Most High Inquisitor as instructed I have been monitoring probe reports in an attempt to find habitable planets in the {insert subsector/area for search/up to kage} I found this and after watching the video logs have sumerised it for your viewing.
Summary of Report from Probe 01100110011010010110111001100100
The first thing that is noticible is the large amount of water on this world with only one major contienet, the world it self is aproximately terran standered. the worlds majority of life is concentrated to the oceans as the contient is a desert of rock is inhabited only by primitive invetibrates and lichens. The oceans are very shallow seldom being deeper than 500m unless sismic activity is present. A peculiar form of life has evolved to take advantage of this I have dubbed it "Inerlimus", it is acollection of symbiotic plants and annimals living together, they take the form of floating Islands followed by shoals of fish and flocks of birds. This diversity alone makes the world worth colanising but it hides a dark seceret.
An alien race, resembelling an extinct beast from earth called an "otter", lives on the "Inerlimus". I have named them the "Lutra". The probe managed to obtain a blood sample of the "Lutra" and after several tests I was able to reveal the annimals origns. During the age of expansion many ships took animals with them from terra, many of these were geneticly engineered for survival and to aid the setterlers. But these otters were, unfortunatly, misengineered, they were given mind enchancing genes and bred for size, they were the perfect helper for humans living on aquatic worlds.
Until they turned. It is obvious that these otters rebbelled against there rightful masters and destroing them took the world as their own. During the age of strife they regressed to a tribal state and so they remain.
they hunt with poisioned spears and blow darts, poisions so deadly that they killed a medicare servitor examining them from some taken by the probe.
They are a race which poses no threat to the outside imperium as they are planet bound, but any attempet to capture the world could result in aprolonged gorrilla war which would drain recources that could be better used. beacons warning of the danger have been posted around the world.
All i hope is that there onetime masters never left any ships.

I quite like them, but they are still dark having butchered their human masters. I got the Idea from a short story by J.H.Schmitz.
This was my original post in Portent, Kage suggested I bring it here, so I have, my main worry is the location of the planet. I may introduce limited space flight later.
