**Arranka** *(Kaʼanese\*: Arghangqa /ˌaɾ.ˈɣaɴ.qa/ arh-GHAHNG-kah)* is the largest planet in the Alpha Pyravii System.

*\*Kaʼanese is the language of the Kaʼanites, the intelligent Na'vi-like species that lives on Kaʼa, her largest moon.*

## Bio

Arranka is friendly and nice. Unlike her boyfriend, she has no elemental powers, but due to the fact that she is the largest planet in her system, she is constantly looking after her fellow planets in the Alpha Pyravii system. Vucubcaquix loves playing pranks on her to annoy her. Arranka basically acts as an elder sister figure to her sub-system's planets.

## Origins

She was the first planet to form in the Alpha Pyravii system, with Vucubcaquix forming soon after. Eventually, as Vucubcaquix fell closer and closer to Feng, she did too, before stopping at about 1.48 AU. There, she pushed Akili into his current orbit and Avan into his current orbit. Due to her large mass, she has the capability to send the entire Alpha Pyravii AB system into chaos, but her near-circular orbit prevents this.

Her rings were formed about 30 million years ago a moon the size of Triton fell into her Roche limit and was torn apart.

She met Phoenix, her boyfriend, about half a million years ago when the Anzû system system passed within 3.4 light years of the Alpha Pyravii system. Now, the Anzû system lies just about 4.37 light years away from the Algo System and about 10.72 light years from the Anzû System.

## Moons

## Trivia

* Her rings are 700 thousand kilometers in diameter, which is wider than the Sun. This also extends past her Roche limit, which is about 420 thousand kilometers from her center. How she is able to keep such a large ring system is unknown, but is likely related to her numerous moons.
	+ Arranka is not the only planet to keep such a large ring system in this system. Lamassu, a gas dwarf orbiting Proxima Pyravii (Alpha Pyravii C) has a ring system about 349 thousand kilometers in diameter. However, due to his much smaller size (2.19 Earth radii), his rings look unusually large around him, similar to J1407b or PDS 110b.
* Her name is based on the Arabic *al-ƹanqaʼ (العنقاء)*, which means "the phoenix". This is also where Phoenix's moon Anqa and Ankaa get their names from.
* She is similar to Polyphemus from *Avatar*, with her 14 major moons, blue and purple colours and large blue storm. However, whilst Polyphemus is about Saturn-sized, Arranka is over twice the size of Jupiter and almost ten times more massive than Jupiter.
	+ She also resembles Mirn from the now-defunct Kerbal Star Systems mod for Kerbal Space Program. In fact, the inspiration for her five largest moons was Mirn's moons! However, Kaʼa, her largest moon, is also somewhat based off Pandora from *Avatar*.
	+ As mentioned in *Avatar*, Polyphemus has two trojan dwarf planets. This is also true of Arranka, which has Pyraxvo (L4) and Ceccan (L5).
* She was originally going to have Avan as one of her moons and have Kaʼa orbit Avan, similar to a potential submoon of Kepler 1625b I. This idea was scrapped due to the instability of this setup and now Avan is an independent planet and Kaʼa now orbits Arranka directly.
* The reason for her unusually low temperature is because her water ice clouds are highly reflective.

* Arranka's left eye is covered by her Great Blue Spot, meaning that the left part of her field of view is blue-tinted by her spot. Her eyebrows, though, are above her clouds, creating the illusion that her Great Blue Spot *is* her left eye. Vucubcaquix often calls her "Cyclops" or "Blue Cyclops" due to this, which Arranka dislikes, but unlike Needle being called "Needy", can tolerate it.
	+ Due to her sheer size, the Great Blue Spot is actually about the size of Uranus!
