Era: New Era

Utsbesyult is an agricultural world with an ideal environment for producing food from plants, animals, or other forms. It supports a shirt-sleeve atmosphere and a balance of available surface water. The system hosts a population between 100 thousand and 1 million. This world contains an archaeological site with artifacts suspected to be from the now-vanished Ancients. It is a member of Wilds in the Million Subsector of Deneb Sector. 100% of the world's population is the Major Race Droyne. Less than 10% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

It is a garden world with three moons. There are always a small number of Vargr and Human prospectors on the mainworld, wandering through several potentially lucrative geologic areas.

History & Background (Dossier)

Utsbesyult, the world formerly known as 495-524 was an obscure world during the time that the Third Imperium controlled it. With the exception of a fragmentary Ancient site, and a small colony of Droyne that studied it, the world attracted scant attention from the outside universe. That changed after the Vargr invaded and captured the world in 1116. The new overlords enslaved the Droyne, and put them to work unearthing artifacts for their military to use in the future against the Domain of Deneb. A small group of Droyne escaped captivity, and journeyed to somewhere trailing, eventually bringing back several liberation minded kroylosses from an undisclosed Droyne world. A low level war raged between the Vargr occupation troops and these freedom fighters for the remainder of the Civil War period, until Virus overran the Federate, and the burgeoning numbers of off-world Droyne overwhelmed and massacred the Vargr in a fit of O'tritsuniya.

The liberated world eventually made contact with RQS cadres operating in Millions, and the proximity of these forces caused a change among the imported Droyne soldiers. It is unknown whether the threat or pressure of Virus was keenly felt on whatever world these Droyne came from, or that some other threat was wearing down on them, but in 1145 the first transports carrying Oytrip previously uninvolved in the fighting appeared above Utsbesyult, disgorged their cargo, and disappeared to trailing. Eventually they reappeared, with yet more Droyne. This has created a steady increase in the world's population, and the small colony is slowly becoming a major Droyne world.

Trade and contact with this community has been strained by their distance from the Regency Frontier and their expressed desire to be left alone except on special occasions or during emergencies. The chief Oytrip is the Oysteroum, a powerful group that has its own significant ground and naval forces. Most of the Droyne subsist on TL–8 material, but there are signs that the Oytrip have access to TL–10 to TL–12 material, and even some more advanced gear that is carefully cached. To date the community has been peaceful, making no attempts beyond an occasional trade mission to the Frontier to break their isolation.
