• This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or above the standard for Charted Space.
• This is a temperate world, with a climate of pleasant, average temperatures, considered to be an ideal or near-ideal environment by many different sophont species.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Harlequin Subsector of Solomani Rim Sector in the Domain of Sol.
• It has a protectorate in nearby Miskatonic (Solomani Rim 2603).
