Idris II is the second planet from the sun of the Idris system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). It has a dense, volatile, high-pressure atmosphere that consists mainly of carbon dioxide. A layer of highly-reflective clouds of sulfuric acid envelops the planet, preventing its…

Kilian XIV

Planets

Kilian XIV is a protoplanet that orbits furthest from the sun of the Kilian system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Because it is a small, frozen, irregularly-shaped rock without an atmosphere, some astronomers have argued that Kilian XIV should not be counted as a planet, and…

Kiel V is a gas giant with prominent rings in the Kiel system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Known for its beauty, its hydrogen and helium atmosphere is banded with shades of white, orange, yellow, reddish-brown, and pale green. Starting in the early 2920s, it became a trend for…

Kiel IV

Planets

Kiel IV is a planet in the Kiel system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). A gas dwarf, it has a rocky core and a thick atmosphere of hydrogen, helium, and methane. The high concentration of methane gives it a striking deep blue color. In 2939, Senator Janna Thurville of Severus…

Ferron II

Planets

Ferron II is a coreless, uninhabited planet in the Ferron system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Second from the system's sun, its relative position makes it only a tenuous candidate for terraforming. Ever since its neighbor Asura (Ferron III) ran dry of resources, many small…

Idris III

Planets

Idris III is an ocean planet in the Idris system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Although its location suggests it would be a good candidate for terraforming, it is covered in oceans of hot, high-density fluid made up of a mix of water with ammonia and other volatiles that make…

Banshee IV

Planets

Banshee IV is an ice giant with a marbled blue and white atmosphere in the Banshee system, United Empire of Earth (UEE), and is the fourth and final planet from the sun. There is a vast gap of empty space between Banshee IV and Lorona (Banshee III). Astrophysicists speculate…

Kilian VIII

Planets

Kilian VIII is a smog planet in the Kilian system, United Empire of Earth (UEE) that appears to be covered in a tropical ocean made of water. However, the liquid of the planet is a mix of hot, high-density, and volatile fluids. Due to the high-pressure atmosphere and the danger…

Asura (Ferron III)

Planets

Asura is the third planet from the sun in the Ferron system in the United Empire of Earth (UEE). Terraformed shortly after the system's discovery in 2460, the early settlers of Asura generated a great deal of wealth from the planet's rich mineral deposits. Asura became one of…

Ellis I

Planets

Ellis I is a protoplanet in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Its scorched surface is dotted with lakes of bubbling lava. Exploration attempts of Ellis I have so far been impossible due to the protoplanet's proximity to the sun. In 2799, Dab Demirjian became the…

Ellis VIII

Planets

Ellis VIII is a planet in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Cold and desolate, the rolling plains of Ellis VIII are coated in thick layers of nitrogen and water ice supplied by a system of active cryovolcanoes. Off-gassing from this ice has produced a thin…

Bruder (Chronos I)
