Important Note / Disclaimer:
The world of Centerra, as presented in this setting, explores the concept of the Force. Within Centerra, the various races and micro cultures/religions use terms like interconnections and celestial energies to refer to the Force. These terms are interchangeable with 'The Force,' and their usage is intended to align with the cultural beliefs and identity of each group. It is important to understand that in Centerra, the Force is often perceived as magical or mystical, similar in thematic nature to the culture and region of the Ewoks. The terms employed in this context serve as a representation of the cultural portrayal and belief in the Force within Centerra.

The world of Centerra, within this setting, is deeply influenced by the Force, and Force anomalies occur frequently. These anomalies are manifestations of the planet's strong connection to 'cosmic energies' or Force Energies. The Stellar Convergence shapes the cultures and beliefs of Centerra, as it highlights the delicate balance between the Force and mortal existence. Please note that the portrayal of these Force-related anomalies is for imaginative purposes within this fictional world.

The Divinarie hold strong religious beliefs in Astralisim, which equates to the concept of the Force being interconnected with all living things.

Their listed abilities are specific to those who are Force sensitive and represent the typical affinities of their race. Even those without strong Force sensitivity possess a unique presence that can be felt by both Force sensitives and non-Force sensitives.

The cultural and religious obsession of most races on this planet revolves around the skies due to the significant impact of Force anomalies on weather and atmospheric balance. Their isolation has led to their unique perceptions of the Force, often likening it to magical concepts. References to cosmic energies and similar terms are synonymous with the Force in their understanding.

1.) Please link the Planet somewhere in the submission. You can put it in the "Links" section.

2.) Image Credit: What is "self input?" - Does that mean that you created this art? If so, just state "Created by Myself".

3.) Communication: What language do they speak? Galactic Basic? Centerran?

4.) Technology Level: What does "Information/Space" mean in terms of Star Wars?

5.) This submission also brings up one of my concerns from the Planet...I keep seeing this "celestial ancestry" but it reads more like God, Angels, and Demons versus being part of the Force. We don't have that. Are you referring to Star Wars Celestials? They are vastly different than the vaguely biblical sense I read here. So..To recap: This is Star Wars. All things must fit into the Star Wars Universe. So, things like "magical celestial powers" don't exist unless it involves the Force in some way. Please, think that over and try to clarify where you're going with it.

If it doesn't read like Star Wars I won't be able to approve it. (Ex. From the Codex Rules: All submissions need to conform to the general idea of Star Wars.)

Tag me when you want me to look again.

Added Disclaimers-
Apologies for any confusion. The theme of the setting revolves around visual elements inspired by angels and daemons, but it is designed to fit cohesively within the Star Wars Universe.

The terminology of "stars," "celestial," and "heavens" heavily influences the mini planet setting, shaping its worldview.
In this setting, the powers exhibited by characters are essentially the Force. However, the perception of the Force is filtered through a lens of mysticism, which molds beliefs and cultures. Each race has its unique understanding and interpretation of how the Force operates, often using different names to refer to the concept.

Characters born into these cultures perceive the Force through their cultural perspective. They hold high regard for force-sensitive individuals from other planets who visit, recognizing their Force powers as aligned with their own cultural and religious values. In many cases, these races consider Force users and sensitives as being closer to their notion of "god."

I hope adding disclaimers that more clearly state these distinctions help.
