Xaevunn is a planet in the Vurbentan Rim.
Located close to the Ryccian border, Xaevunn is a cold planet, unbearable and almost uninhabitable for species like humans, but for the Vurbentans who settled this area, it is less difficult to live here, albeit it is still cold for them. A comparable experience for them is humans in Siberia.
History
Xaevunn was settled by the Vurbentan Dominion, a monarchy ruled by the ancient Lord of Vurbenta. It was a planet purposely settled for the mining of the planet’s abundant lithium and iron reserves, on which it still serves.
Despite being a freezing wasteland for humans, Vurbentans, who can tolerate colder temperatures compared to humans, do not find it that hard to live here. They do not have an important agricultural sector, but the cold plant life that grows in Vurbenta can be farmed here.
Geography
Xaevunn is a cold wasteland. The climate is always freezing here. Vurbentans can live here regardless.
The poles are so cold, humans would near-instantenously die of freezing and Vurbentans would perish in a few hours if not extremely clothed. As such, the poles are a no-go area for human visitors, unless the human is travelling on a vehicle or ship designed to protect them in these areas.
Planetary Behaviour and Characteristics
Xaevunn has a rotation of 100 days, forcing locals to rely either on the Imperial or Vurbentan standards.
Xaevunn has an orbit of 5 years and 3 months, also forcing locals to rely on their preferred Standard.
Xaevunn does not contain any oxygen in its atmosphere, forcing species like humans to wear breathing devices when visiting the planet. However, the Vurbentans are duoanasian creatures, which means they can breathe one of two gases, or both, to make their body function. The atmosphere instead contains the other gas Vurbentans can use, hydrogen, as well as methane, helium, nitrogen, and traces of arsenic. The hydrogen and methane in this planet combine in a compound to make the surface liquid that composes the lakes of this planet. Naturally-occurring water is harvested deep underground.
Even though they can survive with hydrogen alone, some Vurbentans import oxygen, as breathing both gases makes Vurbentans physically stronger and makes them live a bit longer. This is despite knowing it is not being necessarily compulsory for survival, but incur the cost anyway.
Satellites
Xaevunn has no satellites.
