Ologi

**Ologi** was a manmade planet in the Cassiopeia Galaxy, built as an urban mechanical sphere that derived its power from a star entrapped inside it. A successor to the planet Ologi Minor, Ologi was the second homeworld of the Ologans, a technologically-advanced race who built their second homeworld out of pure necessity and want.

## Description

The planet Ologi was located in the Mirandan Worlds sector of the galaxy, which itself was situated in the northern reaches of the galactic Outer Core region. Being a Dyson sphere built to encompass the mass of a medium-sized yellow star, Ologi was hollowed out and made livable for billions of Ologans. The Ologan star itself sat in the center of the hollowed planet, with an advanced device used to help block out excess light radiating off of the star, allowing for Ologi's citizens to safely look into the sky without fear of going blind. This shelled star sat atop the tower of the planet's Sentinel.

A mechanical marvel, Ologi was entirely urbanized, with cities all around the inner shell of the Dyson sphere homeworld. It was said that Ologi was tremendously larger in size than the original Ologan homeworld of Ologi Minor, which was given the name Minor because of its comparatively diminutive size.

### Government

The Ologan planetary government was officially called the **Great Minds of Ologi**, sometimes simplified to the **Great Minds**, which was a meritocracy in which those who were considered the wisest and brightest of all Ologans were set to rule over the planet. The title of leader of **Savant**, which was held by innovator Orson Wellian.

## History

### Exodus and Founding

The original Ologan homeworld of Ologi Minor was completely strip mined, to the point where unnaturally large earthquakes occurred, thus causing the destruction of tectonic plates. Lava leaked out from the mantle, creating a polluted atmosphere from all of the ash and smog.

And thus came an Ologan man named Orson Wellian, who founded the Dyson sphere project that created a new homeworld for the Ologans. Wellian's colleague Dyson, for which the Dyson sphere concept was named after, had already cemented the blueprints for the creation of Dyson spheres. These blueprints and ideas were based off of the pre-existing concept of manmade Ologan ringworlds that encircled stars. With this established, the creation of the Ologi Dyson sphere was not too difficult of a feat, as the technology had already been made possible.

Anything considered significant to Ologan history was either moved to their new Dyson sphere homeworld or reconstructed, before the eventual destabilization of their original homeworld's core. Orson Wellian gained a glorious reputation for having founded the creation project for the new Ologan homeworld, granting him the role of head of state—the title of Savant—for many years to come. By the 60th century ASA, Wellian continued to hold the title of Savant.

## Inhabitants

The main inhabitants of Ologi were the Ologans, who created and migrated to Ologi after the destruction of their original homeworld.

### Sentinels

Sentinel Ologi was a particularly well-respected figure within Ologan society. Ologan Sentinels, like Celia Cullins, were given their own personal tower where they could conduct their own research and experiments.

### Notable Figures

* **Orson Wellian** - the founder of the project that created the manmade planet of Ologi, who managed to extend his lifespan with highly-advanced technology.
* **Dyson** - a close colleague of Orson that cemented the concepts for the eponymous Dyson sphere.
* **Yorick Hulgora** - a privateer and archaeological scholar who once traveled the Cassiopeia Galaxy as a crewmate on the *Berdema Nova*.

## Locations

### Interplanetary Museum of Natural Science

The **Interplanetary Museum of Natural Science** was an Ologan institution that hosted tours which informed visitors about the many accomplishments made by Ologans in the world of science, especially in the realms of technology and artificial intelligence.

### Museum of Old History

The **Museum of Old History** hosted informative tours about the history of the Ologans that lived on the original Ologan homeworld of Ologi Minor, thousands of years before the construction of Ologi as a Dyson sphere world. Inside the museum, a variety of artifacts with radically different designs compared to the architecture of the Dyson sphere could be found, as well as paintings depicting the rustic, more simplistic life of Ologans back on Ologi Minor.

### Ologan Archaeology Academy

The **Ologan Archaeology Academy** was a prestigious university institution that functioned as a branch of the Cassiopeian Society of Exploration and History. As implied, the school primarily taught its students the skills needed to formally enter the field of archaeology. Students of the academy were made official members of CSEH. By the mid-60th century ASA, the academy was overseen by Headmaster Novotto. One notable student of the academy was Yorick Hulgora.

## Trivia

* The cityscape of Ologi was inspired by the Spire, the grand capital city of the planet Zakuul featured in  *Star Wars: The Old Republic: Knights of the Fallen Empire*.
