Description (Specifications)

Stellar Distribution

A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Second Wing Subsector.

• 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

A basic chart showing rift regions, areas of low stellar density within the subsector, shaded in blue.

Nature of Rifts

Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic concept based purely on Jump Drive performance.

Rift regions generally relate to regular commercial traffic and the way it travels between destinations. Merchant vessels with jump-4 drives or better are fairly rare because of the higher costs involved in operating the vessel, the lower revenue generated by the reduced cargo space due to the need for large fuel tanks, and the relative paucity of technologically advanced maintenance facilities within the region. As a result, the vast majority of merchant vessels are capable of jump-3 or less.

• Large areas that cannot be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels are denoted as rifts.
• The exact nature and borders of a rift may be determined by specific circumstances, tradition, or other locally important criteria.

In order to qualify as a rift, the region must have ten or more contiguous hexes. Many areas have minor void regions that are too small to qualify as a true rift, but are still significant enough to seriously hamper and channel interstellar travel.

Subsector Summary: 1105

Second Wing, subsector C of Thaku Fung contains 26 worlds with an estimated population of 1 million, a per capita income of Cr5,000, and a total economy is BCr5. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr1 through 4 starports (0 Class A, 2 Class B, 1 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 685 people. Driving this interstellar trade are two Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, one Pre-Agricultural (Pa) world, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, one Rich (Ri) world, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Second Wing maintain two Scout bases, and one Naval base. The average technology level is 1 (with most between 0 and 4). The highest technology level is 11 at Cogh (Thaku Fung 1807).

Second Wing, subsector C of Thaku Fung contains 23 stars and 245 identified planets; 15 monostellar systems, four binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 17 of the 26 systems (65%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, one Desert (De) world, one Garden (Ga) world, three Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, two Poor (Po) worlds, four Vacuum (Va) worlds, and no Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Second Wing has an estimated population of 1 million distributed across no High population (Hi) worlds, no Moderate population (Ph) worlds, four Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, no Low population (Lo) worlds, and 15 Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Dredgelund (Thaku Fung 2208). The population consists of 1 sophont groups.

Solomani Preserve

The Solomani Preserve has jurisdiction over all of the worlds with an estimated population of 1 million, a per capita income of Cr5,000, and a total economy is BCr5. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr1 through 4 starports (0 Class A, 2 Class B, 1 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 685 people. Driving this interstellar trade are two Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, one Pre-Agricultural (Pa) world, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, one Rich (Ri) world, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Solomani Preserve maintain two Scout bases, and one Naval base. The average technology level is 1 (with most between 0 and 4). The highest technology level is 11 at Cogh (Thaku Fung 1807).

The Solomani Preserve has an estimated population of 1 million distributed across no High population (Hi) worlds, no Moderate population (Ph) worlds, four Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, no Low population (Lo) worlds, and 15 Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Dredgelund (Thaku Fung 2208). The population consists of 1 sophont groups.
