Geography
Koruku III is an M-class planet with certain O-class features, such as the majority of it's surface consisting of either ocean or other large bodies of water.
In terms of it's geographical layout, Koruku III's surface sports one huge oceanic band that covers approximately 60% of the planets entire surface. The five major continents that make up the planets comparatively small landmass are split up by a number of inland oceans and channels and are themselves subdivided further by several major rivers and lakes.
The atmosphere of Koruku III is exceptionally humid and is subject to frequent rainstorms and flooding. This is also due to the planets relatively high heat, averaging between 37°C to 45°C on most days.
Koruku III experiences increased rainfall and heat during it's summer months and cooler temperatures and clearer skies during the winter. Otherwise though there is little, if any, variation between the planets seasonal rotation.
Koruku III's five major continents (Utali, Tanato, Kormi, Käanta, and Tuuri) share relatively similar biomes in terms of flora and fauna, which typically consist of widespread rainforests and jungles and relatively small animal life.
However, Koruku III's aquatic environments are generally home to considerably larger fauna, including various species of sea serpent, shark, cetaceans, and cephalopods.
