Abstract: Let $ P$ be a polynomial of degree $ d$ with a Cremer point $ p$ and no repelling or parabolic periodic bi-accessible points. We show that there are two types of such Julia sets $ J_P$. The red dwarf $ J_P$ are nowhere connected im kleinen and such that the intersection of all impressions of external angles is a continuum containing $ p$ and the orbits of all critical images. The solar $ J_P$ are such that every angle with dense orbit has a degenerate impression disjoint from other impressions and $ J_P$ is connected im kleinen at its landing point. We study bi-accessible points and locally connected models of $ J_P$ and show that such sets $ J_P$ appear through polynomial-like maps for generic polynomials with Cremer points. Since known tools break down for $ d>2$ (if $ d>2$, it is not known if there are small cycles near $ p$, while if $ d=2$, this result is due to Yoccoz), we introduce wandering ray continua in $ J_P$ and provide a new application of Thurston laminations.
