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…

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 VIII

Planets

Kallis VIII is the seventh planet from the sun of the developing Kallis system. An ice giant, it is composed of hydrogen, helium, and volatile icy compounds. In contrast to its neighboring planet Kallis VII, which began its life in the outer reaches of the Kallis system, it most…

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…

Kallis II

Planets

Kallis II is a terrestrial planet in the developing Kallis system. While it shares an orbit with Kallis III, it passes slightly closer to its sun during perihelion and has thus been designated as the system's second planet. As it pulls in material from the nearby asteroid belts,…

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…

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 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…

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…

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…

Oberon VII

Planets

Oberon VII is a gas giant that orbits the neutron star of the unclaimed Oberon system. Considered by locals to be the only calming sight in the system, Oberon VII has a muted light blue-gray atmosphere that lacks global cloud cover. In 2939, Uriel (Oberon II) resident Ruqayyah…

Tyrol VII

Planets

Tyrol VII is a protoplanet in the unclaimed Tyrol system, and is the outermost planet in the system. In 2943, a widely-reported academic article claimed that Tyrol VII was far enough from its two suns that it had a high chance of remaining out of danger in the event of a nova.…

Ellis VII

Planets

Ellis VII is a terrestrial smog planet orbited by two narrow rings of rock and ice in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Although it is located beyond the system's green band, the surface of Ellis VII is hot, caused by its dense, dark, and high-pressure atmosphere.…

Kallis System

Planetary Systems

Kallis is an unclaimed, developing planetary system in its accretion phase that consists of a G-type main sequence star, a protoplanet, five terrestrial planets, a gas giant, an ice giant, a dwarf planet, and two asteroid belts. Discovered in SEY 2921 by the staff of the OB…

Uranus (Sol VII)

Planets

Uranus (Sol VII) is the seventh planet from the sun of the Sol system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Pale blue in color, it is an ice giant with an atmosphere that is made mostly of water, ammonia, and methane. The UEE government runs orbital research centers dedicated to the…

Astrid Messer VII

People · Human · History

Astrid Messer VII (SEY 2661 - 2701) was one of two Imperators of the United Empire of Earth (UEE) from 2697 to 2701. She seized power from her aunt Illyana Messer VI after the latter died of a sudden stroke. Agents loyal to Illyana smuggled her youngest son and named successor,…

Keene (Kilian VII)

Planets · Human

Keene is a terraformed terrestrial planet located seventh from the star of the Kilian system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). A civilian world, Keene is home to many offices and showrooms for spacecraft manufacturers, along with military-aligned corporations and independent…

Kyu'nao (T.āl VII)

Planets

Kyu'nao (T.āl VII) is the outermost planet from the sun of the T.āl system, Xi'an Empire (SaoXy'an). A gas giant, it has four thick bands of yellow, violet, green, and orange clouds that flow across its prismatic atmosphere. Kyu'nao's appearance informed the Xi'an government's…

OB Station Gryphon

Locations · Human · Military

OB Station Gryphon is an observation post operated by the United Empire of Earth Army (UEEA) in the developing Kallis system. Located near the Kallis-Oso jump point, the station is the system's main operational hub, and is a required checkpoint for all who wish to visit. All…

Najita

Settlements · Human

Najita is the most populous city on Keene (Kilian VII). A coastal city, Najita was originally constructed to work in harmony with the sprawling green hills that surround it. This balance was upset in the 2800s when increasing Vanduul raids in the Caliban system frightened many…
