Skagua V4MK

Nestled in the heart of the Zatayni System, within the blazing embrace of its central star, Osiris CG9B, lies Skagua V4MK, a planet that embodies the extremes of the universe. This small, innermost planet, just 29 million kilometers from its searing sun, is a testament to the fury of celestial forces. Once a place of hope and life, it has been transformed into an unforgiving hellscape, a testament to the relentless march of time and cosmic cataclysm.
In the distant past, Skagua V4MK was a lush Terra planet, replete with a stable atmosphere capable of supporting a diverse array of extraterrestrial life forms. However, the relentless tug of Osiris CG9B pulled Skagua dangerously close to the star, pushing it beyond the boundaries of the habitable zone. Over the course of 1.4 million years, the planet's once-thriving biosphere deteriorated into an arid, blackened, and desolate wasteland, dominated by vast oceans of molten lava. The planet officially became uninhabitable, a cautionary tale of nature's relentless forces.
==Overview==
In the annals of galactic classification, Skagua V4MK is now categorized as a Lava planet, its once-verdant landscapes replaced by a fiery abyss. Approximately 78% of the planet's surface is covered in roiling molten lava, leaving a mere 22% of barren terrain available for potential landing zones during space expeditions. The average surface temperature on Skagua V4MK is a blistering 624 degrees Celsius, making it one of the hottest celestial bodies in the cosmos. Chemical elements with low melting points swiftly liquify upon contact with the planet's scorching surface.
To compound the planet's inhospitable conditions, Skagua V4MK's virtually nonexistent atmosphere offers no respite from the relentless solar winds and the onslaught of cosmic radiation. Harsh weather conditions, driven by the planet's volcanic activity, create a constant state of turmoil. Lightning strikes are a common occurrence, with a one-in-six chance of striking the incendiary surface where temperatures can reach a scorching 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Paradoxically, the planet's volcanic eruptions generate a makeshift atmosphere, marked by extreme heat and intense radiation.
Skagua V4MK's aforementioned characteristics are further hard pressed by the fact that it constantly experiences harsh weather; Because to it's heavily volcanic activity on the surface, and not to mention, all lightning strikes have a 1/6 chances of striking inside the planet that has a temperature of 10000 Fahrenheit. Despite the somewhat non existent atmosphere; it had a makeshift atmosphere constantly being created due to volcanic eruptions, blistering heat and intense radiation.
Despite its apparent uninhabitability, remnants of past human activity are scattered across Skagua V4MK's surface. Derelict mining colonies, long abandoned by their Azrean founders, hint at a time when the planet held valuable minerals ripe for exploitation. The Nevians, intrepid spacefarers, have managed to uncover these long-forgotten outposts, shedding light on the planet's industrial past.
==Inhabitants==
Skagua V4MK is not entirely devoid of life, as astonishing as it may seem. The planet's extremophile organisms, tenacious and adapted to the brutal environment, persist against all odds. In the crevices between lava flows, mammalian, reptilian, and insect species eke out an existence, forming a delicate but determined web of life. Among them are the formidable Skahuans, large insectoids with nearly impenetrable exoskeletons that protect them from the planet's fiery fury. These creatures are often used as mounts by the Skagiyans, a unique golem-humanoid hybrid species native to Skagua.
Other intriguing species include the elusive lizard-crows, which soar above the planet's treacherous lava fields, and the resilient blaze-roaches and fire rats, which gnaw on the precious lava crystals that crystallize on the planet's surface.
==Trivia==
===General===
* The exoplanet designation of 666d is highly alluding to Nexonia Prime's Underworld.
* Skagua V4MK, with its stark contrasts and fiery landscapes, is a testament to the inexorable march of time and the unyielding power of celestial forces. It serves as a cautionary tale for explorers and a reminder of the resilience of life, even in the most inhospitable of environments.
*The current distance of the from Osiris CG9B is 29 million kilometers away.
* is sometimes locked in position, and it is only orbiting Osiris CG9B very slowly, as it takes 1678 days to fully complete a full orbit to its home star.
*Due to it's aforementioned physical characteristics above, it had little interest from various planetary agencies, even NSA officials despised it's blistering temperatures and intense radiation on the surface when they attempted to land on the planet's surface.
*Despite being claimed to have a "non existent" atmosphere, it had a very roughly composition of carbon dioxide due to intense volcanic activity in the surface.
*Despite having little valuable minerals, it actually had some good supplies of Nevium, which Nevians retrieve on the planet to manufacture heat shields made from Nevium, or specific Nevium Alloys that offered the best heat resistance compared to most superalloys from various planets.
*The Azreans settled some mining colonies on the planet, when it was previously warmer, due to it's abundance of precious minerals on the surface.
