Bruma was a colder world than Earth with large polar caps and  extensive arctic areas. Surveyed in the 2080's,Bruma was a fairly

hospitable world for colonization. The equators had the warmest temperatures with an average of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, global

average temp. is 50 degrees Fahrenheit, 10 degrees cooler than Earth's average temp. A large part of Bruma's ecology was adapted

for survival in harsh arctic climates. Mostly smaller, fur-covered animals inhabited this world , along with rugged plants that can 

endure the cold. A large, furry rodent-like animal, about 3-5 foot tall when standing, was discovered in the early surveys of Bruma 

that had tool-using capabilities.  Scientists speculate that this species could have developed a civilization if Tau Ceti didn't have such

an extensive asteroid population, as there was numerous areas on the surface of Bruma that bore the evidence of asteroid strikes in

the fairly recent past. They became known as the Capybarans and were actually able to learn our language a few years after the first

colonists had settled there. Many Capybarans found their way onto other settlements because of their jovial, good  nature and helpful

attitude. The Capybarans live close to the polar regions generally away from human settlements, but so far the contact between our

two species has been a positive experience, generally when the Capybarans desire contact.
