The most technologically advanced independent world in the Empty Quarter sector, Turley (Empty Quarter 2523) sits along the middle of the Saeghvung-Turley-Exile Run, where it profits greatly as the only planetfall for non-military vessels for weeks in both directions. Until the Deep Space Stations began to be deployed, Turley was a very isolated world, perfect for the special needs of the Verrada Turley Foundation. Classified by Imperial authorities as a Eugenics Cult, the Foundation colonized Turley in an effort to create their own version of utopia through the manipulation and control of their population's genome. While native citizens suffer a greater level of restriction than visitors, the Foundation has changed its policy on isolationism, recognizing visitors as an excellent resource for Credits, which in turn supports the Foundation's pursuit of scientific elitism.
