>Planetary Size
One day your species will look back on its homeworld but whether those memories are fond or painful mean nothing to evolution. Far more relevant is the raw weight of its gravity well. How big is your planet?
>Tiny: Your homeworld is a fifth the size of Terra and has an extremely low gravity. This means initial spaceflight and adjusting to zero-G environments will be trivial for your species but they are certain to be weak and fragile without evolutionary effort.
>Small: Your homeworld is half the size of Terra and has somewhat low gravity. This is a middle-ground between the lighter side of the scale and statistically, most spacefaring species are likely to have evolved under similar circumstances.
>Middle: Your homeworld is roughly the size of Terra and has a gravity that would be tolerable for human life. This is near the upper limit for easy spaceflight and has no major drawbacks.
>Large: Your homeworld is twice the size of Terra and has strong gravity. This makes initial spaceflight vastly more difficult for your species but a higher strength and hardiness to carry their own weight can be expected.
>Huge: Your homeworld is five times the size of Terra and has crushing gravity. Conventional spaceflight is effectively impossible and the sheer pressure they’re used to will make the void a nightmare, and if they want to move with any efficiency, their evolution will have to be very stubborn or creative.
