	Remarks

Named after the original explorers of the system, the management of the corporate leaders of Shushaka co-opted the symbolism of the system’s five gas giants as the foundations for their corporate values:

• Shushaka: An explorer who leads
• Muhr: The miser who guards resources
• Ikös: A navigator who plans ahead
• Lekïa: The fool, who delights and deceives
• Engia: A foil to Lekïa, the innovator who works tirelessly

The system is led by the fervent, overworked staff of the planetwide Sebokea Corporation. Its ambitious and driven culture works tirelessly to overtake the subsector capital Kaasu and become an economic powerhouse in its own right.
