- The coreward end is part of the Outrim Void, including a large, almost starless dust cloud known as the Trojan Bight.
- The population of the Dpres Subsector is largely Imperial human, with some Aslan on Torrance, Delta Theta, and Lacidaeus.
Description[edit]
Dpres Subsector is anarchic and lightly populated, with no multi-world confederations or interstellar governments. The coreward end of the subsector is dominated by the Trojan Bight, a starless region of space. The Tktk tell legends of a time when warring gods 'put out the eyes of night', and fringe scientists speculate about an Ancient weapon capable of snuffing out a star, and that there might be frozen planets in the Bight that were lost when their star was destroyed.
There are three Imperial client states in Dpres -- Gabriel and Dostoevsky both feature research centres, while Dpres itself is an outpost of the Imperium intended to defend shipping and civilise the subsector. The Gabriel facility specialises in genetic engineering, while Dostoevsky's researchers explore an underwater site believed to be of Ancient origin.

Driving this interstellar trade are three Agricultural (Ag) worlds, four Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, one Pre-Agricultural (Pa) world, one Pre-Industrial (Pi) world, three Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Dpres maintain one Naval base. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 5 and 10).

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The chain of worlds from Janus to Acis -- officially the Sindalian Main, also known as the Dustbelt -- has been the site of hundreds of minor wars. These conflicts began when expansionists took hold of Tyr and invaded neighbouring worlds. At the height of their power, the Tyrian Lordships held the entirety of the Dustbelt, as well as Dpres, Connaught and Solaria, but then exiles from Acis brought in Aslan mercenaries from the Glorious Empire.
