Gembolia Subsector is Subsector D of Astron Sector.

  • It lies within Charted Space.
  • It is a wild and remote wilderness.

Description / Specifications[edit]

Gembolia Subsector is a largely unpopulated and undeveloped wilderness. Some worlds within the region have never had an intelligent being visit them.

  • Its systems comprise part of the Outer Loop, a ring of jump-3-accessable systems that surround the Hudson Expanse rift region.
  • The resources of the subsector are for the most part untapped.

Stellar Distribution[edit]

A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Gembolia Subsector.

  • The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
  • The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.

Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.

  • Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
  • Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the subsector and far beyond.

Rift Regions[edit]

Two rift areas lie within the subsector: the Gembolian Void and the Hudson Expanse.

Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic concept based on Jump Drive performance.

The highest tech level commonly encountered out this Far Along (spinward of the Third Imperium) is TL–12, though a few worlds may be more advanced.

Borealis Group[edit]

The Borealis Group can be seen as a bright, dense, noticeable grouping of stars in the skies to rimward.
