The Abyss Rift is an area of space within the Lanth Subsector with a curious anomaly.
- It is a smaller rift and typically not mentioned except by locals astrographers or starship captains.
Description (Specifications)
It has been the site of several notable ship disappearances over the last half-millennium and has built up a substantial amount of lore associated with them.
- Curious jump-related phenomena have been reported in the rift for centuries, often by reliable witnesses.
- Scouts plying the x-boat rout report events such as receiving radio signals in jump-space to reports of "someone on the hull, trying to get in".
History & Background (Dossier)
Some Terran observers have called the Abyss Rift the "Bermuda Triangle" of the Spinward Marches sector.
- Experts have expressed extreme incredulity at these claims.
Worlds & Sectors (Astrography)
Only seven systems lie within the Abyss' boundaries.
- The presence of three Red Zone worlds in the rift is taken as further evidence by locals that the rift is a bad place where strange and awful things happen.
- The worlds are Victoria, Ylavin and Sonthert
- Some believe that the anomaly is centered around astrographic hex coordinates #1917.
World Listing: 1105
