Vinaed-2

August 7, 2011 / added to location / No Comments

Refers to the military space station above the planet Vinaed.  Because many station personnel live on the planet and work on the station, the terms ‘Vinaed’ and ‘Vinaed-2′ have become interchangeable.

Vinaed-2 and its companion planet are located in the Tau system.  Remote and quiet, assignment there is viewed by some as a form of punishment or quarantine, and by others as a statement of trust.  Vinaed-2 is the furthest military installation in Sector 9’s supply chain and the closest to the Sector 10 border.  Establishing the Vinaed-2 base was the humans’ first assignment after joining the Coalition.

Grayson’s father, Alex, was Vinaed-2’s previous commanding officer.

Staff aboard: 5000

Sector 10

August 7, 2011 / added to sector / No Comments

Currently outside of the Coalition’s military grasp, Sector 10 is a region of space characterized by vast and empty expanses peppered with tiny, hazardous systems.  Though some of these systems are suspected to host considerable natural resources, ROI concerns continue to defeat Sector 9 harvesting proposals.

The Ssujak and Oban are the only known sentient species currently inhabiting Sector 10.

Sector 9

August 7, 2011 / added to sector / No Comments

Sector 9 is a galactic segment inhabited by four known species that are direct participants in or protectorates of an allied government called the ‘Coalition’.  Humans outnumber the other sentient species inhabiting Sector 9 and form the bulk of most organizations.
