L
|
This L-class subset planet has permafrost cover most of the surface. A stable biosphere exists but vegetation is mostly limited to mosses and lichens.
|
|
Continental
|
M
|
The arch-typical Minshara planet, continental or temperate class M planets have great landmasses are separated by oceans, with large climate variations depending on latitude and precipitation.
|
|
Alpine
|
M
|
A Minshara class world, the Alpine-subset class M planet has a mountainous surface. Snow covers the mountaintops and frozen-over lakes dot the valleys. While the planet experiences minimal seasonal variations, the still-liquid water beneath the frozen surface of the lakes is enough to sustain some hardy vegetation."
|
|
Arctic
|
M
|
A Minshara class world, the Arctic-subset is still a class M planet supports a rich ecosystem. Its surface may be frigid, yet the planet experiences seasonal variations and the equatorial band is covered by vegetation.
|
|
Arid
|
M
|
A Minshara class world, the Arid-subset class M planet is a dry, rocky world. The dust-covered terrain consists largely of mesas and canyons. Forests can be found in the more temperate polar regions, but vegetation is otherwise scarce.

M
|
|
|
Savanna
|
M
|
A Minshara class world, the Savannah-subset class M planet has a rocky surface dominated by dry, arid plains. The small hydrosphere allows for brief wet seasons, but aside from a few ubiquitous grasses vegetation is largely concentrated around shallow oases.
|
|
Tropical
|
M
|
A Minshara class world, the Tropical-subset class M planet is a humid, rocky world. Seasons with significant precipitation are interchanged with drier periods. Most landmasses are covered in dense vegetation.
|
|
Ocean
|
O
|
Pelagic planets are ocean worlds - they cover more than 90% of the surface, with only the occasional archipelago breaking the vast stretches of water. Despite the significant hydrosphere and mild temperature, the argon-oxygen atmosphere rarely allows for complex life-form to evolve here.
