Croesus is a poor, non-agricultural and nonindustrial desert world with no free-standing water.

• It is unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
• This world has few prospects for economic expansion and life is very bleak and trying here.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it dangerous to visitors.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Dethenes Subsector of Old Expanses Sector in the Domain of Sol.
• This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
