🌍 Aeris — The Fiery Frontier Position: 2nd planet from Gilden Type: Rocky desert world with a thin, harsh atmosphere Status: Harsh, barren, and virtually uninhabited ________________________________________ 🌎 Overview Aeris is a rugged, arid planet dominated by vast deserts, jagged canyons, and towering rock formations shaped by relentless winds. Located close to Gilden, it endures intense stellar radiation and extreme temperature swings—from scorching days to freezing nights. The environment is so unforgiving that permanent settlements are practically nonexistent, leaving the planet largely untouched and mysterious. ________________________________________ 🌋 Geography & Environment • Terrain: Sweeping red and ochre sand deserts, rocky plateaus, and deep narrow canyons. Impact craters and remnants of ancient volcanic activity scar the surface. • Atmosphere: Thin and tenuous, with low oxygen and high levels of ionized particles from Gilden’s radiation. Unfiltered radiation reaches the surface, making survival without protection impossible. • Climate: Daytime temperatures soar above 70°C (158°F) and plummet below freezing at night. Frequent dust storms can last for days, obscuring the horizon and battering the barren landscape. ________________________________________ 🚫 Population & Habitability • Inhabitants: None.
