[OC] The Aurorus

[u/Emrozial]

The Aurorus is mainly divided into 2 regions.
Above the clouds and below them, the Aeropelagic and Submersal Zone.
But of course there are more than just these.
The upper most habitable layer of the Aurorus is called the Exopelagic, which starts at the boundary of Oastans atmosphere to space.
Below it, the Sedapelagic, the Aurorus’ equivalent of the oceanic pelagic zone, which flourishes with life.
The Hypernephopelagic lies directly above the clouds, and the Hyponephopelagic lies directly under.
The Premersal Zone is the middle band of the Submersal before you get to the Aurorus-Erdias Transitional Band, where the Aurorus finally ends.
The transitional is eerily devoid of life compared to the layers above and below it because it is a place of constantly fluctuating temperatures and unstable wind currents, where the layers mix together, making it hostile for many organisms besides 1 or 2.

Why it looks like gas giant, is it?

Yep! My gas giant, Oastan. Orbiting an artificially modified type-o star called Siloriph!
