• Permissions: N/A
• Links: N/A

PHYSICAL INFORMATION

• Age: Adult
• Force Sensitivity: Semi-Trained Force Sensitive; never became a Padawan
• Species: Pylantian
• Appearance: Mylakhrion is a handsome male Pylantian.

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Name: Mylakhrion Cthylla, aka "Myles"
• Loyalties: Kassogtha Cthylla, other members of his family, friends, the AgriCorps

• Family Members:
  • Kassogtha Cthylla - Mother
  • Oukranos Cthylla - Father
  • Zhar Cthylla - Older Brother
  • Celephaïs Cthylla - Younger Sister
  • Darth Eirie - Paternal Grandfather

COMBAT INFORMATION

• Weapon of Choice: Blasters | Blades | Fists & Feet
• Combat Function: Zhar is a competent fighter with training in the use of both ranged and melee weapons as well as martial arts, though he is somewhat out of practice. His physical fitness, size and strength work to his advantage in that he can hit hard. He also knows how to use a lightsaber, but in his own words "that would be inadvisable".
• Force Abilities (Force Users Only): Having never progressed beyond the level of Jedi Youngling, Zhar's abilities include limited precognition (also known as danger sense), basic telekinesis, and heightened reflexes.

Strengths:

• 
  
• Hunk of Hunks: Male Pylantians are widely considered to be physically attractive. Myles is no different, though this is typically a passive trait and not something he will actively take advantage of.
• Harmonious Existence: Pylantians have not evolved to compete with their own kind for resources. Myles is peaceful and cooperative by nature, and generally works well with others. Having no ego to bruise, it is nearly impossible to offend or provoke him to unnecessary violence.

Weaknesses:

• Noncompetitive: Due to their lack of a competitive drive, Pylantians are mentally ill-suited for the violent conflicts that plague the galaxy. Myles benefits from having been raised within the martial traditions of the Jedi, but he is often at a disadvantage when attacked or confronted, and can find it difficult to navigate tense social situations.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Born on Pylos Satnik, Mylakhrion Cthylla was the last of three children born to the Jedi Knights Oukranos and Kassogtha Cthylla. After his birth his parents brought him back to the Silver Rest on Kashyyyk, where he and his siblings were raised.

As he was born Force Sensitive, it was expected that Zhar would become a Jedi like his parents. However, as he grew older he began to flag behind the other students of the Silver Jedi, struggling to progress beyond basic training. Eventually it was determined that his connection to the Force was weaker than what was initially presumed. The career of a Jedi Knight was no longer a possibility for him.

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Planet Name: Pylos Satnik
• Demonym: Pylantians
• Region: Outer Rim Territories
• System Name: Pylos system
• System Features: [ Here you may list suns, moons, other planets, important asteroid belts, spatial anomalies, or other features of the star system. You may also include orbital position, rotational period (length of day), and orbital period (days in a year) in this section. if you have submitted Astronomical Objects for this system, you may link them here, and if you would like to expand on the system in more detail, you may use that template to do it at your leisure. ]
• Location: Outer Rim; hex southeast of Ziuna
  
  
• Major Imports:
  • Technology (electronics and components)
  • Metal alloys
  • Power crystals
• Major Exports: Thus far, there have been relatively few exportable goods considered valuable to non-Pylantians. Most crops grown there are not considered palatable to offworlders; there are few significant sources of ore; the native wildlife is not exceptional enough to warrant poaching. Perhaps the most noteworthy is the Groth Elixir, a medicinal substance, but it has yet to outpace the more common bacta and bacta alternatives in use throughout the rest of the galaxy.
• Unexploited Resources:
  • Lumber
  • Common ores (iron, zinc, pyrite, gold, silver, etc.)

GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

• Gravity: Standard
• Climate: Temperate
• Primary Terrain: Grassland, Mountains, Oceans, Tundras, Forests
• Atmosphere: Type I

LOCATION INFORMATION

• Capital City:
  • Ry'lyeh: Largest city on the planet. Based roughly on Paris and Vienna. Charming historic cultural center of the Sashkatros.
• Planetary Features: A thoroughly alien landscape full of mushroom towers, oily rivers, volcanic pits and bizarre candylike flora, Pylos Satnik has been described by visitors from offworld as both stunning and repulsive. Even the dirt is different, consisting of layers of colorful sediment formed over millions of years and eroded over millions more. The air is fragrant with the spores of flowers and fungi, many of which smell unpleasant to non-Pylantians (but are absolutely heavenly to the Pylantian senses).
• Major Locations:
  • Na'morha: Second largest city on the planet. Based roughly on Venice and Florence. Associated with the more rural, agricultural Loodd. Beautiful and rustic.
  • Pits of Yuggoth: Located a short distance outside Ry'lyeh, these natural pits are filled with mineral-rich mud used by the Pylantians for ooze baths.
• Force Nexus (Optional): [ If you wish to add a Force nexus (light, neutral, or dark), you are required to justify it through your submission and history. ]
  Intent: [ Provide the reasoning and motive for this force nexus. A request for a force nexus may be denied on this premise alone. ]
  Nexus Name: [ Name of the nexus if applicable. ]
• Nexus Alignment: [ Light, Dark, Neutral, Other (explain). ]
• Size: [ Small (A small location on a world much like a grove or oasis. Ex. Dark Grove), Medium (A moderately sized area, large compounds, lake, etc Ex. Great Temple), Large (A location that spans a large area, a valley, mountain ranges, etc. Ex. Valley of the Jedi). Planetary (Influences everything on the planet. Ex. Byss). ]
• Strength: [ How strong is the Nexus? How much influence does it exert on those near it? Weaker nexus are easier to overlook, while stronger ones are impossible to miss. Stronger Nexus will be more closely scrutinized for balance and fairness during judging. Choose one: Weak (A weak influence on the area and the people on it. A fragile nexus that can potentially be altered by people or events, i.e. a lightside nexus could be corrupted by atrocity or a dark side nexus cleansed by the actions of a mass of Jedi.), Moderate (A moderate influence on the area and the people on it. Could be altered with a great enough event.), Strong (A strong influence on the area and the people on it. Powerful enough to be renewed in the event of a great cataclysm, and unlikely to be altered.) ]
• Accessibility: [ For Small, Medium, or Large Nexus only. Describe logistical information on how easy it is to find/access this location. Is it hidden? Is it isolated from society or is it in the middle of civilization? Is it guarded? Open to the public or private access only? Keep in mind that the Strength of the Nexus above must be reflected in this field. ]
• Effects: [ What sort of effects does this Nexus confer? An aura of fear? Reinvigorating those on the world? Perhaps it induced tricks of the mind, to test the visitors. These effects can be positive, neutral, or negative, and should reflect the nature and history of the Nexus. ]

​

GOVERNMENT & ECONOMY

• Government: Anarchic Confederation
• Affiliation: None
• Wealth: Medium; Pylos Satnik is in the throes of a massive technological and cultural shift, but compared to the rest of the galaxy it is still quite primitive, especially in areas outside of the major cities.
• Stability: Medium; Pylantians are generally a peaceful lot, but that doesn't mean they always agree on things. The planet is a confederation of states, with no overarching world government. This lack of planetary unity can affect its role on the galactic stage.
• Freedom & Oppression: Relaxed and open.

MILITARY & TECHNOLOGY

• Military: Virtually nonexistent, most nations do not having any armed forces. Since the violence of first contact, there have been calls for some sort of defense force to be established for the protection of the planet from extraterrestrial threats. A shield was recently built around the capital city of Ry'lyeh, using imported technology.
• Technology: Galactic Standard (in Ry'lyeh) | Below Galactic Standard (everywhere else)
  • Until fairly recently (on a planetary scale), Pylantian technology had reached the industrial age but was incapable of reaching space let alone traversing interstellar distances. They had recently developed a primitive form of repulsor, which saw limited use. For transportation they relied upon steam engines or airships. Compared to a typical civilisation, the Pylantians had advanced medical and agricultural methods. Military technology remains all-but nonexistent, and their industrial output is rather low.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
[ Include a history of the planet here. Be sure to cover the following information:
How was the planet discovered? How was the planet settled? When was it settled? Why was it settled? What major events specific to the planet helped shape its inhabitants to what they are today? If there is a Nexus, how did it come about and how did it influence the history of the planet?

Remember that these custom planets may be submitted to the map for the community to enjoy. The more background you set down, the more clearly others will be able to understand your view of your creation. ]
