Veshor is a barren world with no overt population, government, or law level.

• This world could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
• It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Emma Subsector of Iphigenaia Sector.

• This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
• This is a temperate world, with a climate of pleasant, average temperatures, considered to be an ideal or near-ideal environment by many different sophont species.

System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x3 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x4 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

Veshor is tidally locked to its primary star.

• The star is always high in the sky on the bright face, it hangs on horizon in the twilight zone, while the cold dark face is in permanent darkness.
• The world experiences libration - a regular wobble - as it orbits, causing the star to move in the sky.

It orbits within the prime region of its star's habitable zone.

• It receives moderate levels of stellar energy.

Mainworld Size (S)

Veshor is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Veshor has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.

• It experiences generally moderate temperatures within the twilight zone.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Veshor has 65-75% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has significant large liquid bodies. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.

Native Lifeforms

Abundant native life filling every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

Veshor is a remote and desolate frontier. Very few intelligent beings have ever have set foot on any of the worlds in the system.

The Aslan appear to be using the system as a link in a secretive path across the region. If they are, their vessels only enter the system very occasionally. They likely conduct refueling operations then continue on their way.

Aslan Clan interests may have established an exploration route, seeking to find a safe course into the empty systems of Theron Sector. They seem to be moving along the very edge of the Great Rift, using isolated systems and a hidden fuel cache.

• The most likely location for any such fuel cache is considered to be hex 2901 of Waoasi Subsector (Subsector D of Faoheiroi'iyhao Sector).
• If it really exists, the route relies on Jump-5 vessels.

The Clans would likely use any such 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.
