ITT: we world build.
We start with the picture posted in the OP. Anons below add something to the world we are building. You may not contradict the anons above you in the thread.
>The Zaron desert covers around 40% of the planets surface
>>44344961
The resulting lack of plant life makes the air too thin for complex life.
>>44344976
The Zaron desert is located on the third planet from the sun, life is abundant on the fourth one.
>>44345005
A radical faction from the 4th planet has spent years raising resources for a colony to be placed in the Zaron desert. The first colonists have just landed.
>>44345005
According to our best telescopes and spectrometers.
>>44345042
They suffocated.
>>44345064
>>44345048
Come on. Don't be a dick.
>>44345080
Speaking of which, the dominant life form on the fourth planet has peculiar anatomy, consisting entirely of a brain and a gigantic penis. They're all dicks. They cannot not be dicks.
>>44345080
? I'm just abiding by the rules. I didn't call you out for trying to change the planet because you fucked up the initial premise.
>>44345064
Only the ones dumb enough to remove their helmets suffocated. Normal people wear their space suits when outside pressurized domes that the colonies are in.
Pic is colony in the middle of Zaron desert.

>The word of the anon above you is law
Jesus, do I really need to write out the unwritten rules of world-building threads?

>>44345159
fuck me, forgot the pic.
>>44345100
Females of the species are giant vaginas with a brain and a uterus.
>>44345159
That's a contradiction. This post is invalid. OP made the rules very clear.
>>44345064
The person who was in charge of the colony plan committed suicide as penance. The third world goes on with it's business.
>>44345198
Further research has revealed that two planets cannot occupy the limited space within a habitable zone. No further colonization attempts will be made, especially as Zaron 3 is in the midst of a global recession.
>>44345175
>>44345183
Technically you never specified that they ALL suffocated, which means that his point can still stand while not contradicting your own. Meanwhile if you could stop trying to shut down a worldbuilding thread by turning said world into a lifeless husk that would be great
>>44345356
Stop posting off topic. If you don't like OP's Rules, go make your own thread.
Zaron 3 is is the midst of a global recession. Go from there.
>>44345356
Technically you never specified that there was more than two colonists.
>>44344961
The other 60% consists of glaciers. The planets is experiencing an Ice Age. The desert is fucking freezing.
It's a good thing OP thought this through so well before posting.
>>44345100
>>44345177
There is another sapient species on Zaron 4. They are all assholes.
>>44345591
shit, forgot to remove my name
The entire planets is controlled via a Boltzmann brain that lives at the planets core. He acts as a god, directing the planets elemental forces as he sees fit.
>>44345064
Well, if we're gonna shut down all attempts at a workable world...
A massive gamma ray burst suddenly ended all life within the entire solar system, leaving behind planets incapable of supporting even the smallest, simplest forms of life.
>>44344961
In times long past, this planet was the home of a mighty, noble race of beings who called themselves the Llerk. Ethically and technologically they were a million years ahead of humankind, for in unlocking the meaning of nature they had conquered even their baser selves, and when in the course of eons they had abolished sickness and insanity, crime and all injustice, they turned, still in high benevolence, upwards towards space. Then, having reached the heights, this all-but-divine race disappeared in a single night, and their impressive cloud-piercing buildings of porcelain and glass and adamantine steel, sunk into the soil of Zaron 4, and nothing was preserved above ground.
They made an immense machine, 8,000 miles of klystron relays, enough power for a whole population of creative geniuses, operated by remote control, operated by the electromagnetic impulses of individual Llerk brains.
That ultimate machine would instantaneously project solid matter to any point on the planet, In any shape or color they might imagine. For *any* purpose. Creation by mere thought.
But like you, the Llerk forgot one deadly danger - their own subconscious hate and lust for destruction. The machine made them manifest. And so those mindless beasts of the subconscious had access to a machine that could never be shut down. The secret devil of every soul on the planet all set free at once to loot and maim. And take revenge, and kill!
>>44345869
Don't be a baby.
>>44345685
The Brain is named Frank, he says that he was a construction worker from Brooklyn before he became the brain of the entire planet. He speaks in a heavy, indecipherable accent.
>>44345685
Ice Elementals controlled by the brain stalk the glaciers, Sand storms rage in the desert. Each are an instrument of his will.
>>44345905
That post is just as valid as any other.
And if you're clever you can still build a workable world without contradicting that event.
>>44346191
That's not one of OP's Rules. Try to read them next time.

>That life was resurrected following the appearance of a bright red star in the night sky. Everyone is a kind of undead
>>44346230
Necromancers are those undead who are able to draw power from the Red star. They use it to bind souls and use them to their own ends.
>>44346230
Nobody really knows that they're actually undead. They just remember being knocked out before waking up with glowing eyes and being unable to reproduce. They go about their daily business as if nothing ever happened
>>44346375
>>44346124
Frank knows though. One of the main reasons he attacks outsiders is because he's freaked out that they're all zombies.
