Neyarvus

A Gas Giant Planet like few others

Neyarvus is an enormous gas giant planet born to a doomed star in a young and crowded galaxy deep in the middle of the known universe. This galaxy, named by these inhabitants as Diathatos, is a mere 3 million light years away from Messier 87, and together they form the core of a closely compacted structure of about 2,000 galaxies known as the Virgo supercluster. A spectacular view of crowded stars for a spectacularly big planet.
Colossol, enormous, and substantial, Neyarvus dwarfs all other planets and dominates his space. But there are just too many stars too close too each other, in only a billion years, two stars get too close until gravitational waves launch Neyarvus, the monster planet, on a trajectory towards the outer rim of the galaxy.

Neyarvus the Defiler

Neyarvus was born the greatest of the Anga, beings of the sky. He was the greatest sight to be seen ever in the ever expanding chaos of his crowded sector, he was so massive that he lorded over every other sky being there. Neyarvus was cruel, and punished all the other Anga merely because they were not as strong. Neyarvus would sieze all things for himself, take what he wanted, rule as he willed. It was out of fear and loathing that Neyarvus was revered as the God of Air. It was not long until all the other Anga united against Neyarvus and he fled into the outer darkness away from all his former glory.

The Rouge Planet

Neyarvus is condemned to wander the cold depths of space. Neyarvus becomes covered in ice as it wanders empty space, carelessly orbiting the center of the galaxy Diathatos until the birth of the blue star Peotor. As large as Neyarvus is and as massive and crowded as this part of the galaxy is, the vast deep dark emptiness of space dwarfs the planet and nothing surrounds his immediate area and nothing is affected by his massive gravitational field for many thousands of years. After wandering into a huge cloud of ice drifting in the emptiness, internally Neyarvus continues to spin but externally becomes covered in huge sheets of water ice. This both protects the gas giant and increases its mass as it wanders about empty space.

Neyarvus wanders the emptiness

The once great ruler of all the sky beings wanders the empty loneliness. Bitter thoughts of revenge fill his head and he begins to search the emptiness with purpose. He will try to find like minded beings willing to align with him and he will lead a rebellion and go back and sieze everything. But the emptiness is very empty, and his dreams of finding allies and leading a rebellion of conquest remain dreams, because he finds no one. He is alone.

A Pair of Wandering Planets

Deep in the emptiness between stars, Neyarvus the gas giant happens upon the wandering rocky planet Lophator and locks her in his great gravitational field. All this happens at the cost of altering both of the planets trajectories and in only a few hundred thousand years they both get caught in the gravitational influence of a new born giant blue star named Peotor. The two planets become trapped in the goldilocks zone by the gravitational attraction of the new born giant blue star. Lophator becomes face locked to Neyarvus and takes 36 hours to orbit around the gas giant like a moon. Externally, the gas giant begins to thaw and spin, which causes it to heat up and increase its internal spin until the whole planet seems to come alive and generates a magnetic field of unimaginable proportions. This not only scatters existing planets by pushing and shoving with Neyarvus' monstrous magnetic field, but also this field traps moons in their orbits. The increase in heat caused by the giant blue star Peotor causes Neyarvus and Lophator to thaw and heat up. Neyarvus is once more a massive ball of spinning and heated hydrogen and helium. The increase of heat melts off huge sheets of ice that, not only form an acretion disk around the gas giant, but also bombard and bathe the nearby rock planet of Lophator with tons of ice water forming an ocean of immense depth and size on that planet. The water is at the perfect temperature to stay in liquid form. On the side of Lophator that faces away from Neyarvus, no ocean forms but only lakes and rivers gather in the ancient, now exposed ocean beds. But a deep ocean of water covers the other half of the planet Lophator that faces and is locked to Neyarvus. Lophator spins around Neyarvus like a moon, but in a very ecentric ecliptical orbit that brings it to both the extremes of the goldilocks zone, which causes seasons. The acretion disk hardens into crystal ice and forms bands of rings in spectacular formation. Beautiful are the ice crystals rings that form about the planet Neyarvus. Adorned with thousands of beautiful ringlets, Neyarvus is one of those unique among the planets to have ice rings. Neyarvus is not the only planet to have rings made of chunks of ice and rock but few planatary ring systems are as spectacular or as complicated as Neyarvus'.

Neyarvus captures Lophator

Neyarvus wanders the emptiness full of despair and loneliness. Distraught and nearly at his wits end he stays still in the darkness and waits for the bitter end. There is no end and he just exists in the darkness. After drifting about in this fashion for some time, he sees something move far, far away from him and hope kindles inside him once again. He hurries to catch up to what it was he sees. However great and however strong he deems himself, It seems an eternity until he finally catches up enough to recognize that it is another wandering god. This other god is female, young, full of young, and lost in the darkness. Neyarvus has stumbled upon Lophator, one of the Nchi, beings of the earth, the ones that cause matter to exist. Lophator fled from the terrible wars of the earth beings and got lost in the great outer darkness. Lophator sees Neyarvus and flees even faster from him in fear and loathing. Neyarvus uses all his might in pursuit of the young goddess. Neyarvus catches up to Lophator and grips her tight. Once he has her he will never let go. Lophator sturggles but can not break away, but she never stops struggling even as Neyarvus takes her away to the hidden realm of Corececor, the light in the darkness named Peotor. Most will say that Lophator was not wholy unwilling, that Neyarvus treated her nice and swayed her with kind words. But others point out that Lophator had been wandering the empty wastes for at least as long as Neyarvus and was nearly mad with loneliness, desperate with despair, and as glad to another being as Neyarvus was after that eternally long loneliness. Neyarvus' brash behavior and harsh manner gave the gentle Lophator little to no choice to go with him.

Protected by a Magnetic Field

Neyarvus creates such an immense gravitational field that anything inside of it is effectively protected from the enormous amounts of radiation that will destroy everything and whose source is the blue giant star Peotor. The interior of the magnetic field collects high energy plasma and glows much like a neon bulb in a giant torus or revolution around Neyarvus. Bits of plasma break away and drift towards the orbit of Lophator where they collide with Lophator's own magnetic field in a spectacular light show high in the upper atmosphere of Lophator.
Deep under Neyarvus’ clouds is a huge ocean of liquid metallic hydrogen, usually a gas, but on Neyarvus, the pressure is so great inside its atmosphere that the gas becomes liquid. As Neyarvus spins, the swirling, liquid metal ocean creates the strongest magnetic field in the Peotor system. At the tops of the clouds (tens of thousands of miles above where the field is created), Neyarvus’ magnetic field is 20 times stronger than the magnetic field on Lophator. The magnetosphere of Neyarvus is the cavity created in the solar wind by the planet's magnetic field. Extending up to 4,349,598 miles in Peotor's direction and over 400 million miles in the opposite direction, Neyarvus' magnetosphere is the largest and most powerful of any planetary magnetosphere in the Peotor System, and by volume, large enough to enclose a Lophator sized planet with a powerful magnectic shield of its own. Wider and flatter than Lophator's magnetosphere, Neyarvus' is stronger by an order of magnitude, while its magnetic moment is roughly 18,000 times larger.

The Hidden Realm

Neyarvus sweeps Lophator away to the hidden realm of Peotor. There he encloses her in his protective shield. It is both a curse and a blessing, for while protected by Neyarvus, nothing can harm Lophator. However, Lophator has been full of life since her journey began eons ago and she longs to give birth to the many lives inside her. But Neyarvus is so close and so heavy that she is unable to bear any children at all. They are trapped, and cannot be born, and their lives are suspended inside their glowing mother. The unhappy, unborn children of Lophator cry out loud and thier cries go out and up and echo in the darkness until they finally reach the realm of gods. Quickly the gods send out the promised ones, the Anga of spirit, flesh, and water. Crasp, Yeesha, and Ponus leave the blessed realms and cross the empty darkness under the timeless halls and race to find Lophator trapped underneath Neyarvus. It is a long, far away place that they race too, even for gods, and things will remain the same on Lophator until they arrive.

Orbit

Neyarvus has enough of an eliptical orbit that it takes the planet to the extreme edges of the habitable zone around Peotor. Each change in mile brings about a temperature change (in Kelvin) of 5.73 x 10^-7 %. At 86,000,000 miles that comes to almost a 50℉ difference between summer and winter. That is enough to account for the change of seasons.
Neyarvus' average orbital velocity around Peotor is an amazing speed of 227,862 mph, speeding up as it gets closer to Peotor and slowing down at its farthest points.
The inner planets would never be visible to the people of Lophator, for they would always be out during daytime. Only wizards and other star gazers would even know of them and their names. Neyarvus was so massive that only the giant blue star could affect him in any way, so the inner planets often we're tugged this way and that as Neyarvus zinged along it's eccentric eliptical orbit.

From above, it is easy to see the orbital change in distance.

The Three Moons

It is no accident that Lophator has three moons. For, as the legend tells us, it was Crasp, Yeesha, and Ponus, that pulled Lophator from under Neyarvus. She settled down with her back to Neyarvus so that none of her children would ever have to see him, and there, in the depths of time, she gave birth to all the life on Lophator.
Then come the many legends. Begining with the legend of Il'Waarl Corececor, who opens a gate in the fey world that leads to the whirlpool gate on Lophator. All the fey of the Nchi now have access to the awe inspiring realm of Lophator. Legends speak of how the fey divide into two groups, the beautiful and the ugly. The ugly fight amoung themselves, and the god Ka, angered at being relagated as a god to the ugly fey, begins to kill other gods. Among the gods of the ugly fey, only two remain: Ka, the god of war, and Queses, the god of chaos. Legend goes on how Queses and Ka use the body parts of their fallen enemies to shape and bring about the goblinoids and orcs, but we know they came through the gate, we know that once Queses siezed control of the goblinoids he made constant war on all worlds. The legend of the four fleeing gods ties the gods Tasyn, Vaxy, Tura, and Dhotus to winter, spring, fall, and summer. But we know the seasons on Lophator are caused by Neyarvus taking thier orbit to the extreme edges of the goldilocks zone. The legend of Ogen and Zaslo resisting the armies of Quesis tell of the birth of plants and animals, and how they are almost overwhelmed until they are delivered by Oltdun. And the blood of his sacrifice, as it drips upon the ground, forms the first humans. But we know, humans came through both the first and the second gate.
