Kallis VII

Planets

Kallis VII is the seventh planet from the sun of the Kallis system. A young gas giant, it formed in the outer parts of the system during the star's stellar nebula phase, where it collected enough mass to attract huge amounts of hydrogen and helium gas over the relatively rapid…

Caliban I

Planets

Caliban I is the first planet from the sun of the Caliban system in Vanduul territory. A small coreless world, it was rich in valuable resources that Humans extracted to aid in the development of Crion (Caliban II). Now completely strip-mined, it is ignored by the Vanduul who…

Kallis Belt Beta

Space

The Kallis belt beta is the second asteroid belt from the sun of the developing Kallis system. Less dense than its sibling belt, it is primarily composed of dust grains and small asteroids that may be remnants from the formation of Kallis IV and Kallis V. In 2931, a group of art…

Ellis VI

Planets

Ellis VI is a terrestrial planet that sits just outside the green band of the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Since 2931, it has been used by Humans as an experimental terraforming site for the development of technology that will allow planets far from their system's…

Caliban III

Planets

Caliban III is the third planet from the sun of the Caliban system in Vanduul territory. When it was first discovered in SEY 2341, it was deemed a non-viable terraforming candidate and left alone in favor of settling Crion (Caliban II). However, by the mid-29th century, there…

Noble (Ellis V)

Planets · Human

Noble (Ellis V) is a heavily forested planet in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE), and is one of three habitable planets in the system. In the early days after its terraforming, colonists established settlements and harvested resources as needed with little regard…

Kabal II

Planets

Kabal II is the second planet from the sun of the Kabal system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). A terrestrial desert world, its position in the system's green band would make it an excellent candidate for terraforming if not for the ancient abandoned Tevarin cities on neighboring…

Leir I

Planets · Human

Leir I is a small, naturally habitable planet in the Leir system. Rich in minerals, it was initially settled by independent miners, mostly Humans, who established settlements without government support from the United Empire of Earth (UEE). It was not officially developed by the…

Kallis I

Planets

Kallis I is a protoplanet in the developing Kallis system. A small mass of matter, it is believed that this protoplanet will eventually coalesce with nearby planetesimals and become a planet. Recent changes in its orbit have pushed it closer to its sun, leading to speculation…

Kallis Belt Alpha

Space

The Kallis belt alpha is an asteroid belt in the developing Kallis system. Densely packed with planetesimals, asteroids, dust, and gasses, matter in the belt is constantly pulled out of orbit by the larger bodies forming on its outer edges. The unusually high amount of motion…

Davien I

Planets · Human

Davien I is the first planet from the sun in the Davien system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). While it bears a striking visual similarity to Earth's moon, it is larger, denser, and undifferentiated. Its lack of mineral resources has left it largely untouched by miners or…

Genesis III

Planets

Genesis III is an ice giant in the developing Genesis system. Located beyond the frost line, it has an upper atmosphere of hydrogen and helium, and a mantle composed of volatile chemical compounds such as ammonia, methane, and water in a supercritical fluid state. Ranging in…

Kallis V

Planets

Kallis V is a terrestrial planet in the developing Kallis system. The fifth planet from its sun, it lacks geological activity and appears to have reached the final stages of its formation. It is surrounded by a wide disk of planetesimals and dust that are likely to be remains…

Kallis VI

Planets

Kallis VI is a terrestrial planet in the developing Kallis system, and is the sixth planet from its sun. Covered in an ocean of molten rock, it is still in an early stage of formation, and its crust is not expected to cool down enough to allow for the formation of continents for…

Kallis III

Planets

Kallis III is a terrestrial planet in the developing Kallis system that shares an orbit with another planet, Kallis II. More massive than its sibling planet, it is also accruing matter at a higher rate, and is expected to continue increasing in size. Observing scientists believe…

Nyx I

Planets

Nyx I is a coreless planet that orbits closest to the sun in the Nyx system. Once considered impossible to terraform due to the presence of irremovable chemicals in its atmosphere, Nyx I has been in the process of terraformation since SEY 2954 thanks to a new type of technology…

Genesis I

Planets

Genesis I is a mesoplanet in the developing Genesis system. Because it lacks a protective atmosphere, its surface is pockmarked with thousands of craters caused by meteorite bombardment, and its core is partially exposed. In 2933, the observation station Lalahon located in the…

Ellis I

Planets

Ellis I is a protoplanet in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Its scorched surface is dotted with lakes of bubbling lava. Exploration attempts of Ellis I have so far been impossible due to the protoplanet's proximity to the sun. In 2799, Dab Demirjian became the…

Kallis IV

Planets

Kallis IV is the fourth planet from the sun of the developing Kallis system. Due to its position in the green band, current size, and robust volcanic activity, it seems to be evolving into an Earth-like planet. Survey teams on OB Station Gryphon monitor Kallis IV around the…

Rest & Relax

Commerce · Human

Rest & Relax is a Human company that maintains a chain of hospitality waystations throughout human space. Engineer Johann Alejandre founded Rest & Relax as a single rest stop in the Baker system in 2901. The company initially operated by purchasing and adapting decommissioned…

Tayac I

Planets

Tayac I is a small, terrestrial planet without an atmosphere in the Tayac system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). From 2546 to 2750, the planet was terraformed and de-terraformed multiple times by the leadership of Project Vespa, a Messer-backed initiative to develop a…

Kallis IX

Planets

Kallis IX is a dwarf planet in the developing Kallis system, and is the ninth planet from its sun. Frigidly cold, its surface is marked with active cryovolcanoes that spew ice and water into the ammonia-rich atmosphere. The planet came to fame in the SEY 2943 Tonya Oriel story…

Oso II

Planets

Oso II is an inhabited terrestrial planet in the Oso system, best known as the home of the developing Osoian civilization. The second world from its sun, it sits in a temperate location in the green band and is covered in lushly forested continents and brackish liquid water…

Osha (Kilian VI)

Planets · Human

Osha is a terraformed super-Earth located in the Kilian system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Many of the original settlers of Osha were service members' families and UEE Navy support personnel due to its proximity to MacArthur (Kilian V). While most of the people on Osha are…
