History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Originally established as a miners colony, the world was abandoned during the Second Imperium after its mineral wealth had been extracted. The world was bought by Jaymi Gregorach McKenzie in 765 as a headquarters for McKenzie Extractions and home for the clan McKenzie.

Today, only family members are allowed to stay in the system for more than six months. The port Foxtrot Oscar (A phonetic radio insult intended to tell visitors to go away), is constructed from the remnants of ancient spaceships attached together by walkways. The main port complex is the hull of The Maverick, a decommissioned Imperial Voroshilef Class Battleship. Three ex-Imperial transports connected together form the warehouse section of the port. The only civilian settlement in the system is the clan home, deep underneath the port, known as Caern Sidhe.
