Suggested nameDirhea'vosde
Planet typeCold gas giant
When viewed from Kalnoe Thrymr, Dirhea'vosde can reach an apparent magnitude of -3, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky. This cold gas giant is named after the deity Dirhea'vosde, the messenger of dreams.

Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 75°K (-198°C) at night to 595°K (322°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

It has the densest atmosphere of the three cold gas giants, consisting mostly of oxygen.

Dirhea'vosde was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.

Dirhea'vosde is the site of Olympus Gravis, the most active volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system. Two of Dirhea'vosde's moons, Betus and Orixhionn Onekal, are are slightly irregularly shaped.

Dirhea'vosde is primarily composed of oxygen with a significant part of its mass being nitrogen, though nitrogen comprises only about a small fraction of the number of molecules. The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries.

Future targets for exploration in the Dirhea'vosde system include the probable ice-covered liquid ocean of its moon Enpenus.

Like a few of the other cold gas giants, Dirhea'vosde has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons, Enpenus being the most recognizable one. Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Dirhea'vosde approached its equinox 9 years ago.
