Suggested nameMenuro
Planet typeSmall warm gas planet
It is named after the deity Menuro, the creator of the sea.

There are ongoing investigations assessing the past habitability potential of Menuro, as well as the possibility of extant life. The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of sand.

This arid planet is mostly said to have unreliable and primitive insects that spend their life by hunting a substance called "Wuwyh'isev" if it is available. The Qavupe are closely similar to the Ahoz but with 6 eyes and vary in size from 40 to 80 cm. They can survive temperatures from -10 to 20°C and the acidic environment which is common on this planet.
