Diablos

Overview
Diablos is a large terrestrial world with blood red oceans and has moderately higher gravity than earth. It is the homeworld of the Diabloian race and center of the Empire of Diablos.

Planetary Data
In many areas of the planet's surface, Diablos looks like a lush paradise, blooming with flora and fauna with great diversity. However to any non-native species, Diablos is almost impossible to survive on without the aid of technology. The gravity alone is enough to render most non-native life immobile. Diablos follows an elliptical orbit moving closer to its parent star during the summer, in which temperatures skyrocket, sometimes exceeding water's boiling point on especially hot days in desert regions of the planet. Winter snow is an almost unseen phenomenon, with only the highest peaks seeing any snowfall. However life has adapted so well to this environment that it thrives, and even keeps the planet in a more hospitable state. The oceans are colored red because of a microscopic algae that fills much of the upper layers of the ocean. It is theorized that early Diablos was burnt to a crisp each summer, with almost the entire ocean boiling away followed by constant rain storms through the other seasons that would refill the oceans. This process made it almost impossible for life to form since any life would be killed in the boiling seas. However as thousands of years passed some life managed to form and was barely able to survive through the boiling. Over the eons more and more of this extremophile life form managed to survive and adapt, developing a secretion that raised the boiling point of the surrounding water. This kept more of the water liquid through the summer which in turn allowed even more life to survive. Eventually over the eons the algae filled the oceans, preventing the oceans from boiling in the summer and paving the way for more advanced life to form in the oceans.
