History & Background (Dossier)

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Veshor is a remote untamed wilderness. Many of the planets and moons within the system may never have had an intelligent being visit them.

  • The resources of the system remain untapped.

Officially, the system almost never sees traffic.

  • Commo typically only picks up natural background noise and static.

The Aslan appear to be using the system as a link in a route across the region.

  • If they are, vessels only enter it very occasionally.
  • They likely conduct refueling operations then continue on their way.

The Aslan may have established an exploration route along the edge of the Great Rift.

Aslan would likely use the route to communicate with and supply their explorers, pioneers, and scattered outposts within the region.

  • The existence of the route and the fuel cache have not been proven.
