Overview

Atmosphere
Titania's atmosphere is predominantly hydrogen with trace elements of nitrogen, oxygen, ammonia and argon making up less than five percent of the total, and is approximately forty-eight thousand kilometers thick (about one hundred times the size of Lylat's). This atmosphere gives the illusion that Titania is larger than it appears despite the fact it is slightly smaller in size. It maintains a consistent temperature of -550º F, made even colder by the hundred kilometer-per-hour windstorms which rip across the planet. Lightning is common.
Geology
A mixture of metaphoric and igneous rock embedded in mostly ice, Titania's internal composition is similar to Lylat's. Its topmost crust is a twenty-kilometer thick ice shell broken by frozen islands of rock; the subsurface, subglacial ocean beneath is half that, and honeycombs the shell in tunnels, caverns, and exposed lakes and rivers of ammonia-methane "water", with ordinary water making up about seventy-five percent of total. The oceanic crust is about five to seven kilometers thick; the rest follows the typical composition of an ordinary planet.
Hydrothermal vents break the ocean floor and shoot upwards to warm the subglacial ocean, producing balmy temperatures of approximately 80º F at certain distances; the bases of these vents are often too hot. They melt through the ice to refresh the atmosphere, create seas on the surface, and have helped form the myriad tunnels which honeycomb the shell. Many of these vents are found in underwater mountains, evidence of volcanism and planetary activity.
Native life
Multiple chemoautotrophic and chemoheterotrophic species live in the ocean. Their entire biosphere is built in the dark subaqueous world, with countless species providing their own light while vast colonies of “coral-like” chemoheterotrophic plants of minerals and semi-rigid materials dot the bottoms of canyons and the bases of mountains. A single dominant species, the chemoautotrophic Crystaliens, controls the planet.
