Ifrovian

Ifrovian is a fictional planet within the Andromeda Galaxy, first introduced in the science fiction novel "Chronicles of the Stardust Drifters" by Anya Sharma. The planet is characterized by its unusual dual-sun system, which creates distinct diurnal cycles and influences its diverse ecosystems. Ifrovian's atmosphere is rich in nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of a unique noble gas known as Xylium, which is believed to be responsible for the bioluminescent flora that thrives in its temperate regions.

The dominant sentient species on Ifrovian are the Kaelen. They are a silicon-based lifeform, known for their intricate crystalline structures and their ability to communicate through resonant frequencies. The Kaelen society is organized into communal hive-cities, each governed by a council of elders. Their technology is deeply integrated with organic processes, allowing them to manipulate their environment on a molecular level. Historically, the Kaelen have maintained a peaceful and introspective civilization, primarily focused on understanding the cosmic energies that permeate their star system.

Ifrovian's geological makeup includes vast deposits of rare minerals and flowing rivers of liquid methane in its polar regions. The planet experiences significant seismic activity, which the Kaelen have learned to harness for energy. While the Kaelen are the most prominent species, Ifrovian also supports a variety of non-sentient lifeforms, including airborne silicon-based grazers and subterranean energy-absorbing fungi. The planet remains largely unexplored by external galactic powers, with contact limited to a few scientific expeditions.
