Ilelish Sector is a strong Imperial core sector, a bastion of largely Vilani values, and a strong economic powerhouse with a significant population.
- It is noted for the presence of the Great Rift, a significant defensive barrier.
Description (Specifications)
Ilelish Sector is the home of a number of powerful races, peoples, and influential nobles. Interstellar commerce and trade are quite rich in much of this region. This astrographic area boasts of an impressive growth rate and quality of life.
Astrographic Features & Trade Routes
The following astrographic and commercial data regarding the sector has been determined:
- The rimward edge of the sector is a rift density region.
- The brightest star in the sector is the unstable red giant primary of the Eralt system.
- Important trade routes within the region include the Great Ilelish Main and the Gushemege Main.
- The Vilani Main crosses the very spinward-coreward edge of the sector.
Stellar Distribution
A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Ilelish Sector.
- 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 sector and far beyond.
Rifts & Voids
The sector lies on the trailing side of the Great Rift.
- The rift hinders travel and commerce within the region.
- It has placed a boundary on Imperial settlement and expansion within the area.
- Due to its position relative to the Rift, the region is sometimes referred to as being Within The Claw[1].
A basic map showing the general extent of the Great Rift.
(Chart sourced from Traveller Map.)
The nature and limits of the rift may be determined by different criteria in different regions.
- Generally, its boundaries are based on jump performance.
- Areas may traditionally be considered rift regions, even though all of their worlds are accessible to ships equipped with high performance drives.
World Listings
Comprehensive Second Survey UWP data for all worlds lying within the sector is available.
- The primary source material for all data is Traveller Map.
- Other sources may contain contradictory or incorrect information.
Note that some Second Survey data, though only 40 years old, is likely to be out of date.
- Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
- Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.
- Verified updated data is constantly sought.
Economic Astrography
Corporations active here include the following:
- Bikirru Planetary Engineering: A Suerrat corporation that designs and implements microbes to assist in terraforming specific worlds.
- Dozite-Godu Designer Pets and Companions: A Suerrat corporation that creates genetically engineered animal companions to specific client briefs.
- Ilelish Free Trade Group: A loose, decentralised alliance of smaller producers and manufacturers.
- Llelish Interstellar Information Interchange, a news and media organization which keeps close tabs on the activities and personal lives of the rich and titled.
- Zagshiir Industries: A heavy industrial concern, with foundries and production facilities on several worlds in the spinward part of the sector.
A number of trade routes exist within this area. Of these, the most important are:
The Great Ilelish Main
The Great Ilelish Main has 104 member worlds and runs between Verge and Ilelish Sectors.
(Chart sourced from Traveller Map)
- Worlds lying on the Main are highlighted in green.
- Dlan, the capital of the Domain of Ilelish, is marked in red.
The Gushemege Main
The Gushemege Main has 213 member worlds and runs between Gushemege, Dagudashaag, Zarushagar, and Ilelish Sectors.
- Worlds lying on the Main are highlighted in green.
History & Background (Dossier)
Before the Vilani arrived here, the Suerrat had built the Suerrat Republic, a fledgling interstellar empire based upon democratic values, which was reduced to a subject state within a few decades as the Consolidation Wars began. However, while the Vilani certainly conquered the area, those early Vilani conquerors were kinder than most and left behind a legacy of positive institutions that survives to this day.
- The Suerrat eventually took to being a subordinate polity within larger interstellar empires and developed their own government within larger governments, which has now been a successful practice for several millennia. The Suerrat now thrive and their merchants range the lengths of the Imperium, and all in spite of a generalized prejudice against what many mainstream humans feel is an atavistic appearance.
- The Graytch were later comers, but have long been a peaceful part of the region.
Native Sophonts
The following races (sophont species) are believed to have originated within this area:
- Humaniti (Human races)
- Suerrat of Ilelish: a short, strong, hirsute, homely Minor Human Race that had a multi-world pre-jump drive civilization prior to contact with the still expanding and exploring Vilani. The Suerrat would use purchased Jump Drive to rival the Vilani before being subjugated and becoming part of the Ziru Sirka.

Demographics
Significant populations of the following sophont races reside within this sector:
- Humaniti (Human Races)
- Mixed heritage (Major Race): broadly distributed across the sector.
- Solomani (Major Race): broadly distributed across the sector.
- Suerrat of Ilelish: mostly concentrated within a broad region sometimes referred to Suerrat Space, but small communities may be found across the sector.
- Vilani (Major Race): broadly distributed across the sector.
- Non-Human Races
- Chirpers, said to have originated on Eskayloyt, a mythical homeworld located in an unknown sector (Minor Race): inhabiting Zhiphar, in Shudash Subsector. They were transplanted to the world, supposedly by the Ancients, for reasons that remain unknown. They now rarely leave their world.
- Droyne, said to have originated on Eskayloyt, a mythical homeworld located in an unknown sector (Major Race): inhabiting Copyn, in Lyystra Subsector, Mulyosh, in Desta Subsector and Rayaloybex, in Miitan Subsector. They were transplanted to these worlds by the Ancients, for reasons that remain unknown. Merchants and couriers may be encountered across the sector.
- Graytch of Liigash, in Gushemege Sector: large non-humanoid sophonts with a vaguely insectoid appearance.
