Dn'bru'vkr is a low-population vacuum world, with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts in population size, warranting hazardous environment precautions.

  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Houkhtearl Subsector of Khaeaw Sector.
  • It orbits the tertiary star.
  • Vacuum worlds have no climate, but experience extreme differences in temperature between direct starlight and shade.
  • This world has an exploration base, which is similar to an Imperial Scout Base, capable of handling explorer personnel and exploratory starships.
