  • It is a subject world of the Korsumug Empire located in the Taltan Subsector of Mavuzog 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.
  • It lies on the Korsumug Main.
  • Around 70% of the population is consists of humans.
  • About 30% of the population is made up of Jaibok.
