"Orange...Orange, reds and dark yellows everywhere, not to mention the terrain, heck was it beautiful, it seems that being a colonist for this world is a privelidge, its lifeforms so alien, some even emitting their own light, we sure could use those as natural lighting for night!"*

-Diary Entry from a Colonist upon touching down on Sellius, describing the landscape

(T)"Sellius... would you look at that! damn, that's a lot of ice, I never thought the Inner system would be so interesting, I wouldn't mind staying here if im being honest, its just a bit hotter than most worlds. Ivana you seeing this? You are awfully quiet...shes likely in shock from seeing such a sight in person....Ahem....Crap! Enemy vessel jumped in, target is a cruiser class, illegal weaponary detected, crap its corrosive chemical rounds! engage with caution! I repeat engage with caution!"

(I)" (Gasps) Pirate vessel?! huh? my radar shows-....Taros you dipcrap....couldnt I just be in awe in peace?! seriously its not every day you see such worlds in person...you know?"

(T)"Hey, im just keeping you on guard here. You never know when such scenarios can actually occur. Nonetheless, we were told to dock at Shipyard 8C, there we can have our ships repaired and take a relief break at a relief hotel. Defending that merchant was far more difficult than I anticipated, thanks for sniping those cruisers back there, we likely wouldve been in a worse condition than now"

(I)"You are most welcome....but I'll get you back for nearly giving me a heart attack while I was just enjoying the view..."

(T)"I would be curious as to what you come up with..."

(R)"If I had a gram of metal for everytime you two argued at eachother like an old married couple...I wouldve been able to build myself a Cruiser by now"

(I)"We are not a couple anyway, commencing docking procedures"

(T)"Im proudly taken by the love of my life thank you very much."

(R)"Well, I suppose thats fair, now, time to see Sellius on the surface...Im going for a short swim for sure! Please dont bicker..."

Sellius is a large world with plenty of land for development, explaining why it was very sought after by the commonwealth and colonized during the early 2120s. This world is also very rich in uranium hence contributing to it being an energy hub, since reactors do cover some regions and often are used to charge high storage batteries, utilised in many essential systems within ships, homes, buildings, mines, aircraft, etc. Sellius also sports a considerably large amount of Xenobiologists within the Northern Canadian Circle (Named after ancient Canada due to its affiliation with orange and red leaves during the Autumn season), hence most of it being uninhabited as its considered a Nature and science reserve. Sellius is one of the few commonwealth worlds which does host a unique organic architecture, due to architects taking a liking to the surrounding plantlife and other plantlife on other worlds, contributing to the planets tourism, which is quite a key source of income, due to Sellius hosting breathtaking views from its flat, albeit high, mountain ranges, its difficult to traverse terrain, essentially giving travellers a sense of challenge (some people do just traverse the mountanous terrain here for excercise, also earning Sellius the "Gym planet" or "Leg Day planet"), making the views feel more earned to some. Its high icy summits are home to some of rather large cities (in lore only, if I made them my phone wouldve cooked my hands), where some of the latest cold resistance technology is tested in order to see what degree of cold they can take (this degree of cold ofcourse, being low).

Sellius Itself

Having formed within the inner regions of the Strellius system, Sellius has managed to nab lots of metals and rare materials, explaining its rich composition, as for its uranium, scientists theorise that it may have likely been from several large asteroids from the outer regions (if not extrasolar asteroids) being slingshot inward on a crash course to sellius, judging by shear amount, some theorise that this asteroid cluster couldve once been part of the same forming world, likely chipped off by high velocity impacts. Sellius likely got its rings from a far orbiting moon, which was captured within the formation era, it is theorised that a 2nd moon was captured in orbit by Sellius too, this time, orbiting opposite its neighbouring moon. By the late formation era, these 2 moons had collided, ultimately giving it its rings, these 2 moons seemed to have been native to the Strellius system judging by composition.
