Vald is a non-industrial world located in Vald Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector. The system is a member of the Solomani Confederation and has been assigned an Amber Zone travel advisory.
While Vald’s very dense oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere makes its surface uninhabitable, a rich ecosystem has developed on a few high mountain plateaus and in the upper air, where the pressure is equivalent to a standard atmosphere. Its most advanced native life forms are the floating blimp-like zephyr hives and the myriads of smaller flyers that nest amongst them. These include the fierce winged valrocs, whose flocks seem to exist in a symbiotic relationship with the zephyr hives.
In the 1060s a team of Macrogenesis xenologists discovered a particular exotic hormone within valroc brains that could be used as natural psi-drug, kicking off a lucrative market.
