In the Almagest religion, the Aspidochelone is a massive turtle-like creature whose shell is often mistaken by sailors to be an island. He is Water Resolute: the great sea depths in their untamed but passive state. As such, he is the patron of seafaring traders as well as of naval warfare. He is also the patron of the arcane school of illusion. His month of Chelydaans is the eleventh of the Common Calendar and second month of Autumn. He is shown in the heavens as the constellation of the same name.
