Carillon V is a small gas giant in the Carillon system, orbiting beyond the frost line and with an atmosphere consisting of about seventy seven percent hydrogen, nineteen percent helium and three percent methane with the remaining one percent composed of a mixture of trace gases including some poorly understood phosphate compounds in suspension which might be organic in origin and lend an unusual purple tint to the clouds. The planet has three moons large enough to be spherical under gravity. Carillon V is best known as the location of the Great Hammer. Construction of this rival to the Luminal Forge began in 2485 on the inner moon of Mjölnir and it was to become a key asset for the new Republic when it split from the Solar Group. Here we see Mjölnir above the cloud tops of Carillon V as seen from an approaching republican supply ship.
