Culture
Auridia's culture resembles that of Ancient Greece. Its people love all forms of art, and the planet's many cities and towns are often dotted with beautiful sculptures and murals. Major cities are home to large amphitheaters, and citizens travel from miles around to attend the plays that are performed there.

The architecture is also a reflection of the cultural values on Auridia. Sprawling public squares host numerous shops and vendors, which are often decorated with well-manicured trees and shrubs. Prominent buildings typically feature an open-air design and are supported by towering pillars of marble and granite. Private dwellings are often two or three stories, with a large open balcony on the roof. Many citizens choose to decorate their homes with climbing vines on the walls and gardens around them. The influence of magitech served only to enhance the beauty of Auridian architecture.

The planet is also home to a significant number of scientific and arcane organizations. Unraveling the mysteries of the universe, both mundane and supernatural, is of particular interest to the people of Auridia, and some of the galaxy's most influential spellcrafters and researchers have ties to the universities and laboratories there.
