Neptune

**Neptune** (海王星) is a planet type Celestial and a major character appearing in Solar Emissary. They are also stated to appear in Recollections of the Abyss.

## Appearance

Neptune has pale skin with long, somewhat curly blue hair tied into a low ponytail with a yellow bow, with a fringe also covering their eyes. They are wearing a navy blue, sailor-esque military style uniform with 4 diamond shaped golden buttons on the front, along with matching navy blue pants and navy blue heeled shoes. They have white round folded wrists with a navy blue band around them, as well as what appears to be a white turtleneck and yellow collar under their jacket. They are also wearing a white cape with an inner blue gradient pattern that resembles both space and sea.

In older artwork they are seen wearing a very similar designed outfit, though with a purely white cape and 6 round buttons instead, and an exposed neck.

## Personality

Neptune is described as being "a starry-eyed sailor". They love nothing more than the tranquil life of the ocean and the beauty of everything blue. They are very polite and calm, but easily excited by things. They also rarely talk, and hide their face under their fringe, being very shy. Illustrations show them to be generally happy and upbeat, with some pictures showing them with a caring side while around others such as Uranus or Noriko.

## Background

Neptune is stated to be a painter and a sailor. They someday wish to visit Earth's oceans again, implying they may not have visited planet Earth in a long time. They are also said to act as like an younger, yet more responsible sibling to Uranus. Not much else is known about them.

## Relationships

Though not much else is known about their relationship. Pyo has stated *"They spend lot of time drawing and writing together, thinking of things and roleplay games. A lot of fantasy things they enjoy doing together. All kinds of things!"* Uranus is also mentioned to have seen Neptune's eyes.

*Neptune is a personification of the planet Neptune.*

**Neptune** is the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun. In the Solar System, it is the fourth-largest planet by diameter, the third-most-massive planet, and the densest giant planet. Neptune is 17 times the mass of Earth and is slightly more massive than its near-twin Uranus, which is 15 times the mass of Earth. Neptune is denser and physically smaller than Uranus because its greater mass causes more gravitational compression of its atmosphere. Neptune orbits the Sun once every 164.8 years at an average distance of 30.1 AU (4.5 billion km). It is named after the Roman god of the sea and has the astronomical symbol ♆, a stylized version of the god Neptune's trident.

Like Jupiter and Saturn, Neptune's atmosphere is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, along with traces of hydrocarbons and possibly nitrogen, though it contains a higher proportion of "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane. However, similar to Uranus, its interior is primarily composed of ices and rock; Uranus and Neptune are normally considered "ice giants" to emphasize this distinction. Traces of methane in the outermost regions in part account for the planet's blue appearance.
