Sudvoukh has both an unbreathable thin atmosphere and a lack of surface water making habitation by sophonts difficult. The system has a population between 10,000 and 10 million, lacking the industrial base to be completely self-supporting. It is a member of Julian Protectorate in the Tsahrroek Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector and in the Rukadukaz Republic. 80% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

Astrography and Planetology[edit]

Sudvoukh is a rocky desert world, barely capable of supporting life above some basic molds, fungi and life of a similar nature. Long ago, several nearby worlds used Sudvoukh as a penal colony for various types of prisoners. Over the decades, the few survivors that managed to eke out a life on the barren plains of Sudvoukh formed tribes of roaming scavengers that compete for rare local resources such as water and control over the fungal fields that provide nourishment.

History and Background[edit]

The Star Legion maintains regular patrols in the system, as it is rumored that corsair bands such as the recently successful Aengsoekkuervoe have been recruiting raiders and boarding troops from the hardened tribal warriors.

This world was in the midst of an extensive terraforming project when the Julian War started. Most of the scientists and researchers fled the incoming Imperial warships: the few that didn’t died for their stubbornness.
