Pyrech

Once a Miner's Paradise, now a Barren Wasteland...


Where technology meets volcanic materials and intense heat, no one dares try to conquer this planet.

Yet, some have tried to destroy it from afar, but to no avail. The heat is so blistering hot, that just the sheer thought of it would make anyone sweat.


Rival of the watery Stormza, this planet ended its feud and while they still don't see eye to eye, they no longer wish to engage in combat, and instead send resources to one another to showcase their respect.



This planet has only been successfully invaded by one, a former military leader with armor and an army strong enough to survive this fiery surface...


Technology and volcanos reign in the realm of Pyrech, also known as "The Mining Planet."


About the Realm:


Appearance:


Pyrech is a planet with such incredible heat, that no one would be able to survive unless they were either a citizen, or a well trained soldier. No one dares try to enter this blistering heat, and only one outsider has ever been able to achieve this task -- and survive.



The planet is a giant cluster of mining cities, in which the workers would all seek rare metals and other valueable materials to build and otherwise reinforce their defenses and gather food for those who are unable to work for any reason. Scraps of metal lay around the major city of Duranium - in which the ruler of Pyrech lives - and in the middle of a bunch of mining factories, the king's domain sits.


The king's home is a giant volcano, and inside, there are many rooms to venture into, but the main one anyone will ever see is the throne room, in which many broken pieces of armor and magma remain due to the king's fiery temper.



Pyrech is basically a blazing volcano, intended for mining purposes and otherwise inacessible to anyone who can't handle its intense heat, and flooded in pools of lava.



Food and Diet:


Pyrans usually feed off the planets resources due to being made of the same material. Due to this, when a Pyran dies, their bodies become one with the planet, and the planet is able to thrive off those materials.


Those who are very young or elderly, therefore being unable to work, are usually given amounts of magma and coal, since they are unable to fully gain the same amount of food as those who are fit enough to work. Young Pyrans, while rather durable due to their sturdy bodies from birth, are still unable to understand the meanings of work and elderly Pyrans are unable to move, mostly remaining in one place and therefore being unable to find more materials to feed off of. They are basically planted into the floors of their homes, and most of these homes are mostly made out of metal, so they cannot access the living materials they require.



The King, however, has more extravagant meals, including rare gems and metals found. However, he is very picky with what he receives, so while the meal may be appealing to an average Pyran, the King may find it disgusting and throw it aside. if he finds that someone was "hiding" a precious gem or metal from him, he will demand to have it handed over and will then decide the fate of the one "offending" him.

Very rarely will there be a fully in tact gem or mineral that's not of the volcanic planet, but should these be found, the King will demand to know right away.


Citizens:


Pyrans are made of volcanic materials. Depending on their status in the planet, they may have armor covering their face and bodies, or they may not.

They are very durable and hot to the touch upon birth, and while some become well immersed in the mining arts, others tend to instead weld and build new defense mechanisms and armor for their planet. Others are more trained for combat, and those are personally hired by the King.



The King, King Duran, is a very nasty ruler with a temper to match the planet he reigns. Rude and demanding, he won't rest until everything is up to his standards; Even a tiny stone out of place will send him into a rampage, and usually there's more than a tiny stone out of place after he's finished.


However, even Duran had his moment of humility. After the failure of one of his soldiers, he realized that he needed to work harder to ensure that those under his rule knew their jobs and how to do it well. Now, the miners and army both know how to please him -- it's just other things that can drive him into a frenzy.


Military:


The military was at first created by King Duran himself, forged from the volcanic materials and given their own unique pieces of armor.


The first soldier to be created was PX-0 and due to this, he was the self proclaimed leader of the army. However, 0 knew better than to question the king, though he admitted that he only didn't do so because Duran's tantrums were insane and he didn't want to be caught in one of those. He deemed Duran the leader of all simply because "no one could match that fiery temper of his", and otherwise didn't care about his king's powers.


Each soldier had a number, and that number reflected on who was first to be created. Due to being first, PX-0 was given his "name", and the name usually was the number after "PX" - which stood for "Pyre-X", a title Duran came up with and no one dared question for obvious reasons.


Pyre-X remained the army's name for a while, and Duran sent out soldiers to analyze other planets, even if they were filled with vicious storms and otherwise natural occurrances that could kill his own kind. One such planet was Pyrech's rival planet, Stormza. This was when PX-0 perished and the rest of the original army returned, claiming that he died in combat instead of what really happened - that he was arrogant and remained in camp, even though a storm was coming, and it blew him away.

This was when Duran admitted that he knew of 0's arrogant behavior, but didn't want to try changing him. He thought that this behavior would either change by itself or that 0 would be a fitting leader due to this attitude, but was wrong on both accounts. After this, he began to train the army himself, and while others feared him throwing a tantrum upon failure, Duran actually remained most at ease while working with them, as if he was meant to be a military leader instead of their king.


Eventually, Duran did hire someone to train the army, and other soldiers soon came to be, including their prized Dragoon Army, lead by the mighty Cri-Dra. While Cri-Dra wasn't a fully fledged Pyran, they took pride in their work and eventually developed a crush on King Duran, something they never got to admit before catastrophe happened during their last mission...


Current Life:


Pyrech is a barren wasteland, and scraps of their mining tools and armor remained strewed about. After in invasion led by Commander Xac that ultimately ended in Duranium's destruction, the planet is now a place to plan out and otherwise execute devious deeds.


However, Cri-Dra returned and saw the destruction, but also had their own encounter with Xac. They were imprisioned and forced to work under his leadership, until a truce between XEROKING and the Light Kingdom was formed.

While they still swear loyalty to Xac, Cri-Dra honestly wishes to be beside their King, and has since remained a shadow in their new home. They regained their former memories and also know of how Xac was the one that caused the king's downfall, yet they feel another connection as well.



All in all, Pyrech is a place for materials and unknown projects nowadays. While it still remains, it's not been ventured into for a while, and it's uncertain if it ever will be seen again.
