It is a member of Third Imperium in the Five Sisters Subsector of Spinward Marches Sector and in the Domain of Deneb.

Astrography & Planetology

Jone is a member of the Spinward Main. It is a member of the Sister's Reach. The bright supergiant star Deneb is visible in Jone's sky even during the daytime.

Jone’s civilization perches atop a number of mountains as the valleys have a rich mix of some very unpleasant gases. Occasionally these gases are disturbed by high winds, bringing them into contact with people. This possibility of mild to severe poisoning gives the world its amber zone qualification.
