History and Background[edit]

Ghaedzaekh is named after a character out of ancient Vargr mythology, the Goddess of Ice. The world was given its name by the first explorers to visit this desolate, frozen rock. They had been previously surveying the Vargr worlds on the Vilani coreward frontier.

Medurma Main StarLines maintains an office and facilities at the starport.

Most of the current small population are either employed at the starport or by a joint DagMet AG-CLiP mineralogical survey team.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Ghaedzaekh has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
