Drinax Chain

The Drinax Chain -- called the Tyokh Cluster by many Aslan -- is an astrographic feature located in Trojan Reach Sector.

Description / Specifications

From the Drinax Chain, a jump-2 vessel can cross to the Torpol Cluster and from there reach the Wildeman Cluster or else head core-spinward to the Sindalian Main. Jump-2 traffic can also cross trailing into the Borderland Cluster, an alternative route to the Wildeman Cluster and Third Imperium space.

Economic Data

Goods

Notable commodities traded among the worlds of this cluster include the following:

• Byrni Bread and Beer ("the taste of Old Sindal!"): Made under license by General Development Corporation franchisees. The product line is expanding to include cherry- and sour cherry-based drinks, preserves, smoked meats, wursts and cheeses.
• Byrni-produced linen houseware, shirting and suiting fabrics.
  • Aslan-inspired Aua leather armour and military harness.
• Expensive hardwoods from Byrni, including varieties of ironwood and cherry.
• Khusai Saow, or 'Khusan Spam': "Special Processed Aslan Meat", ubiquitous on the Chain. Note that Aslan find it highly offensive, regarding it fit only for Human consumption.
• Purple linden wood from Khusai, valued for furniture-making.
  • Made from the inner bark of purple linden trees, linden bast makes strong traditional cordage, sacking fabric and durable outerwear.
• Very low density materials from Paal, used for packaging or decorative pieces.
  • 'Paalico', a hardwearing cotton, usually brightly-dyed or printed.
• Sperlish Amoeballs and other cheap amoeba-based food products from Sperle.
