Umm... I think you'll just get a big explosion.

Smallest type of star. Anywhere between 0.08 to 0.45 suns in mass. Any less it's a brown dwarf (should I add these?), any more it's a K.

Can I get a re-roll on my stars, then?

You say that like Virtusoisty is not going to do far worse.

Yeah - Virtuosity in the case, and Odium and Ruin from pure Intent, are more likely to destroy things, but Whimsy and Invention seem likely to break everything by accident.

Google says you’d get a big explosion (the debris of which could end up clumping into planets) and a slightly bigger star - which is probably still a red dwarf. So yeah, I’m going to need a lot more stars if I want to make anything significant from scratch. Maybe I can get something from the nebula…

Feel free to grab some of the stellar guts I spew everywhere. Just be aware it will be corrupted with Virtuosity. Not that that's an issue for invention. I think their intents would get along fine.

That’d be good, actually - I think that is what I shall do. For the time being, I suppose I’ll take my red dwarf.

I want a new system first.

 

Ideas, anyone?

Like cool systems?

0.38 Suns in mass. 

I'm feeling like writing a program to automate all this. I might do it later.

For a new star-rolling system.

Mh. Make a list of cool system ideas, since Ado was kinda a nerd. You could also just modify the rolls, and get rid of like 25% of the M class chance and give it too cool unique systems

What about we have it that each class has an equal chance, with a one third chance of a binary system and 3% for trinary.

I then also roll for the age of each star and if it has exploded, it's exploded.

This way I can also throw in brown dwarves.

That seems more fair.

Alright.

Who wants a star system?

I'll stick with Taldain, I suppose.

I’ll take one, though I was satisfied with my random red dwarf. 

Binary System.

A-type star, 1.74 Suns in mass, 2.711 billion years old.

G-type star, 0.95 Suns in mass, 5.441 billion years old. 

 

The A-Type star had become a red giant when it was 2.503 billion years old, but I cannot find anything online that says how long it'll stay as a red giant. When it does explode, it'll be a white dwarf.

 

I have no idea of how I'm going to roll for planets.

Another binary system.

F-Class Star, mass 1.1 Suns, 0.218 billion years old.

Brown Dwarf (a failed star, basically), mass 78 Jupiters or 0.078 Suns, age unimportant. It is probably massive enough for Lithium fusion.

 

I need ideas for how to roll planets.

IDK I would just do one roll for number of planets with modifier based on system type, then a roll for each individual planet to see what type it is. Arrange their orbits in an order that would make sense. If you wanted to make it more complicated, you could add rolls for average density, orbital eccentricity, etc.

Thats cool

and you dont need to roll a planet with me!

I have been carrying Yolen's corpse around!

I dont really know what those are though

just google em lol 

F class is a little bigger and whiter than our sun

Brown dwarfs are like... hot jupiter.

So im in like a Taldain binary thingamajig?

 Kinda. I doubt anything is tidally locked. The brown dwarf probably just goes around the star.

Hmm... so for @Dragonheir's system

A-type star-turned-Red Giant, 1.74 Suns in mass, 2.711 billion years old.

G-type star, 0.95 Suns in mass, 5.441 billion years old. 

I'm going to roll for original planets first, and see which get swallowed by the Red Giant. Hmm... 

I just opened up Artifexian's WorldSmith 5.00 and... it says that the main sequence lifespan of the A-Star is 1.898 billion years. Which means there's a good chance that it's already a white dwarf, but I'm yet to find a calculator that says how long a star stays in the giant phase. However, the Sun will be a Red Giant for about a billion years, and this star has been a giant for 0.802 billion years. So, what do you all think? Should this star be a White Dwarf?
