Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Gimemuh is a member of the Staai Main, a cluster and important regional trade route lying across parts of Canopus Sector, Dark Nebula Sector, and Magyar Sector. The border between the Solomani Confederation and the Aslan Hierate divides it into distinctive spinward and trailing regions. Large numbers of Humans and Aslan, most typically merchants, traders, or casual visitors such as tourists, can be found on both sides of the border.

Hyades Cluster[edit]

The huge stars of the Hyades Cluster, a few parsecs to trailing, are clearly visible to the naked eye from the surface of the world.

  • The tidal influence of the stars at the Cluster's core can be detected in the orbits of the system's planets and moons.
  • Despite their immense distance from the world, the Cluster's stars cause interference, strange tones and noises, and constant static on commo and sensors.

Solomani Security keeps a close eye on things to ensure the security of the Confederation and the well-being of its loyal citizens.
