- It was once named Excalibur Subsector and is also widely known as Mazu Subsector.
Description (Specifications)
The following astrographic and commercial data has been determined regarding Fortuna Subsector:
Astrographic Features
The subsector is a generally unremarkable frontier area lying within the Solomani Confederation.
- It is a low stellar density region.
- The brightest star is the white main sequence primary of the Despin system.
Stellar Distribution
A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Fortuna 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.
(Chart sourced from Traveller Map)
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
The subsector contains three rift regions: the Fortuna Rift, the Despin Rift, and the Bautzen Void.
(Chart sourced from Traveller Map)
Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic and commercial concept based on Jump Drive performance.
- Most commercial vessels typically use Jump Drives capable of Jump-3 or less.
- Areas that cannot be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels are denoted as rifts.
- Rifts represent a considerable obstacle to interstellar trade and commerce.
World Listing
Comprehensive Second Survey data for all worlds that lie within Fortuna Subsector is available.
- The primary source material for all data is Traveller Map.
- Other sources may differ: some elements of the data may be contradictory or incorrect.
- Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:
Note that some Second Survey data, though only 40 years old, may already be out of date.
- Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.

Driving this interstellar trade are no Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, no Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Fortuna maintain four Naval bases and four Military bases. The average technology level is 10 (with most between 6 and 13). The highest technology level is 14 at Despin (Neworld 2815) and Zera (Neworld 3013).
