'''Eayn'''<ref>''[[Bestiarum]], [http://imagewtf.com/649/free-image-hosting/ Pg. 8-9]''</ref> is the [[Jackal]] homeworld and is a satellite orbiting the planet [[Chu'ot]]. The gravity is about 0.875 G's, making the inhabitants lighter on Eayn than on [[Earth]]. This is surprising, considering how swiftly Jackals can move on Earth. Eayn's atmosphere is composed of [[oxygen]], [[nitrogen]], and [[Carbon Dioxide]] (Rather similar to Earth). It contains a surface temperature ranging from -18°C to 45°C (-0.4F to 113F). It could be supposed that the "planet" is extremely similar to Earth. | '''Eayn'''<ref>''[[Bestiarum]], [http://imagewtf.com/649/free-image-hosting/ Pg. 8-9]''</ref> is the [[Jackal]] homeworld and is a satellite orbiting the planet [[Chu'ot]].

The planet lies within the inner region of the system's massive asteroid belt. The world's surface was characterized by a single large ocean, sparse volcanic activity and an almost total lack of glacification. About one third of the Kig-yar population in the Y'Deio system called the satellite their home. The remaining Jackals chose to set up colonies within the asteroid belt even before their discovery by the [[Covenant]] which helped defend their system due to the difficulties of traveling between asteroids with rather large ships. | The planet lies within the inner region of the system's massive asteroid belt.
