Planet:Inferno

Inferno

Inferno, a fire planet that orbits close to its sun and has an extremely short day/night cycle. Inferno, a planet not even the hardiest of life could life on. At least, so it was thought...

Creatures of Inferno
Inferno, a superheated world to close to it's star to ever be terriformed, was once thought to be completely lifeless. So lifeless, in fact, that the Wental Alliance didn't even bother to send ships there until they thought that Inferno may have useable resources on it. Ah, but what they found when they arrived, that was a miracle. Life. Life like they had never seen before. Mercury based life, life that used Mercury, a toxic substance to most species, as it's main building block. But not only life, but diverse life. Trees, plants, animals, fish living in oceans of lava, herds of deer with fiery manes, packs of wolves with lava for drool. Grass made of glass that waved in the superheated winds, and entire planet based of fire and heat. But that wasn't all. There were ships traveling to and from the planet and it's nearby star. Having been shocked by the idea of life even existing on such a planet, it was a far vaster shock to find intelligent life living there. These ships were entering the star like it was nothing. So the Wental Alliance began assembling a database on the planet. Inferno, the fire life planet.

Empires of Inferno
Inferno is home to the Nova Empire, which evolved on the planet and eventually came to call it their capitol. They still do. Theirs is a massive empire that generally lives inside the upper layers of stars, using their unique existence to easily live in such places. The Nova Empire is vast and old, and can use the energy of stars as a weapon. They have supernatural powers given to them by their nature, and are not known for being overly friendly.
