Remarks

Mainworld Data[edit]

The lower atmosphere and hydrosphere are dominated by sulphur compounds and gasses, making the surface of the planet largely uninhabitable. The upper atmosphere is stratified from the lower and classed as between a 7 and a 9 (standard to dense, tainted). This portion of the atmosphere is where "sky cities," floating anti-grav platforms, exist. The sky cities vary in size and function. Some are occupied by the rich or elite with commensurate luxuries. Others are used for industrial or mining operations in the lower atmosphere or on the planet's surface.

  • Sky cities include:
    • Razule, Ral Ranta control
    • Respite, Ginsharian control
    • Bouvet, Imperial control
