Liishuga, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial knight and the fiefdoms of a baron and a viscount.

Astrography and planetology

Tidally locked, half the world is a burning desert, the other half is locked in perpetual icy night. A narrow band known as Twilight provides ideal conditions for human habitation. Liishuga’s satellite, Robmuir, is a size-2 in extremely close orbit and its presence causes the zone to shift back and forth in a regular pattern providing periods of light and dark. An extensive ecology exists in the zone and exotic variations in the less pleasant sunward and nightward zones.
