Foralin Subsector is Subsector N of Far Home Sector.
Description / Specifications
Foralin Subsector is named for the Foralin system and its red giant primary star. The Spinward Drift Star Lane crosses the Subsector. Its rimward regions are considered to lie within the Great Void. Foralin Subsector is a relatively undeveloped backwater with few advanced worlds.
Physical Astrography
The following astrographic features and Star Lanes can be found within Foralin Subsector:
Clusters & Traces
Rifts & Voids
Star Lanes
A single Star Lane lies within the Subsector:
Other Astrographic Features
Stars
- Basilisk's Eye (1723 Tarchon Sector). The extremely luminous white supergiant star, lying around 137 parsecs to coreward-trailing, can be clearly seen from all of the worlds of the Subsector.
- Demon's Eye (1621 Far Home Sector). The intensely luminous blue supergiant star, lying approximately 9 parsecs to coreward at its closest point, can be clearly seen from all of the worlds of the Subsector].
World Listing:
The following systems and worlds can be found within Annistu Subsector:
11 Worlds in the Foralin Subsector
Unexplored System
One system within Foralin Subsector remains officially unexplored as of 5600AD. It lies four parsecs from the Distant Fringe proper, within the Great Void, placing it beyond the range of conventional vessels. It is likely that governments and organisations know significantly more about it than is made available to the general public.

Subsector Summary:
Foralin, subsector N of Far Home has 12 worlds, of which 9 have native gas giants. The estimated population for the subsector is 178 million sophonts (not necessarily humans). There are no High population (Hi) worlds, no Moderate population (Ph) worlds, four Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, three Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. There are two Agricultural (Ag) worlds versus no Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, and one Non-Agricultural (Na) world. There are two Rich (Ri) worlds versus no Industrial (In) worlds. There are two Asteroid (As) belts, two Desert (De) worlds, two Garden (Ga) worlds, two Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, two Poor (Po) worlds, two Vacuum (Va) worlds, and one Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) world. There are no Naval bases in the subsector, no Scout bases, and no Way stations. The highest population world is Saldazar (Far Home 1633). The highest tech level is B at Incal (Far Home 0931) and Saldazar (Far Home 1633). The average technology level is 6 (with most between 2 and 9).
