Draculous
Draculous is the Ptevos home world. It is very similar in climate to Earth with polar ice caps, and a majority of its surface covered in water. The atmosphere is rich in oxygen and able to support plant and animal life. The Ptevos are the dominant species and rule the planet. They have a long history of being governed by a monarchy, presently ruled by Rex Saasha, a vicious and ruthless leader. Upon taking up the crown, Saasha Akuma focused the Ptevos resources on growing their dominance in the galaxy by invading other worlds, enslaving their inhabitants, and stealing their resources.
Author’s Note:
As I was completing Brandon Sparks and the Hidden Sun I made the decision that Brandon would need to visit the Ptevos home world to continue his quest. The idea was to make the home of his enemy sound as scary as possible and then let the audience see that the planet itself is not very scary, and is actually very similar to Earth. What is scary is the name of the planet, inspired by Dracula, and the creatures that inhabit it. The technology the Ptevos possess, along with the horrible practices of Rex Saasha make Draculous a very scary place.

A Ptevos weapon developed under the strict supervision of General Zarafat, and named for his deceased son, Yason. When fired, it emits a thick yellow beam which spreads across a wide distance.

A note about the different species – C.K.
I have previously mentioned on this web portal that as a retired man, one of my passions is filling in the gaps in the Brandon Sparks story (as well as correcting some of the errors made by Mr. Fuld). One of the best ways I have found to

One can reasonably assume that in a fantasy series like this, a character leaving the insular experience of his own room and venturing into the expanse of space will encounter several alien species along the way, but that was not the original
