Carillon is the dimly lit home planet of the Ovions. The resort on the surface of the planet is used by the inhabitants as a lure to kidnap people for the purpose of consuming them. Carillon has rich tylium deposits, which the Ovions had hoped to trade to the Cylons in exchange for independence. The tylium ended up leading to the destruction of the planet, when Starbuck and Apollo set fire to the tylium mines. The explosion of the planet destroys a Cylon basestar along with the Imperious Leader that is aboard. (Saga of a Star World)
