Stellar Distribution[edit]
A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Ibaru Subsector, right:
- 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.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Two-thirds of the subsector's population is concentrated at Gishin. It has many developed worlds and significant local manufacturing and industry.
- Several ambitious nobles looking to expand the star ways with a jump bridge or two.
Several of the worlds in this subsector are noted for having "tent cities", an early terraforming technique for marginally habitable worlds.
The adopted homeworlds of the Tentrassi are located in Ibaru. The race's lore makes competing claims for the reason behind their exodus from a mysterious original homeworld. The Homeworld Mystery so consumes certain members of the race, that some band together to search for their origin, giving rise to nomad fleets.
