History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

In 695, The Protectorate granted independence to its colony worlds in Taemerlyk Subsector, which form the Union of Garth.

The most coreward system of the Union in Uldor's Reach, Agravaine serves as a hub for coreward traffic bound to Quitalos, a Protectorate system.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Agravaine 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.
