Arinzé

Planet Arinze, a habitable terrestrial world located in the Halitta star system along with 12 other planets. Arinze, in terms of size, is roughly 1.56 times larger than Earth with a gravity that is also 1.3 times more than Earth. A single day planet side is about 25 hours and the year lasts 657 days or is equivalent to 1.80 Earth years. Arinze is comprised of 65% water and 45% land with its land being separated into 8 continents and several islands. Its vast oceans are affected by one of its two moons Mhina, with Yakubu being further away and having a minimal tidal effect on the planet.

The planet has an abundance of life in all shapes and sizes. Birds, reptiles, insects, fish, mammals, you name it. There are even a few dozen sentient species, most of them either reptilian or amphibian. Some of these large mammals have bark-like skin, comparable to the skin of an elephant but with the texture of a dragon's scale. These mammals are slow and docile, which they can afford to be with such armor, but their gentle nature causes moss, plants, and other small organisms to grow on their skin. Some individuals look more like walking trees than a member of their species, and it has led to unique micro-ecosystems.

Many of the flora on the planet are exclusive to Arinze as these plants may have passive and active magical abilities that make them highly sought after. Furthermore, the plants on the planet come in many shapes and sizes, varying from single-stemmed flowers to medium bushes and shrubs to large and massive trees. While many species use seeds or forms of pollination to reproduce, others grow into more copies of itself, all connected to one parent. However, a few species on this planet do it a little different. Some of them exude their seeds through their roots, back into the water they normally absorb, allowing the water to carry the seeds further. Some species grow into many seeds from the moment they begin growing as a seed themselves. But perhaps the most important species is the one that grows around other species and uses their viable seeds and modifies them to become seeds of its own. Furthermore, the plants that live in water or underwater are nomadic, which means almost none of them can grow in one place. Instead, most species float and drift with the currents. They let the water carry them to the nutrients. Some species will constantly float the surface, but many of the other species have developed ways to dive when needed. However, the plant species that do exist have conquered every part covered in water. Many of them are highly specialized in surviving a specific depth, which gives every depth a unique eco-system and all the beauty that comes with it.
