may donate blood for store credits all around the city. You may choose the option of donating blood via a simple siphon-like device that cuffs to your arm or you can ask for it "old-fashioned." Walk-ins accepted! Donate today!
🩸 Book 'Em: A neo-gothic-themed bookshop with physical and e-book products. One of their bestsellers is a highly advertised series entitled The Gloaming - Summaries indicate it is about the torrid love affair between a blood-drinking "bad boy" (Mandi) and a protagonist (Raevahn) who is "not like the other normies." Considered "a frantic joyride!" by intergalactic reviews who laud the seven-book saga!
A local nightclub that acts as a place for all of The Nest’s inhabitants to gather and discuss local goings-on while being able to grab a quick bite to eat. If you're the type to stop in for a drink, then you might want to linger at the bar and listen to the local gossip of both the blood-devouring populace and tourists alike.
THE LIGHTHOUSE:
A tower in the dead center of The Nest's city center, reaching far into the sky and breaching the clouds overhead. Planted in the center of the business district of the city, people are always moving in and out of the revolving doors. Access is not specifically forbidden to the crew of the CSS Eudora, and you may enter the lavish first-floor lobby, but that's where your ticket here seems to stop. Though the front staff are quite chatty.
THE CLIFFS:
Further south towards the outskirts of Strihira's city proper, are wide swaths of gouged-out path in the earth, thousands of meters down, creating a deep, dark series of strangely winding canyons in the ground. A very unique and captivating landmark with its massive size and depth, it's a must see.
