Planets and Moons


Deluvia IV

  • Classification: Class-M planet (77% water)
  • Population: ≈ 500 million
  • Moons: One moon, Deluvia IVa. Uninhabited.

The major colony in the system, Deluvia IV is renowned as a tropical paradise. This is true to an extent; due to the absence of an axial tilt, most of the population lives near the equator, in the tropical zone. Outside of these areas, the climate and geography become rapidly more inhospitable, and is mostly home to researchers and brave (some would say foolish) pioneers.

In 2396, the colony played host to Starfleet's New Horizons conference.

Every year the Deluvian Regatta takes place, allowing entries from non-locals.

Notable Locations

  • Iyira: The capital city, located underwater. Incorporates the natural underwater caves as shops, bars and restaurants. Parts of the city are fully flooded and used by the Selkie and those with suitable diving equipment, while others maintain a standard oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere through a combination of architecture and forcefields.
  • N'Vea Hospitals: A large medical facility specialising in trauma and rehabilitation, named for a famous Vulcan physician and philosopher.
  • Cochtois Lagoon: A popular resort with beachside and on water villas.
    • The Emerald Reef Hotel: One of the most frequently visited hotels in the Cochtois Lagoon. Mainly because the underwater rooms give a magnificent view on the ocean life.
  • Woncaccia Peak: One of the highest rock walls that gives a fabulous view of the surrounding glaciers and valleys.
