Deus Mortis isn't molten because of its temperature. Its surface is being chemically and radiologically destroyed by an extraordinarily toxic atmosphere, while intense internal radioactivity keeps its crust unstable.
Why is this a Barren?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.
Classification Criteria:

Contributing Factors
water0
No water - the recipe has no hydrogen and oxygen to form it
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
rotation25
Very fast rotation - perpetual hurricane-force winds, extreme Coriolis effects, hazardous for complex life
Organic Chemistry20
Limited organic chemistry potential
atmosphere50
CO₂ atmosphere with moderate greenhouse effect
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection
