The Corosso system is a binary star system with a combined eight planets and three major planetoids. Three of the eight planets are gas giants. The two stars are approximately 20AU distant from each other and each have their own system of planets. They orbit around a barycenter 10.69 AU from the M2 V star on a 93.5 standard year period.

Corosso was colonized during the [[Rule of Man]] period and was a member of the Solomani Confederation. During the [[Solomani Rim War]] the government collapsed and the world fell into a balkanized state of 13 nations. These nations organized into pro-Solomani, pro-Imperial and non-aligned power blocs. After a short period of war the three largest nations are locked into a cold war. Spy games and proxy wars are common occurrences. Each of the three nations maintains their own Naval forces and [[starport]]s.

Corosso is a poor, moderate population pre-industrial hellworld, with over a hundred million but not yet a billion sophonts struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often develop intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
  • This world would like to become a major industrial powerhouse in the subsector, but lacks the population and resources to build an adequate workforce and industrial business sector.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Oriah Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.


Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]

This system is part of the cluster known as the Darlany Six.

Stellar Data[edit]

The Corosso system is a binary star system with a combined eight planets and three major planetoids. Three of the eight planets are gas giants. The two stars are approximately 20AU distant from each other and each have their own system of planets. They orbit around a barycenter 10.69 AU from the M2 V star on a 93.5 standard year period.

Corosso has two stars in the star system.

Historical Data[edit]

Corosso was colonized during the Rule of Man period and was a member of the Solomani Confederation. During the Solomani Rim War the government collapsed and the world fell into a balkanized state of 13 nations. These nations organized into pro-Solomani, pro-Imperial and non-aligned power blocs. After a short period of war the three largest nations are locked into a cold war. Spy games and proxy wars are common occurrences. Each of the three nations maintains their own Naval forces and starports.
