Frostopia

Frostopia is a world of NDC and unlike Prazoa, and Pele, it was once a collection of ice, Hydrogen, and comets that formed a planet in the outer edges of Secunda Major System’s star orbit

History

Frostopia came into existence because of an incident roughly a thousand years ago. An evil force came in and blew all nine planets and turning them into the asteroid fields. While the asteroids fell into place and the gas became a nebula, the water turned into ice, and it too flew away, soon meeting up with other ice chunks, as well as comets. Being pushed by the force caused the ice grouping to stop on the outskirts of the asteroid field as the ice and comets grouped, the gathering gravity forced it into shape forming a core that attracted some asteroids which as they fell caused some hydrogen to form into water because of some air bubbles captured. This new planet grew as fresh ice formed as the rest of the ice joined in and ultimately, the planet became an ice dwarf.

A few asteroids fell, creating more water and ice and because of the distance from the star, the planet kept its cold temperature. Explorers desiring to see what else is in the system discovered the ice dwarf planet Frostopia they discovered and the Mining Guild operated in. When their electronic systems detected a mass at the end of the asteroid field, they had their ships go there and discovered the ice planet just waiting for them. Scientists were already figuring out what had happened to the system, so to find this told them where the water went.

Time was spent exploring the planet, and they saw how hazardous it was, so the new technology was created to build a settlement there, a new kind of Mining could be done there, to collect water. They named the settlement Frostopia. Though the name had been picked by a winner of a planet naming contest.

Planet Information

Environment

In Frostopia, the very air seems to crystallize, enveloping everything in a frozen embrace. From the moment you step outside the confines of the settlement, you're greeted by a landscape that appears to be sculpted from ice and snow, stretching endlessly in all directions. The bitter cold gnaws at your skin, threatening to penetrate even the thickest layers of clothing.

Venturing beyond the safety of the settlement walls is an endeavor fraught with peril. Every breath is a visible testament to the frigid temperatures, a stark reminder of the inhospitable nature of this icy realm. Exposed skin is a luxury few can afford, as the risk of frostbite looms ominously with every passing second.

|Indeed, even the most mundane tasks become monumental challenges in this frozen domain. To step outside without proper cold weather equipment is to court certain disaster. Without insulated clothing, the biting cold would swiftly seep into your bones, rendering movement impossible within minutes.

Yet, despite the unforgiving conditions, life perseveres within the confines of the settlement. Here, insulated structures provide a semblance of warmth and refuge against the relentless cold. Fires crackle merrily in hearths, casting flickering shadows against frosted walls. Every necessity of life, from food to water, must be meticulously guarded against the encroaching chill.

Travel beyond the settlement is a perilous endeavor reserved for the most skilled and well-equipped adventurers. The landscape is a treacherous expanse of ice and snow, where even the slightest misstep can lead to disaster. Slippery surfaces make travel by foot a test of balance and endurance, while unspecialized wheels struggle to gain purchase on the frozen terrain.

In Frostopia, the elements reign supreme, shaping every aspect of life in this frozen world. To survive here is to embrace the cold, to adapt and endure in the face of nature's icy fury.

Hazards

In Frostopia, nature's wrath takes on an awe-inspiring form, with hazards that test the resilience of even the hardiest inhabitants. Among the most fearsome are the frost storms, relentless tempests that sweep across the frozen landscape with chilling ferocity. Born from the clash of cold and warm air masses, these storms unleash a barrage of ice and snow, reducing visibility to near-zero and blanketing the land in a thick shroud of frost.

Blizzards, too, are a common occurrence in Frostopia, unleashing their fury upon the unwary with little warning. These raging snowstorms whip up winds of staggering intensity, hurling icy particles with the force of a thousand needles. Travel becomes all but impossible as the world is swallowed by a swirling maelstrom of white, where even the most seasoned adventurers struggle to find their way.

The planet's jagged mountain peaks rise like frozen sentinels, their craggy forms etched against the stark backdrop of the sky. Here, the air is thin and biting, and every step is a test of endurance against the merciless cold. Yet, amidst the unforgiving heights, hidden treasures await those brave enough to seek them, beckoning with the promise of untold riches or perilous challenges.

Frozen oceans stretch out as far as the eye can see, their icy surfaces a testament to the planet's frigid embrace. Beneath the waves, an alien world lies dormant, teeming with strange and mysterious life adapted to survive in the depths of the icy abyss. Yet, even here, danger lurks in the form of shifting ice floes and treacherous currents, ready to claim the unwary with icy claws.

Lakes, too, dot the landscape of Frostopia, their glassy surfaces frozen solid by the relentless cold. Beneath the ice, hidden depths beckon with the promise of hidden wonders, their secrets veiled by the icy veil above. Yet, venturing onto these frozen expanses is a gamble few are willing to take, for the risk of plunging into the frigid depths below is ever-present.

Amidst the frozen wastes, a new threat emerges in the form of blizzard tornadoes, monstrous cyclones of ice and snow that tear across the planet with terrifying speed. Born from the tumultuous clash of blizzards and tornadoes, these swirling vortexes leave devastation in their wake, carving a path of destruction through the frozen landscape. To face one is to court certain doom, as even the hardiest of shelters offer little protection against their relentless fury.

In Frostopia, hazards abound at every turn, testing the mettle of those who dare to brave its icy embrace. Yet, amidst the chill and the storm, there is a beauty to be found, a majesty that speaks to the resilience of life in the face of nature's fiercest trials.

Giant Frozen Mushroom formations

In the shadow of the settlement, looming like sentinels of a forgotten era, stood colossal formations resembling giant mushrooms. Their towering stalks and expansive caps stretched towards the sky, casting eerie silhouettes against the frozen landscape. But these surreal structures were not the whims of nature; they were monuments to the catastrophic consequences of the foray into weapons testing.

Once, a deafening roar shattered the tranquility of the land, as a colossal explosion tore through the air. A blinding flash illuminated the horizon, heralding the birth of a monstrous mushroom cloud that billowed upwards, swallowing the heavens. The intense heat radiating from the explosion melted the ice that lay beneath the earth's surface, stirring dormant waters from their icy slumber.

As the searing cloud ascended, it greedily pulled the newly liberated water upwards, merging with its swirling mass. And then, as if the planet itself sought retribution for the violence inflicted upon it, a frigid embrace enveloped the cloud. The bitter cold of the frozen world seized the water, encasing it in a crystalline prison of ice.

In the aftermath, the once-vibrant landscape was transformed. Where once there was barren ice, now stood the haunting visage of colossal mushrooms, their frozen forms eternalized by the fusion of fire and ice. These towering monoliths served as a solemn reminder.

Drill Sites

Near the heart of the settlement lay a network of drill sites, each a testament to New Dusk Conclave ingenuity and resilience in the face of adversity. Here, amidst the desolate expanse of ice and snow, the settlers had carved a lifeline into the frozen earth, extracting the precious resources essential for their survival.

With a steady hum, the drills bore into the thick ice, their metallic teeth gnawing away at the frozen facade with relentless determination. Each rotation brought forth a shower of icy fragments, scattering like crystalline confetti in the frigid air. The rhythmic percussion of the machinery echoed across the barren landscape, a symphony of progress in an otherwise silent world.

As the drills delved deeper into the icy depths, they unearthed the lifeblood of the settlement: pristine water locked in a frozen embrace. With painstaking precision, the settlers harvested this liquid treasure, channeling it through a labyrinth of pipes and conduits to quench the thirst of their burgeoning community.

But it was not only water that the drills yielded; they also unearthed vast reserves of ice, glistening like diamonds in the pale sunlight. This frozen bounty served not only as a source of hydration but also as a crucial resource for sustenance and industry. Meticulously collected and stored, the ice served as a tangible reminder of the settlers' symbiotic relationship with the unforgiving environment that surrounded them.

In the shadow of the drill sites, the settlers toiled tirelessly, their efforts a testament to their unyielding determination to carve out a new existence in this harsh and unforgiving land. And though the ice may stretch on endlessly, and the challenges may seem insurmountable, the settlers found solace in the knowledge that within their grasp lay the key to survival: water, drawn forth from the frozen heart of their adopted home.

Settlement

Deep within the icy expanse of Frostopia, where the bitter cold bites at every breath, lies the settlement , a beacon of warmth and life amidst the frozen desolation. Nestled snugly within an expansive cavern of ancient rock formations, the settlement's architecture blends seamlessly with the natural contours of its surroundings. Here, the inhabitants have found refuge from the relentless chill, their home guarded by the towering sentinels of stone that rise majestically above them.1)

But it's not just the rugged embrace of the cavern that shelters them. Surrounding the settlement, like silent guardians, stand the Giant Frozen Mushrooms, their colossal caps reaching towards the heavens. These magnificent fungi, frozen in time, form a protective barrier around the settlement, their sturdy stalks and thick mycelium providing an additional layer of defense against the harsh elements that rage beyond.

Within this fortified enclave, life flourishes under the gentle glow of the Environmental bubble. Spanning the entirety of the settlement, this shimmering dome is a marvel of technology and ingenuity, creating a microcosm of temperate climate within the icy heart of Frostopia. Inside, the air is crisp and invigorating, yet pleasantly warm, and the soft hum of machinery blends harmoniously with the natural sounds of life.

The Environmental bubble not only regulates temperature but also filters the air, ensuring purity and freshness for all who dwell within. Its translucent walls shimmer with ethereal light, casting ever-changing patterns across the landscape outside, a constant reminder of the fragile balance between nature and technology.

But beyond its practical functions, the bubble serves as a symbol of resilience and unity for the inhabitants of Frostopia. It is a testament to their resourcefulness and determination, a beacon of hope in an otherwise unforgiving world. Within its embrace, they have forged a community bound by shared purpose and mutual respect, standing together against the icy onslaught that surrounds them.

And so, nestled within the protective embrace of rock and mushroom, shielded by the comforting warmth of the Environmental bubble, the settlement of Frostopia stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of humanity, thriving against all odds in the frozen wilderness of an alien world.
