A low population world in the Ten Suns Subsector of the Massilia Sector. Dezik is a member of the Imperium.

During the Long Night this world was named Lamgupuuan.

Dezik (Massilia 0228) is a cold, sub gas giant circling a small star. Despite its hydrogen atmosphere, it has a water hydrosphere which is frozen on top and kept liquid underneath by the planet's own heat. This star system is judged to be a very young one, and planets are still contracting and sweeping up asteroidal debris.

This unparalleled opportunity to study the processes of planet formation brought the original scientific colony to Dezik. It has since grown to about 2500 sophonts from several cooperating races.
