History & Background (Dossier)

Aursis has owned Okefir and Vala since they were initially colonised in the year 57, but more recently it acquired Diam Kani and Siniir Sa. Aursis allegedly has its sights set on Anshar as well. Duchess daMae of Aursis claims that her peoples' presence on so many worlds is necessary to prevent a full-blown Chanestin insurgency from the Dunea Subsector, though many in the Core nobility are sceptical and wary.

World Starport

Aursis has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
