Rim System


Verbena -- Due to the planet's heavy involvement in the Independents' side of the Unification War, Verbena is scarcely surviving, barely more than a piece of barren rock. Recently, the Alliance has been making an effort to show the population the error of their ways by leading them back into prosperity through government-funded improvements to the planet's economy.

Newhall -- The planet of Newhall has been opened two years ago for standard colonization after the most important terra-forming stuff had been done. But just like any other frontier planet, the terra-forming hasn't changed the once small dead planet into a lush world. It's a dusty, desert like world, where only 20% of the surface consists of ocean/lakes, not much I would say.

Lilac -- Lilac is a planet that has to employ private security firms to protect it. It is the only planet on the Rim that holds the official Alliance bank for this system. (more information needed...)

Silverhold: -- Planet, no further information at this moment

Aberdeen -- Gas Giant

Haven -- Haven is a moon of Aberdeen which was the site of a small mining outpost of some type. For a price, the local inhabitants were willing to provide shelter and the chance for a new beginning for those wishing to remain under the Alliance's radar. The outpost was destroyed by unknown reasons, but this shortly happened before the Miranda message was broadcasted. There are however other small communities who do the same. It's not a rich planet, but at least the inhabitants are welcoming to those who seek a place to hide.

St. Albans -- It's pretty much an ice world, where the temperature rarely goes above zero, snow is seen for much of the year. There's a Fed Station here. The inhabitable parts lie around the equator, if you go up north or down south you'll find yourself in massive mountains, ice and snow and freezing tempratures. Why it is so cold is pretty easy, the largest part of the year Aberdeen is infront of the sun as St. Albans resolves quite weirdly around the big Gas Giant.

Miranda -- At one time Miranda possessed an infrastructure as large and as thriving as anything to be found on a central planet. However, the intentions of the Alliance with this planet weren't all good. Or at least they had their own plans with the inhabitants of Miranda. The whole population became guinea pigs for a chemical known as 'The Pax' which was intended to calm the population and weed out aggression. For the vast majority of Miranda's unfortunate inhabitants, the Pax worked only too well, and millions of people stopped fighting, stopped with petty disputes and then they stopped doing everything else, including stay alive.

However some survived, but the consequences for them were even more horrific. They suffered a reaction to the Pax which was the exact opposite of the intended effect. They became raging, homicidal maniacs who engaged in cannibalism, self-mutilation and torture. In other words, Reavers.

After this, Miranda became a forgotten, inaccessible ghost planet. As in the space around the planet Reavers made their territory, no one dared to come too close when word about Reavers got out. Miranda was considered to be a black rock by the Alliance, and this how it was displayed on all the maps.

But only two months ago word came out what happened on Miranda. A message was found on Miranda by a young women, a scientist, who survived the pax and told what had happend. This message has been broadcasted all throughout the verse on every frequency.
