Difference between revisions of "Lake Eotvos"

Lake Eotvos is a body of water situated in a drainage basin on the outskirts of a colony named Zephyr on the planet [[Selubir]]. Naturally saturated with copper leeched from the earth, the waters of the lake are murky orange, with cloudy with copper-based particulates stirred up by aquatic life within the lake. Though the water contains levels of copper toxic to humans, it supports a thriving local ecosystem, including [[Paddlefish]] and [[Red-Bellied Toads]], and as well as many insects, such as [[:Copper Flitwing]]s, [[Lake Darter]]s, [[Rockhopper]]s and swarms of [[Trepling]]s. Copses of [[xaecoren]] grow here, harvested by the folk of Zephyr as both a source of food and building material.
