Discovered by the galactic community over two thousand years ago, Ansion is the only planet in its star system where sentient life managed to evolve. Ansionians are a humanoid species, their defining attributes consisting of pale-yellow skin, large red eyes, slim stature, and short, stubby tails. Also native to the planet were the Gwurran, a shorter, furry subspecies of Ansionian. Unlike their taller counterparts, Gwurran typically had brown or grey fur and longer tails averaging close to a meter in length. Individuals of both species had unique patterns in their hair, or in the case of the Gwurran, fur.

With a temperate climate, the topography of Ansion is relatively unremarkable. A single large ocean in the center of the planet is home to several notable species of aquatic life. One example is the gairk, a large predator known for hunting in packs by opening their large mouths together to suck in prey. The north and south coastlines give way to sandy deserts. Freezing air from the western glaciers warmed by the seawater produce strong gusts of wind that sweep across the sand dunes. Sightseers frequently stick to the forest and jungles of the planet, bordering the east coastline. Walks along the woodlands in the warm Ansion sunlight are often accompanied by sightings of the native fauna, such as the large herbivores the suubatar and sadain.

Ansion has experienced consistent growth and development thanks to its status as the most hospitable planet in the system. While the planet’s economy has prospered due to the business interest of galactic corporations, the increasing number of offworlders immigrating to the planet has caused resentment among the native Ansionian and Gwurran. While relations have remained cordial, recent border disputes have garnered attention by more than one governing body.
