Kindichi
General Planet Info
Kindichi is mostly water.
It’s known for massive sea creatures - yangoes which act as moving islands.
Trouble is, yangoes periodically dive, so all the life that lives on them must adapt to be suddenly submerged.
There are a few islands - very protected places since their resources are so scarce
The Shoals of Kindichi are the humanoid species here based on the premise, “what if all the people were fish and all those fish where bards”
The Shoals are a highly welcoming people which is a stark contrast to the seemingly endless, very lonely vastness of a planet covered by open oceans
Kindichi’s landscape.

Creatures found on Kindichi
Volcer
A lobster-like predator that hangs from the underside of a yangoe’s sail. It has a sweet smelling sticky lure that it uses to attract and catch prey. Once a beast is trapped in the lure, it stabs downward with its clawed pinschers to attack.
Yangoe
A massive swimming creature with two large sails on its back. The sails are covered in corals and algae. It has a huge mouth filled with baleen.
Wave Lurcher
A fast shark-like predator with nine barbered suckers along its body. It has an elongated nose and a mouth that can shoot outwards to rip off chunks of flesh.
Cikti
Cikti are a domesticated creature and the favored pet of the Shoals of Kindichi - especially the Wrayesi. They resemble a squid-cat hybrid and can come in many shapes, colors, and sizes. They are clever and love playing and performing tricks.
Aturi
A large flying creature that roughly resembles a pterodactyl. It’s purple and blue in color. It has a long finned tail and small vestigial arm under its powerful wings. There’s a patch of blue feathers on the head and back.
Grelut
A large abalone-like creature. It lives under the yangoe’s sail as well - often with a volcer colony right above them. For the most part, greluts are too heavy to worry about a volcer attack. They have a tough shell.
