Aeradh is a water world with 90% or more of its surface covered in an ocean of water. The system has a population between 10,000 and 10 million, lacking the industrial base to be completely self-supporting. It is a member of Julian Protectorate in the Tsosoe Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector and in the Hegemony of Lorean. 100% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

History and Background[edit]

An Irilitok settlement, Aeradh is closely tied to the Star Legion base -- and Julian Protectorate bureaucracies -- on nearby Kharo (Empty Quarter 2708). Kharo is classified as a 'rich' world, and it does have a larger population. But the world has a weak gravitational field and a tainted atmosphere as well, so it is not as healthy for humans to reside on long-term. The Vargr colonists of Aeradh try to deal with the Julian government whenever possible, rather than with the Hegemony of Lorean directly. But sometimes, they have no choice but to face the Cold Ones all by themselves...

World Starport[edit]

Aeradh has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Languages[edit]

  • Irilitok: The language family of the most populous Vargr phenotype and ethnic culture within the Julian Protectorate.

World Timeline[edit]

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

  • 359-375: War of Man, as Humans rebel against repressive Vargr rule in coreward Empty Quarter Sector.
  • 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.
