OK, please bear with me, but this is an attempt by me to create a sphere for play in a 3.5 ed SpellJammer that I have never done much with. But right now there are no game mechanics or crunch and entirely description or fluff Tropisphere Quadruple suns travel around an Earth-like bowl shaped world in ecclectic orbits. This orbit is actually caused by a pair of colossal octopi that are juggling the suns between them while the centerpiece is held aloft in the hands of a titanic tikki statue. All of this makes for year round tropical conditions on Planet Tikki in the Tropisphere. It's a place in the Phlogiston that is an open secret and adventurers use it as a vacation spot. A fact not lost on pirates. Tikki is not the only world in the Tropisphere; just the most stable one. Other planets wiz by Tikki as they are tossed about by the octopi at random intervals although only Snowball and Slimeball come close enough to be considerered moons. Snowball is a frigid world that gets little warmth from the suns of the system and is the smaller of Tikki's "moons" with frost giants; white dragons and other cold native monsters living here. From hers some the more daring ogre magi captains stage their raids for capital and slaves, storing them in suspended animation for further use. Slimeball gets its name due to its swamp like interior. Oozes of most types thrive here and the only sentient life is reptillian. Forgotten temples make the supposition of ancient secrets hidden sine time immorial. What explorers do not fall prey to the yuan-ti, lizard folk and their like are enslaved by the aboleth that live here. Still there are no shortage of victims as greed know no limit. In addition to the natural satellites around Planet Tikki there are a number of manufactured vessels somewhere in the sphere at all times. A titanic stone dwarf head with a white octagon on his forehead has been confirmed although the inhabitants are not the sort of dwarves want to associate with.
