Neidus lies improbably close to the red dwarf Kriseori. This allows it to approach habitability, though it is quite frigid. It is tidally locked, with a "hot pole" and a "cold pole." Along the terminator, the temperature averages just above freezing. On the lee side, the temperatures are well below freezing.
Neidus has developed a limited native ecology. Much of it clusters, permanently attached, around geothermal vents. There are, however, more advanced forms of life. Several anthropodal herbivore species wander back and forth across the terminator, as they require nutrients available on both environments for sustenance. More dangerous are the omnivorous predator species that devour the anthropods. Most animal life on Neidus has limited vision, but finely-developed thermal sense. |
