Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameDako
Planet typeCold planet
In English, Dako is often referred to as the "blue planet" because the oxygen prevalent on its surface gives it a pale blue appearance that is recognizable among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.

When viewed from Hokegyu, Dako 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. The planet is named after the deity Dako, the spirit of love and beauty.

Dako is gravitationally locked with HD 45350 in a 5:4 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

Dako is by far the hottest planet in its solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 609°K (336°C).

Liquid water cannot exist on the surface of Dako due to low atmospheric pressure, which is less than 7 percent of Hokegyu's, except at the highest elevations for limited periods.

Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Dako approached its equinox 6 years ago.

The unfriendly lakes are often crowded with friendly and interesting carnivores called the "Tozo-hiako-po". They feed by eating a substance called "Mutoshu Pya". The Tozo-hiako-po are related to the Ropomyu and have 2 arms and vary in length from 60 to 140 mm. The Tozo-hiako-po are known to thrive at temperatures from -100 to -70°C and also very low gravity which is rare on this planet.
