A penal colony for blue-collar workers, Alleria provides precious ore to half a dozen systems. The harsh living conditions and brutally long shifts ensure that only the strongest and most dangerous criminals survive.

Alleria is an ice world used as a penal colony. The planet is mined for its iridium (a dense, very hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal of the platinum family) by captured criminals. The Juggernauts, including Tournament champion Gorge come from this planet.

A number of Tournament maps are set on Alleria. These maps include: DM-AquaMortis, DM-1on1-Crash, DM-Oceanic

Fauna

This Allerian Ice Shark is a fearsome predator, capable of devouring a man in seconds. If it could carry a weapon, there's no doubt the Overseers would've found a way to put him in the Tournament as well. Not surprisingly, though, it still manages to rack up a respectable number of kills. Impromptu games of water polo are highly discouraged...

Allerian Ice Shark in DM-Oceanic

Alleria doesn't seem to support a large variety of life due to its cold. The only known native life form is the Allerian Ice Shark, which looks similar to Earth's sharks.

The Allerian Ice Shark has one big dorsal fin, two pectoral fins, two pelvic fins, and a caudal fin. It also has darker, ventral and dorsal finlets. Its head is distinct from its body due to its pointy ridge covering the neck. Underneath the ridge are a number of barbels, and right behind its head are 5 gill openings on either side.

Allerian Ice Sharks appear in DM-Oceanic (UT2003/UT2004/UC) and DM-AquaMortis (UC).
