At a Glance
Velod- or Andreliam- is an ocean moon of a large gas giant. As ocean worlds go, it has incredible depths of more than 250 kilometers, but also tidal marshes and swamped land that is at or just above sea level. Most of the Velodi cities perch on ultra-high megacities on these swampy or coral-ridden outcrops. Other settlements are free-floating cities, flexibly structured to deal with the swells and ebbs of the Velodi oceans. Still others are bathyscaphe colonies- most of which are military or government in nature. Equatorial skyhooks connect megawealthy and military facilities to the planet.
