The Solar System Shift
"Stars are giant, luminous spheres of plasma." While there are billions in the Milky Way Galaxy, there are billions of galaxies and thus, an unmeasurable amount of stars in the ever-expanding universe. For those on Earth, they aid people in navigation, became part of the world's religions, and decorate the sky to guide those lost in the dark. For the universe itself, stars provide and absorb the molecules that roam the universe (such as hydrogen and helium). They are born in large, slowly rotating clouds of these molecules with their own gravitational pull, causing the cloud to collapse inward and condense, thus making new stars.

That is how the sun came to be; the gravitational pull of the sun drew the large bodies of rock and dust and gas to revolve around it, just as hundreds of other stars have their own.
However, the cluster of stars that was discovered adjacent to our solar system had a different effect on the world and our own system. While the nebulae that formed the stars had no effect on the sun, the supernovae of the stars caused a shift in the entire gravitational pull of the sun and the planets' alignments.

A supernova occurs when a star's core reaches their Chandrasekhar limit, a certain mass at which the star begins to implode or collapse around its core. The core becomes much hotter than the star itself was, and once the implosion is at its maximum, it bounces off of the core and forms a supernova, leaving behind a neutron star, and in this case, several all in close proximity (all of these stars had been born at the same time) of our sun. The molecules within the stars spread out during their supernovae, and because of the sun's gravitational pull, it drew those molecules closer and with the increased amount of helium and hydrogen present, the sun condensed and used this helium to produce even more hydrogen over time. Hydrogen makes up 75 percent of the universe, whereas helium takes up the other 25 percent. The larger the presence of helium, the longer the lifespan of the stars.

This being said, the sun, with its new and immense supply of helium, became younger,
brighter, smaller, and had a stronger gravitational pull on the planets closest to it. Mercury disintegrated into the sun, as did Venus. Earth became the closest planet to the sun, but thanks to the advances made in technology, the distance between the Earth and the Sun remained the same (I don't feel like making up whatever shit does it, just use your imagination). However, the scientists could not control the shift in the magnetic orientation of the Earth. The axial tilt of the Earth could not be explained for many years,
and so when the sun's change in gravitational pull attracted the Southern Pole of the Earth, the scientists of Earth could do nothing to change the extreme changes that overtook the planet.

In regard to the gas giants, the larger planets were harder to draw closer, but the Young Sun was able to draw Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all in the same ellipse as Jupiter, causing the planets to collide and turn the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars into an asteroid field. Mars grew closer to Earth, appearing bigger in the sky than the moon itself when it passes by. The new conditions of the Earth changed the population and ended what was known as the Solar System Shift.
Meta-Humans
Meta-Humans is the collective term for any humans who changed via mutation and adaptation after the Solar System Shift (SSS for short). There are two types of Meta-Humans in existence: Cryo-Humans, and Ignis-Humans, representing the cold and heat respectively. Explanations and changes for each type of human will be explained, but first: how it initially came to be. As the Earth moved and the climates across the globe changed, countless people died off from the exposure to the extreme heat and the extreme cold. The population at the time was 11 billion people; over the course of the Shift, ten of those eleven were wiped from the Earth, and the remaining billion became divided up based upon the cells of each person's body.
The cells in a person's body react at certain temperatures, the average being 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
People with cells that reacted faster at higher temperatures evolved into the beings that are currently Ignis-Humans, while the people who had cells reacting at lower temperatures became Cryo-Humans.
Ignis-Humans
The Ignis-Humans are not all hot-headed, surprisingly enough, but they are warmer than Norm-Humans to an intense degree, their normal temperatures around 115 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit on average. The intense heat needed for their bodies to perform need-based duties turned their skin a darker shade of color so as to absorb the young sun's intense heat with ease. The skin of Ignis-Humans also developed more melanin and with the combination of the sun's rays with the increased melanin, many developed red, orange, or dark gold skin tones, aside from brown and tan. They do not sweat, they do not overheat, the warmer they get the more enhanced they will feel (i.e. their hearing, sight, smell, etc. will be enhanced slightly, they will be a little faster, a little stronger; the heat is their home and will make them have the advantage).

When in areas with lower temperatures, the opposite effect will occur, and those effects become more severe in cold environments; when the temperature is below 90 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, they are weakened and cannot withstand anything colder than that for much longer, unless they have suitable protection.
Cryo-Humans
Cryo-Humans are simply the opposite of the Ignis-Humans. Their skin lost significant amounts of melanin due to the lack of sun exposure over time and the need for reflecting the light and heat, rather than absorbing it. The Cryo-Humans use different light sources (orbs that you can simply activate and have floating and glowing around, so that the sun doesn't jeopardize the lives of the Cryos). Their skin also became more blue, purple, or green in color as they paled, resembling victims of frostbite from the times long past. Their natural temperatures range from 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit,
and the hottest they can withstand is 80 degrees Fahrenheit, more or less.

As previously stated, the Cryo-Humans are similar to Ignis-Humans where they both excel within their own temperature ranges and closer to the extremes of those temperature ranges. Accommodations are made for the Cryos so that sun exposure is minimized (their skin is very sensitive and could burn under prolonged exposure), and otherwise they live apart from one another.
