General Development

Low-Medium

Primary star of the Solar System and the object to which the entire system is gravitationally bound to, Sol is a G2V main sequence star in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. It has a single very distant companion, the brown dwarf Erebus.

Physical Characteristics

Sol, also known as Sakal in the lingua franca of the Loriset, is a fairly large main sequence star, in the top four percent in mass and radius. It undergoes an eleven-year sunspot cycle and rotates between 25 and 34 days depending on latitude. Sol is known to be a powerful polar flare star, emitting enormous coronal mass ejections every couple hundred years towards the celestial poles.

Its large habitable zone allows it to retain two fully habitable planets, Earth and Theia, and a lack of large nearby companions avoided any major disruption to its disk, allowing a very large planetary system to form around it.

Differences from the Prime Timeline

Sol developed into a flare star in the Alternis timeline, where it remained quiescent in the Prime. There are few other differences.
