Zachrisson Subsector is Subsector L of Fulani Sector.
- It lies within Charted Space.
- It is a lawless, dangerous frontier.
Description / Specifications[edit]
Zachrisson Subsector is a region seeing gradual settlement and exploitation by independent humans.
- The resources of the subsector are for the most part untapped.
Astrographic Features & Trade Routes: 1105[edit]
The following astrographic and commercial data has been determined regarding Zachrisson Subsector:
- The subsector is an average stellar density region.
- The brightest star is the red giant primary of the Gindumemu system.
- No trade routes are noted as crossing the region.
Stellar Distribution[edit]
A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Zachrisson Subsector, right:
- 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.
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.
Rift Regions[edit]
A simple map showing rift regions within Zachrisson Subsector, right:
The highest tech level commonly encountered out this Far Along (spinward of the Third Imperium) is TL–12, though a few worlds may be more advanced.
- This level of technology allows the routine use of up to Jump-3 drives.
- Areas that cannot be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels are denoted as rifts.
Borealis Group[edit]
The Borealis Group can be seen as a bright, dense, noticeable grouping of stars in the skies to Spinward-rimward.
- It is a huge cluster of stars centered on the supergiant Theta Borealis.
- It is a distinctive astrographic feature that can be observed from all across Charted Space.
World Listing: 1105[edit]
AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:
Subsector Summary: 1105[edit]
Note that this section relates to pre-Second Survey data and is awaiting an AAB Interal Records update.
Zachrisson, subsector L of Fulani, contains 25 worlds with an estimated combined population of 3.3 million. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr24 through 8 starports (0 Class A, 1 Class B, 4 Class C, 3 Class D) employing 3,560 people. Driving this interstellar trade are no Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, no Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The highest technology level is B at Aneparnuuk (Fulani 3228).
Zachrisson, subsector L of Fulani, contains 38 stars; 14 monostellar systems, ten binary systems, no trinary systems, and one system with four or more stars. 22 of the 25 systems (88%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, one Desert (De) world, no Garden (Ga) worlds, three Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, four Poor (Po) worlds, three Vacuum (Va) worlds, and one Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) world.

Non-Aligned, Human-dominated[edit]
There are 25 Non-Aligned Human-dominated worlds in Zachrisson with an estimated combined population of around 3.3 million.
Description / Specifications[edit]
Zachrisson Subsector is a largely independent region, though Zhodani traders, pioneers, and explorers occasionally pass through the area.
Polity Listing: 1105[edit]
No polities are known to exist within (or make any claim upon) the subsector.
Native Sophonts (NILs): 1105[edit]
No races (sophont species) are believed to have originated in this area.
The region is home to the Bolth: they are aggressive serpentine creatures whose homeworld remains unknown. They claim to have come from another galaxy.
Demographics: 1105[edit]
Significant populations of the following races (sophont species) reside within this area:
- Humaniti (Human Races):.
- Non-Human Races
- Bolth: 110,000 on three worlds.
Major Historical Events Timeline: 1105[edit]
- ca -1900: The first known Human explorers are active in the region (a few Terrans of the Rule of Man). They largely continue to spinward.
- -1776: The Long Night begins.
- Year 0: Far to trailing, across the Great Rift, the Third Imperium is founded.
- 100s-200s: A few pioneering Imperial explorers may have passed through the subsector.
- 300-420: First Survey charts the subsector.
- 995-1065: Second Survey charts the subsector.
- 1065: the Second Survey is published.
