Quare is a nonindustrial vacuum world, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.

  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a client state of the Third Imperium in the Vilis Subsector of Spinward Marches Sector.

Description (Planetology)

It is a non-industrial vacuum world located in neutral space between the borders of the Third Imperium and the Querion Cluster.

History & Background (Dossier)

Quare is a non-industrial vacuum world located in neutral space between the borders of the Third Imperium and the Querion Cluster, on the Spinward edge of Vilis Subsector in the Spinward Marches. Quare is an Imperial Client State.

In 1095 the Leviathan class Merchant Cruiser Marcucci (MC-51336) was captured by corsairs in the Quare region of Vilis. The ship has subsequently been identified on a number of occasions in pirate service; its present fate is unknown.

Era: Rebellion

Following the Fifth Frontier War the Federation of Arden engaged in a renewed campaign of expansion and had absorbed Quare by 1117.

Era: Milieu 1120

At some point following the Fifth Frontier War, Quare joins the Federation of Arden. By 1120 the world exists primarily as a shipyard for the Federation, manufacturing missile boats and patrol corvettes for system defense.
