Shar

Homeworld of the Njerus race, and capital of the Union of Shar.

Etymology
Commonly called Shar - which is a transliteration of the Njeri word for a Njerus nest full of eggs. This stands in contrast to the common term for outer space - the Hunting Ground.

Geography
A rocky planet covered with large salty oceans and countless small islands and medium-sized landmasses. Most of the landmasses on the planet were created by volcanic activity, and thus tend to occur in strings and groups.

Life
Shar has had indigenous life for at least 2 billion years, ranging from single celled organisms all the way to the space-faring Njerus.
