Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameFoky
Planet typeCold planet
Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).

This dark planet is mostly occupied by unreliable earth-like oceanic life known to feed at the sea by hunting the somewhat smaller "Letule" if they can. They are somewhat related to Kikal-awe and have 11 tentacles and vary in size from 23 to 34 cm. They are able to thrive at temperatures from -70 to -50°C and very low gravity which is rare on this planet.
