Algae Sward

The Algae Sward is an equatorial sea on the planet Dac.

It is famous because, once a year, thousands of one-celled plants bloom at once, so that the sea becames green-tinted.

South of the Algae Sward are the Seascape Mountains, a range of underwater peaks and home of whaladons.

During the First Battle of Dac, World Devastator Nullifier-5 became unoperative just over the Sward. It was then submerged under twenty meters of water, with inactive repulsors. The Calamarian Council considered it was too expensive to salvage, so it was only stripped of its control system. Upon the following years, it became a home for some of the native sea life, including krakanas, sussimis and nano-stars. Some sport drivers have also started mapping its interior.

At some stage, the Nullifier-5 began leaking toxins at such a rythm that soon the Algae Sward would be poisoned. The Council called a team of specialists to seal the leaky tanks to avoid that.
