END OF BRIEFING

At a Glance

Botchok is one of the most ancient Orion Colonies and the homeworld of the Red Orions. Botchok is the larger planet found in a trojan orbit with Gothei. The natives of Botchok, the Red Orions, refer to their homeworld as Geze. Botchok is a world of dense cloud forests, jungles, and wetland marshes from which jut rocky mesas and outcroppings. Botchok mountain chains abruptly change altitude, often forming sheer cliffs. The Red Orions prefer the lower reaches while the Orions live in the mid-altitudes of the mountainous regions.

Botchok is a tale of three zones. As a planet it has relatively shallow oceans with a lower saline content than Earth. This is because of the amount of freshwater that is working through the hydrosphere is so vast. These shallow oceans can be difficult to to distinguish from marshy, brackish wetlands.
