Ragnorok

Main Information
Ragnorok is a hellscape of a nightmare world, even worse than the planet Venus, and is probably the closest you can get to a natural underworld. The planet was named after the war-themed doomsday from norse mythology.

Other Details
Ragnorok appears like darkened minecraft lava from a distance, until you go into it. The pressure on the planet is so intense, that the clouds shroud anything on the planet, which act like a dense fog that never ends. You think magma storms on vortex are bad? Eh, thats the norm here. Lava storms, sulfur storms, acid storms, ash storms, fire storms, and sulfur hurricanes are all too common here in fact.

The planet is popmarked with volcanoes, more volcanoes than any other discovered planet so far. With well over 600 volcanoes in total on the planet, and the planet only being Saturn-sized, the planet has so many volcanoes, that almost no matter where you are, there is a volcano.

No volcanoes? Well too bad, the planet also has fissures; cracks in the planet's crust in which molten rock flows to the surface. In addition, unless your a vortexian that is trained to survive in these conditions, you need a spacesuit to survive here.

The planet's atmosphere is darker than the darkest night, due to the fact it has an atmosphere filled with a serious amount of CO2, vaporized rocks and sulfuric gasses.

The planet is, like its sister planet Ice, within the vicinity of Vortex.

Formation
The planet formed from the same system as Ice in fact, before eventually being ejected by the creation of Windsir. The planet, however, did start acquiring life, but the reason for this was the planet's unusually hot core. The reason for the planet's core being so warm is not known well, but it is possible that a monsterous collision occurred early in it's formation, but there is no way to tell this because the planet's surface is ever changing.

A Life Planet
The planet, with a core so hot, the planet was warmer than it should be, despite being outside of Forty's habitable zone. The planet's warm temperatures allowed for liquid water, and even the development of life. Advanced creatures once thrived on the surface, even though thats hard to believe! Trees dotted the landscape, sea creatures roamed the oceans and type 49s of unknown appearance - but definitely humanoids - were the inhabitants of this planet. Even though the planet was rogue, it's warm core heated the planet and allowed for this to happen. But around 2 million years ago, things went horribly wrong.

A Violent Fate
2 MYA, the core became hotter for an unknown reason, and become incredibly unstable. The core expanded, twice it's original size. The following consequences were heat waves, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes in areas that never recieved that before. Things got worse, as the temperatures starting to climb above boiling - killing life that cannot survive these conditions, and destroying the majority of the planet's oceans. Eventually a series of flood basalt eruptions, hyper eruptions and verneshots occured, killing anything that survived, and caused SO MANY FIRES, which along with the eruptions and fissures, released so much carbon dioxide, causing a biblically extreme runaway greenhouse effect like nothing seen before in the galaxy, which now leads us to to today.

Oh right, and if you see things like a broken bridge on the planet, that was probably created by the now extinct type 49s.

Now
Nothing much happens now. Sad..wait that sounds familiar to another planet...

Armorment

 * 4x planetary railguns

Pros

 * plentiful resources
 * great magnetic field...like really great. OP in fact
 * large
 * RagnorokSurface.png, so blends in with space
 * OK armorment

Cons

 * a deadly hellscape
 * volcanoes are insanely common
 * earthquakes are insanely common
 * toxic atmosphere
 * unstable core
 * crushing atmospheric pressure
 * fissures can open without warning, releasing lava and toxic gasses
 * sinkholes are a common occurrence on the planet
 * it rains deadly substances on the planet, including lava and sulfuric acid
 * not ideal for colonization
 * extremely hot
 * do i really need to name anymore cons?

Fun Facts

 * Do not worry, a ship can go onto this planet.
 * suffered the complete opposite fate of Ice, it's sister planet
 * The life on the planet never got to even warships. Sad aint it?
 * temperatures are above the melting point of rock but due to the atmospheric pressure, most of the planet remains as a solid
 * O'ians were one of the first civilizations to attempt to land on the planet, but you can guess what happened to the ship that tried to do so..
