Aadkhien is a non-agricultural, pre-industrial vacuum world, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.

  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • It is unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • Its economy and population are slowly growing and living conditions are expected to improve in the near future barring outside forces.
  • The world has a Data Repository or a centralized collection of information and data.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Cadion Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
  • This world has a nearby Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.
  • It also contains an Imperial Scout Base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
  • This world has a research station, Research Station Alpha (Core), engaged in the scientific pursuit of knowledge.
  • Also known as Reference (Core 0140); as well as Aakhien (First Survey), Encyclopediopolis, and Shiishuusdar (Ziru Sirka).
