Description / Specifications[edit]

Astrographic Features & Trade Routes[edit]
Stellar Distribution[edit]
The subsector contains no stars or stellar scale bodies.
It is likely to contain a number of dark, frozen, starless rogue worlds and wandering icy planetoids within its depths.
Rift Regions[edit]
The subsector lies within the Windhorn Rift.
- The rift hinders travel and commerce across the region.
A simple map showing rift regions within Aghoukone Subsector, right:
Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic concept based on Jump Drive performance.
The boundaries of rifts were established centuries ago, when the highest commonly encountered tech level was TL–12.
- This level of technology allowed the routine use of up to Jump-3 drives.
- Areas that couldn't be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels were denoted as rifts.
This traditional definition of rift regions remains in use today: while modern high performance starships can easily cross them, most commercial vessels continue to utilize Jump-3 or less drives. Because of this most traffic is concentrated within higher stellar density regions, and as such the classic definition and boundaries of rift regions remains relevant.
Data[edit]
Entirely devoid of worlds, occasional derelicts -- graveyard NAFAL exploration vessels from across the Windhorn Rift -- drift from this subsector and become salvaged as museum relics in Okhuemgir Subsector.
Aghoukone Subsector holds the interest of Scouts and Loner Vargr explorers, mostly scientific operations studying comets, rogue asteroids, rogue planets and other anomalies. Such operations are rarely charismatic in the eyes of typical Urzaeng Vargr.
