Ravar
- This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
- It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Murada Subsector of Halcyon Sector.
Astrography and Planetology
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- It lies within the Moat Rifts.

System Data
Busu-Ravar System
The primary is Busu, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.04 Sols, a mass of 0.489 Sols, and a diameter of 764,000 km. (I-I) an exotic atmosphere radworld, and (I-II) Ravar, designated the mainworld, have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. (II) a trace atmosphere worldlet, (III) a large gas giant, (IV) a ringed large gas giant, and (V) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Lorix Subsystem
The companion is Lorix, a magenta-coloured L-type brown dwarf lying approximately 1,430 AU from Busu. It is not luminous, it has a mass of 0.062 Sols and a diameter of 60,000 km. (I) a sparse icy planetoid belt forms its outer system.
Mainworld Data
(I-II) Ravar
(I-II) Ravar is designated the mainworld. It orbits Busu at a mean distance of 0.28 AU (41.9 million km), just within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 77 days 9 hours: it is tidally locked to Busu. The axial tilt is 2 degrees. Ravar has a diameter of 3,299 km, a density of 3.72 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.17 G. Tidal stresses generated by the gravitational pull of Busu cause frequent geological activity. Its atmosphere is rated as Vacuum. Approximately 7% of the surface is covered in sheets of water-ice. Mean surface temperature: -34°C.
Mainworld Geography and Topography
Total surface area: 34.2 million km², Land surface area: 31.8 million km², Ice surface area: 2.4 million km². Ravar is a Twilight Zone World. Most of the ice sheets are concentrated on the dark face of the world.
- The world experiences libration, which causes the star to move in the sky and periodically rise and fall above the horizon in the Twilight region.
Native Lifeforms
No world in the Ravar system is known to have native life.
