Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameBiancres Rok
Planet typeHot gas giant
The planet is named after the deity Biancres Rok, the bringer of fear.

Biancres Rok's surface appears slightly rippled and is similar in appearance to the Moon's, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years.

Biancres Rok is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light. It may have had xenon oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.

Surrounding Biancres Rok is a vast planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.
