Arath
Arath is the origin world and capital of the Tu'vok.
The world was deliberately turned into a toxic hell by its inhabitants and is now only inhabitable underground; where the dark cities of the Tu'vok can be found.
The rain and fog on the surface are acidic, and as a result almost nothing grows on the surface. There are no animals, only pockmarked rock. However many large caves lead below the surface.
There are dry zones, subterranean swamps, caves reaching all the way to the world's molten core and more.
The various clans of Tu'vok change their environment, not only as a form of clan-wide artistic expression, but also to make an 'exciting' environment for their servants to work in.
These environments are very hostile, which is no problem to the Tu'vok as they can traverse them in custom-made war-constructs, and if they get wounded they simply get a new body. And if some lesser noble gets devoured by the giant Ghost spiders that live in the caves, that is just proof of their inferiority.
The cities are built onto all surfaces of the caverns. The tu'vok live in tall spires with hanging bridges, inside stalactites and hanging domiciles and on the cave walls.
Meanwhile the menials and constructs toil on the cave floors. If the menials need to access the higher layers of society they need to climb through meandering staircases and up long ladders.
Tu'vok buildings also incorporate plenty of living components, from doors that open only for those they know, eyes that keep watch for intruders and vocal cords to sound the alarms.
This is of course horrific to outsiders, but the Tu'vok have long become used to this. They see nothing wrong with growing themselves a house.

Acid Rains
The world of Arath was deliberately made uninhabitable, to force all life on the world to be constrained to the underground and thus within easy reach of the Tu'vok. Their slaves, their poor, outworlders and any wildlife was not allowed to exist outside of the reach of the Tyrant's reach.The rain and fog on the surface are acidic, and as a result almost nothing grows on the surface. There are no animals, only pockmarked rock. However many large caves lead below the surface.
Underground Biomes
Underground this world is a strange ecosystem with widely varied biomes, partially natural and partially engineered by the tu'vok.There are dry zones, subterranean swamps, caves reaching all the way to the world's molten core and more.

Tu'vok Hive Cities
The Tu'vok are masters of Magic and Flesh. Their cities reflect this, being a product of an ancient culture.The cities are built onto all surfaces of the caverns. The tu'vok live in tall spires with hanging bridges, inside stalactites and hanging domiciles and on the cave walls.
