Arviel

## Planetary Info

Arviel is the only known planet in the Chryoss system it is a large cold terrestrial world that while habitable, is dangerous due to its extreme arctic weather, dangerous fauna and violent hardened population.

The planet is roughly twice as large as the Earth, yet contains a population (mostly Natogytt) of roughly 100,000+ despite the sparse population of sapients, the people living there are incredibly dangerous due to their violent and isolationist nature nearly the entire population are descendants of criminals who settled the planet centuries earlier. The planet was largely unknown to the wider galaxy until the re-discovery of the Arviel Striders.

The Arviel Striders are a group of species of predatory creatures of varying sizes, these creatures are hardened to the cold weather and while fairly slow, are incredibly powerful and resistant to most weapons and psionic weapons.

The planet had formerly been used to house a secret research and development military base for the Third and Fourth Shrine Republics
