Prypiatos[merch 1] is the home planet of Prypiatosian-As and Prypiatosian-Bs.
Landscape[]
The surface of Prypiatos is highly irradiated.[merch 1]
Society[]
The Prypiatosian-Bs are, or were, scavengers that lived in the irradiated ruins of the once beautiful ancestral Prypiatosian society.[merch 1]
History[]
Prypiatos was once the marvel of the Andromeda Galaxy, with mega-cities filling entire continents with hundreds of thousands of glittering structures that truly seemed to scrape the sky, but an atomic war put an end to that. In the aftermath, some of the planet's denizens managed to escape underground to avoid the nuclear fallout. They came to be known as the Prypiatosian-As, and eventually established new subterranean cities of their own, lead-lined for their own protection from the hazardously irradiated world that had once been their home. Others, now known as the Prypiatosian-Bs, stayed above ground, scavenging in the ruins of their once great civilization, where they were mutated into the highly radioactive beings from which P'andor, and subsequently NRG, are descended.[merch 1]
Known Inhabitants[]
- Prypiatosian-As
- Prypiatosian-Bs
Etymology[]
Much like the Prypiatosian-Bs themselves, the name of this planet is derived from Pripyat, the Ukrainian city where the Chernobyl disaster occurred in 1986.
