History & Background (Dossier)

High cargo capacity, low jump rating vessels move along the worlds of the Cluster carrying huge amounts of goods and commodities to its varied markets. Jump-2 and Jump-3 feeder routes work their ways around the rifts and voids that dot the region, linking the Trace to outlying worlds.

Solomani Security keeps a close eye on activities and events within the Cluster to ensure the security of the Confederation and the well-being of its loyal citizens. Almost anyone could be a SolSec informant, passing on all sorts of useful information: some gain a reward or benefit for their actions, others are coerced, but many see it as an act of duty to help protect the Solomani state and its interests.
