Line 18:

The '''Flatus Atmosphere''' is a dense, volatile, and hilariously unstable gaseous mix prone to spontaneous ignition.

Commonly found on primordial or chaotic worlds of the [[Continuum Universes]], it is as infamous among explorers as it is revered by pyromantic orders.

In local parlance, “breathing Flatus” means *living dangerously.*

== Phenomena ==

Flatus storms are spectacular — kilometer-high combustion pillars ringed by halos of glowing plasma ash.

Atmospheric lenses briefly form during ignition, focusing sunlight into **fire domes** visible from orbit.

Afterward, burnt residues seed clouds with hydrocarbon snow, resetting the chemical balance for the next explosion.

Line 41:

Organic life is effectively impossible without divine shielding.

However, microbial flame symbionts known as “pyroplasts” have been observed in the outer thermosphere, feeding on the energy flux between fire cycles.

Some Continuum cults regard Flatus as the **breath of the First Spark** — the primordial laughter of creation.
