Vigrith

"This page is a placeholder until more content can be added."Vigrith is the main habitable planet, in orbit around Surtr. The planet's orbit, at semimajor axis 90,000,000 km, is the correct distance to sustain life, but errs on the close side of the circumstellar habitable zone around Surtr. As such the habitable areas are only at the poles, the equator being an uninhabitable desert. The pole areas are covered by largely uninterruped thick jungles marked with the occasional lake. The planet has a great deal of surface water, but the temperatures around the tropics evaporate all water and return it to the poles as huge cumulonimbus clouds. The result is that the poles are almost continuously being rained on, and all natural vegetation is thick dangerous rainforest.

Vigrith's surface at midday is cast in a hue similar to an Earth sunset, with the parts of the sky not taken up by Surtr being a light green. Shadow penumbras are huge for most of the day, with them diminishing relative to the umbra as the sun sets. Hence shadows only become sharp at sunrise and sunset.
