==Terrain== Some planets have a single dominant terrain type, a particular model that describes all of the land to be found on the planet. Other planets have more than one terrain present. Roll on the first table below to determine how many terrains the planet has, then generate each on the second table. You can divide a planet between different terrains by having more than one landmass with a terrain each, or simply divide a landmass into regions of each terrain. You could even overlap and mix different terrains. Exactly what the terrain will look like will depend on other factors, like the temperate and hydrosphere of the planet. You must decide yourself how the terrain manifests when combined with the other planetary traits. Also note that terrain is not exclusively made up of just one or two things, but to a pilgrim or a tourist or an IG regiment that is being briefed this is what is generally expected. Gas Giants do not roll here as they have one terrain - gas clouds - whether or not something lies in the middle and what that might be is up to GMs discretion, including possibly air floating continents. {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Number of Terrains |- |01-20 |1 |- |21-40 |2 |- |41-60 |3 |- |61-80 |4 |- |81-100 |5 |} {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Terrain Types |- |01-05 |Grassland |- |06-10 |Savannah |- |11-15 |Continual Forest |- |16-20 |Broken Forest |- |21-25 |Hills |- |26-30 |Mountains |- |31-35 |Plateaus |- |36-40 |Dormant Volcanoes |- |41-45 |Active Volcanoes |- |46-50 |Broken Rock |- |51-55 |Flat Rock |- |56-60 |Columns |- |61-65 |Moor |- |66-70 |Barren |- |71-75 |Swamp |- |76-80 |Caves |- |81-85 |Ravines |- |86-90 |Sandy |- |91-95 |Islands |- |96-100 |Cliffs |}
