Suggested nameSutorix Tetheus
Planet typePlanet
Sutorix Tetheus is the smallest and innermost planet in its solar system. Its orbital period around K2-9 of 18 earth days is the longest of all the planets in its solar system.

It is named after the deity Sutorix Tetheus, the messenger of good fortune.

It may have had oxygen oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

Sutorix Tetheus is the site of Titanic Gravis, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system.
