531-210 is a nonindustrial water world, which has 90% or more of its surface covered in an ocean of water.

  • The inhabitants of this world live on the roughly 10% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This is a "forbidden" world designated as a Red Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it extremely dangerous to visitors. Everyone is forbidden to travel here.
  • This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Ebasha Subsector of Diaspora Sector in the Domain of Sol.
  • It is the homeworld of the Shrashashee sophont race.
