Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameShihya-pyunya
Planet typeWarm planet
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

This warm planet is named after the deity Shihya-pyunya, the spirit of good fortune.

Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Shihya-pyunya approached its equinox 5 years ago.

Surface entirely dangerous because of the dangerous medieval carnivores, the "Myaro-chu", which survive by seeking smaller pray at night. They are believed to be related to the Kenebahya and have scales and vary in size from 33 to 55 mm. Most Myaro-chu are known to withstand temperatures from 70 to 90°C and stormy weather which is common near the poles.
