Trin's Veil Subsector is Subsector P of the Spinward Marches.

Physical Astrography[edit]

The subsector takes its name from the nighttime view on Trin -- a veil of highly reflective debris, the fragments of a shattered moon, which makes much of the evening and early morning on Trin a bright twilight. [1]

Astrographic Features[edit]

The following astrographic data has been determined regarding Trin's Veil Subsector:

  • The subsector is an average stellar density region.
  • The brightest star is the red giant primary of the Raydrad system.

Stellar Distribution[edit]

A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Trin's Veil Subsector.

  • The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
  • The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.

(Chart sourced from Traveller Map)

Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.

  • Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
  • Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the subsector and far beyond.

World Listing[edit]

Comprehensive Second Survey data for all worlds lying within Trin's Veil Subsector is available.

  • The primary source material is the T5SS data and Traveller Map.
  • Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
  • Older, incorrect, or outdated data is retained for reference.

AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:

32 Worlds in the Trin's Veil Subsector in Era: Milieu 1116
Aramis  •   Burtson  •   Chamois  •   Conway  •   D'Mara  •   Dobham  •   Dodds  •   Edenelt  •   Farquahar  •   Hammermium  •   Hazel  •   Katarulu  •   Keltchner  •   Leander  •   Murchison  •   Pepernium  •   Prilissa  •   Pyramus  •   Ramiva  •   Raydrad  •   Robin  •   Squanine  •   Tee-Tee-Tee  •   Tenelphi  •   Thisbe  •   Thornnastor  •   Traltha  •   Trin  •   Tussinian  •   Youghal  •   Zephyr  •   Zyra


Verified updated data is constantly sought.

  • Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.

Non-Canon World[edit]

Ayoreldold is an agricultural world supposedly lying within Spinward Marches Hex 2632.

  • It is not marked on modern star charts and may be nothing more than an Old Spacer's Tale.

Mains Clusters & Traces[edit]

Chart: Mains & Clusters

High cargo capacity, low jump rating vessels move along the clusters and traces of the sector, carrying vast amounts of goods and commodities between their member worlds. Jump-2 and Jump-3 feeder routes work their ways around the rifts and voids that dot the region, linking the various clusters and traces.

Clusters[edit]

Cluster is a broad astrographic term for groups of between 10 and 50 systems that are accessible by jump-1-capable starships.

Clusters are highlighted in tan: two clusters lie wholly or partially within the subsector.

Traces[edit]

Trace is an astrographic term for groups of between 5 and 10 systems that are accessible by jump-1-capable starships.

Traces are highlighted in brown: one trace-sized cluster of worlds lies partially within the subsector.

Subsector Summary[edit]

Symbol Domain of Deneb 2.png

Trin's Veil, subsector P of Spinward Marches, contains 32 worlds with an estimated combined population of 15 billion, a per capita income of Cr14,606, and a total economy of BCr222,020. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr5,153 through 27 starports (6 Class A, 9 Class B, 8 Class C, 4 Class D) employing 1,879,530 people. Driving this interstellar trade are seven Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, two Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and two Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Trin's Veil maintain eight Scout bases, three Naval bases, and one Way station. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 4 and 10). The highest technology level is 15 at Trin (Spinward Marches 3235).

Trin's Veil, subsector P of Spinward Marches, contains 40 stars and 324 identified planets; 24 monostellar systems, eight binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 27 of the 32 systems (84%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, three Desert (De) worlds, no Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, five Poor (Po) worlds, two Vacuum (Va) worlds, and two Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Trin's Veil has an estimated population of 15 billion distributed across two High population (Hi) worlds, one Moderate population (Ph) world, 21 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, four Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Trin (Spinward Marches 3235). The population consists primarily of 1 sophont group.

1 identified sophont population in Trin's Veil


Third Imperium, Domain of Deneb[edit]

The Third Imperium, Domain of Deneb has jurisdiction over all of the worlds with an estimated combined population of 15 billion, a per capita income of Cr14,606, and a total economy of BCr222,020. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr5,153 through 27 starports (6 Class A, 9 Class B, 8 Class C, 4 Class D) employing 1,879,530 people. Driving this interstellar trade are seven Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, two Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and two Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in the Third Imperium, Domain of Deneb maintain eight Scout bases, three Naval bases, and one Way station within the subsector. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 4 and 10). The highest technology level is 15 at Trin (Spinward Marches 3235).

The Third Imperium, Domain of Deneb has an estimated population of 15 billion within the subsector, distributed across two High population (Hi) worlds, one Moderate population (Ph) world, 21 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, four Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Trin (Spinward Marches 3235). The population consists primarily of 1 sophont group.
