Lindor

Description

The sixth major planet, Lindor is amazingly large and is the same kind as Jool. Its swirls are fainter and calmer, instilling a particularly restful feeling into onlookers. A critical question has been raised recently- whether Lindor contains water or chocolate.

Trivia

Lindor is a cross between the real life planet Saturn and the ice giants Uranus and Neptune. It's larger than either ice giant, but far smaller than Saturn. It has the orbit, temperature, and cloud bands of Saturn, the color of Neptune, and the chemical composition and rings of Uranus.
