Astrography and planetology[edit]

Mai is a member of the Dagudashaag Main.

Mai is an astronomical curiosity (Some might even say an anaomaly) and extremely unpleasant to boot. It is trapped between its twin stars, which orbit around the world. Two planetoids belts beyond the stars and two small moonless gas giants orbit beyond them. The gravity and EM activity of the stars make travel to the central world be difficult, and Mai is rarely visited.

Temperatures on the worlds are high and there is extreme volcanism. There is one small northern polar lake, the only free-standing water on the surface.

History and background[edit]

The northern polar lake is the location of the main colony. Almost all of the population are ethnic Ziadd. Life is brutal and spartan, and adequate water is considered a luxury.

Mai also serves as a Ziadd prison colony, housing category Alpha prisoners in a facility directly under the southern pole.

Urbanization[edit]

Ziadd structures tend to be solid and blocky and are usually heavily decorated. Many fly flags and banners declaring allegiance and status.
