At a Glance
Cerberus is a hard land of gray and brown stone with hardy scrubs and grasses and silty marshlands. It was never an easy settle. Orbiting a red star in a trinary star system, Cerberus never has a true night- with two nearby stars, even nightfall has a faint warm light. Neither is daylight particularly bright, similar to twilight levels on Earth. The planet has an extremely slow period of rotation making day and night more than 50 hours long each. As a result, Cerberans live lives, when indoors, and manufacture their own concepts of day and night aligned to Earth norms.
