Gzaedhkirrg is a hellworld with an inhospitable environment that makes conditions difficult for most sophonts.

• Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations. Those who dwell on such worlds often form intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by indigenous Sophonts located in the Okhuemgir Subsector of Gzaekfueg Sector.

• This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
• This world has a Vargr Corsair Base.
