hello and welcome to my passion project! I’m sirius (main: @sirius-astraeus), an artist and writer who is obsessed with space.
Soleria is a main sequence star, about the size of our sun, with 6 planets that orbit it. (IMPORTANT NOTE: no names are set in stone. I suck at naming things and so all of the planet names are mashups of words. Please let me know if something is wrong with my naming or if you have any ideas/suggestions!)
Planet information below the break ✨
Ronel and Ninva are sister planets who orbit both Soleria and each other. Both are terrestrial planets, however host no life. Ronel is a rocky planet with copper deposits. Ninva is slightly smaller than Ronel and is mainly composed of iron. They complete an orbit around Soleria in about 16 earth days. No moons orbit either planet, as Soleria melted any possible satellites.
Xhanu is the ‘second’ planet from Sole. It is bigger than both Ronel and Ninva (about the size of Mars) and significantly heavier. Xhanu is rich in metals and has a thick, gaseous atmosphere composed of sulfur and carbon dioxide. Though Xhanu is still near to Soleria, its orbit takes about 178 earth days. It has two moons, currently unnamed.
Giaina is the ‘earth’ of the Sole System. It is slightly smaller than earth, but has rich oceans and landmasses. Giaina sustains a great deal of life, including humans (more on this later!) and other “dnd” races. Giaina has one moon, Alunei, which is home to Cressida (again, more on her later). Giaina takes 398.3 days to orbit Soleria.
Next is Ursyan, the largest planet in the Sole System. Like Giaina, Ursyan can sustain life, however there are no notable intelligent organisms at the moment. Ursyan is similar to Mars in composition, with red sand and rock. However, Ursyan has oceans of water (along with another element, making it heavy water and have different shades and hues of blue). Ursyan has 12 moons.
Finally, Malein is the planet furthest from Soleria. Not much is known about this planet due to its distance. It is assumed that underneath its dense atmosphere, the planet is composed of rock and ice. Malein is incredibly small, smaller than Ronel but bigger than Ninva. Two red moons circle Malein.
Soleria is approximately 26.9 light years from our Sun. The closest star system to Sole is called Cavinel A.
