Jump map from Travellermap.com

Untouchable is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and barren in nature with no overt population, government, or law level.

• There is a very small community of 10,000 sophonts or less living here.
• These worldlets would warrant hazardous environment precautions if anyone lived here.
• They could be further populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
• This world contains an archaeological site with suspected high-tech remnants of the now-vanished Ancients precursor race.
• It is a member of the Hegemony of Lorean in the The Sandworlds Subsector of Star's End Sector.

(ostensibly, at least).

History & Background (Dossier)

This system should be considered to be an Ancient artifact in its entirety. Other than the mainworld belt and one gas giant, the only other body in the system is an artificial satellite of size 5 in orbit around the giant. Attempts to come within 15AU of the primary of the system results in the destruction of the vessel in question, through an agency that remains unknown. The best defenses available to investigating ships have been insufficient to protect them.

World Timeline

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this world and the surrounding region:

• 814: The Third Imperium and the Arzula authorities forge a trading agreement, leading to the creation of the Deep Space Stations of the Saeghvung-Turley-Exile Run, crossing the Lesser Rift in Empty Quarter Sector.
• 822-835: Much of Arzul Sector is conquered by the Arzula.
  • 835-860s: The Blighted War drains the Arzula's nascent Hegemony as it tries to conquer five subsectors.
• 864: The modern Hegemony of Lorean is founded, starting out as a 'trade and aid' group of interstellar traders centred on a cluster of high-population systems dominating Mycocona Subsector.
  • The great success of this trade coalition leads to a sharp rise of economic and then military power.
• 869-870: The repressive methods of the Hegemony, and the refusal of local resistance to buckle, leads to the Era of Horror in parts of coreward Empty Quarter Sector, as the Hegemony responds with undue cruelty against its enemies.
• 872: The worlds of Kotsfa Subsector secede from the Hegemony, defying efforts to stop them.
  • Further disintegration is only prevented with the suicide of the Hegemon and radical economic reforms introduced by his successor.
• 933-936: The defection of the Damlaer Union from the Julian Protectorate to the Hegemony leads to the Lorean Strikes. Failed military action leads to a major political crisis within the Protectorate.
• 940: As part of this political upheaval, the government of the Ikonaz Sphere collapses, replaced by the Rukadukaz Republic.
• 942: The Protectorate and the Hegemony formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Julian Protectorate.
