Valmora
White Dwarf · Sector C1
Small but incredibly dense stellar core with intense gravity. Extreme gravitational fields may affect navigation systems.
Two asteroid belts ring the system, one inside the other. Which stations, gates and relays stand here changes hour by hour, as the factions contest the galaxy.
Valmora
- Valmora Omega Arid moon with sand-covered plains and rocky mesas. Aggressive locals pose a significant threat to unauthorized vessels. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
Theta Lyrae IX
- Theta Lyrae IX III Pristine ice world with potential for water extraction operations. Allied territory with favorable trade agreements and docking privileges. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Major trade hub with extensive merchant networks and market opportunities.
- Theta Lyrae IX VII Solid rocky satellite with mineral-rich surface deposits. Aggressive locals pose a significant threat to unauthorized vessels. Limited technological development restricts communication and trade options. Scientific installations offer data, analysis, and technological insights.
Alpha XI
- Alpha XI Chi Crystalline moon with subsurface oceans beneath the ice shell. First contact protocols recommended for initial diplomatic engagement. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Resource extraction operations provide raw materials and fuel supplies.
- Alpha XI Beta Barren moon where water is scarce but other resources may be abundant. Independent territory with standard diplomatic protocols. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Scientific installations offer data, analysis, and technological insights.
- Alpha XI Omega Dense rocky body with exposed metallic formations. Diplomatic neutrality offers opportunities for all factions. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Research facilities may provide advanced technology and upgrades.
Omega IV
- Omega IV Omicron Cratered moon featuring valuable ore veins and mining potential. Uncharted territory with unknown political affiliations and intentions. Emerging technology base offers potential for technological exchange. Resource extraction operations provide raw materials and fuel supplies.
- Omega IV IX Cratered moon featuring valuable ore veins and mining potential. Uncharted territory with unknown political affiliations and intentions. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Scientific installations offer data, analysis, and technological insights.
- Omega IV X Asteroid-like moon with significant geological activity. Established diplomatic ties provide security and commercial opportunities. Advanced spaceflight capabilities enable regular interstellar commerce. Service-oriented economy provides excellent facilities for crew rest and recreation.
Kethis III
- Kethis III VI Arid moon with sand-covered plains and rocky mesas. Aggressive locals pose a significant threat to unauthorized vessels. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
- Kethis III Nu Dense rocky body with exposed metallic formations. Allied territory with favorable trade agreements and docking privileges. Advanced spaceflight capabilities enable regular interstellar commerce. Research facilities may provide advanced technology and upgrades.
Rho III
Wormholes
- Lambda Orionis VI Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector B1, the Lambda Orionis VI system: a strong, steady throat. Compact star representing the final stage of stellar evolution.
- Phi III Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector C0, the Phi III system: a strong, steady throat. High-energy star creating spectacular nebular formations.
- Taraxis IX Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector C2, the Taraxis IX system: an unsteady throat that comes and goes. Ancient stellar body with billions of years of remaining fuel.
- Gamma Centauri VII Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector D1, the Gamma Centauri VII system: a strong, steady throat. Dense stellar remnant slowly cooling over cosmic time.
Phenomena
- Pulsar C1-438 A spinning neutron star sweeping twin beams of radiation across the system. Nothing is built near it, and pilots keep out of the beams' reach.
Relays
- Survey log, Alpha XI Chi: Crystalline moon with subsurface oceans beneath the ice shell.
- Recovered log, drive failure off Valmora: 'Holding orbit. Life support at forty percent. If anyone hears this, we're on the inner lane.'
- Nadir Collective proclamation: sector C1 is under the protection of the Nadir Collective. Trade freely; fly lawfully.
- Nadir Collective proclamation: sector C1 is under the protection of the Nadir Collective. Trade freely; fly lawfully.
- Intel brief, Theta Lyrae IX: Established diplomatic ties provide security and commercial opportunities. Limited technological development restricts communication and trade options. Manufacturing capabilities offer repair services and equipment procurement.
- Survey log, Valmora: Demon-class planet where even advanced technology struggles to survive.
- Survey log, Omega IV IX: Cratered moon featuring valuable ore veins and mining potential.
- From the Odyssey: we call at every station in Valmora on our circuit. Dock under way; we'll match your speed.
- Nav advisory: Valmora is a white dwarf. Extreme gravitational fields may affect navigation systems.
- Survey log, Kethis III: Apocalyptic landscape of molten rock and radioactive wastelands.
- Nadir Collective proclamation: sector C1 is under the protection of the Nadir Collective. Trade freely; fly lawfully.
- Survey log, Alpha XI: Temperate planet with breathable atmosphere and abundant water resources.
- Intel brief, Rho III: Non-aligned locals keep to cautious but fair trade. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Resource extraction operations provide raw materials and fuel supplies.
