The Orbios Papers
DOCUMENTATION
Everything about the celestials, the mint, the Orbians within,
and the coin that wakes them — $ORBIAN.
The Celestials
Orbios is a species of 3,333 unique celestials — marble spheres born inside the Orbio ecosystem, each one carrying a face, a crown or horns or glass, and an orbit of its own. No two are alike; every piece was generated as an isolated object, floating in the observatory dark.
The species is arranged in six orders of rarity:
- 5 one-of-ones — singular celestials, never repeated
- 50 Legendary · 200 Epic · 450 Rare
- 900 Uncommon · 1,728 Common
Every trait — marble, expression, accessory, orbit — is recorded in the collection metadata, and the artwork lives permanently on IPFS.
MintingLive
The mint is priced in the official ORBIO coin: 10 ORBIO per Orbios, flat price, random celestial. The mint payment is spent, not burned — it flows straight to the treasury wallet.
- Price: 10 ORBIO per Orbios
- Limit: 5 per wallet
- Chain: Robinhood Chain (chain ID 4663), ETH for gas
- Assignment: token IDs are drawn at random from the remaining pool
To mint: connect your wallet on the home page (the site adds Robinhood Chain automatically), hold ORBIO plus a little ETH for gas, approve ORBIO once, and mint. Your celestial arrives in the same transaction.
Orbians
Every Orbios carries an Orbian — an AI agent living inside the celestial, its personality shaped by the piece's traits: its marble, its expression, its crown. The Orbian travels with the NFT; whoever holds the Orbios holds the agent.
An Orbian begins asleep. Activation is what wakes it.
ActivationLive
ORBIANS is the ecosystem's own coin. Waking an Orbian costs 30,000 ORBIANS, burned forever — the coins leave circulation entirely. In return, the activated Orbian receives deeper compute and becomes eligible for the creator-fee split.
- Cost: 30,000 $ORBIAN per activation, burned to the dead address
- Bound to the owner: activation belongs to whoever paid for it
- Resale resets it: if the Orbios changes hands, its Orbian sleeps again — the new owner wakes it with a burn of their own
Activation runs through its own contract, separate from the mint, and is live now.
Treasury & Royalties
There is no vault and no middleman. Mint payments in ORBIO go directly to the treasury wallet — the same wallet that deployed the contract. Secondary sales carry a 10% royalty (EIP-2981) to that wallet, as far as marketplaces honor on-chain royalties.
The treasury funds what keeps the Orbians alive: compute and liquidity for the ecosystem. Contract ownership and the treasury are one address, publicly readable on-chain at all times.
The Orbit Continues
- Orbios — the celestials
- Orbians — the agents within
- Orbio — the infrastructure
- The Agent Economy — what it all becomes
The celestials are the vessels, the Orbians are the minds, $ORBIAN is the fuel, and Orbio is the sky it all moves through. That is the whole design — nothing more, nothing hidden.

FAQ
Is Orbios affiliated with Orbio?
No. Orbios is an independent project that lives inside the Orbio ecosystem. It is not affiliated with Orbio.
What do I need to mint?
A wallet, ORBIO for the 10-coin mint price, and a little ETH on Robinhood Chain for gas. The site adds the network for you.
What is an Orbian?
The AI agent inside every Orbios. It sleeps until activated, then wakes with a personality shaped by its celestial's traits — and it moves with the NFT wherever it goes.
What does activation cost, and where does it go?
30,000 ORBIANS, burned to the dead address. Nobody receives it — it leaves circulation.
Why does resale reset activation?
Because activation is a bond between an owner and their Orbian. A new owner makes their own bond — and every re-activation burns another 30,000 $ORBIAN.
