Anomaly is a moderate population world with over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in population size.
- This world contains an archaeological site with suspected high-tech remnants of the now-vanished Ancients precursor race.
- It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Argi Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector in the Domain of Vland.
- This world contains an Imperial Scout Base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
- During the Long Night this world was named Gaishnen.
- Nearly 100% of the population is composed of Droyne.
- Less than 10% of the population is composed of humans and other sophonts.
Description (Planetology)
Conditions on this world are both harsh and baffling. The planet as a whole appears to have been distorted into an ellipsoidal shape in the geologically recent past. What is more puzzling is that there is no nearby moon or gas giant which could have caused the distortion, and there is no indication of a recent impact on the surface. The planetary crust has been shattered, and measurements indicate cataclysmic tremors on the surface as the planet “relaxes” to a spherical shape through its own self-gravity. Orbital surveys also show unusual density anomalies.
History & Background (Dossier)
Since the system is in a little-travelled side branch of the Dagudashaag Main, it is only since the mid-700s that the IISS has made any significant effort to investigate the planet. The Scouts also provide technical support (in a somewhat halfhearted fashion) to the several Droyne oytrip present in-system. Some of the Droyne research the planet, whilst others undertake small-scale mining in-system. The IISS have only just begun to realize the significance of the system.
Point of Interest: Super-technology Cables
An expedition to the planet’s surface in 1112 made an astonishing discovery - an array of “cables” some 1700 km long, buried in the planetary crust at a depth of about 4.0m.
- The cables are composed of monadium, the same material as was found at the Ancient base on Antiquity (Corridor 0816).
Local Nobility
Anomaly, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of two members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
