Ra (RAH) and Ratér (rah-TAIR) are mutually-orbiting binary planets in the Cronox System. The two are both marginal for human life but were settled many millennia ago. Rivalry and conflict between the two throughout their history laid the foundation for a series of accords for mutual co-operation, which was the foundation for the

Hyperdriveplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigHyperdrive

Most modern interstellar space travel is achieved using variations on the tachyon transference drive (TTD), variously called the tachyon drive or hyperdrive. This circumvents the laws of mass and energy by “flipping” a vessel travelling at speeds approaching the speed of light into tachyonic particles. These particles have no mass in the convention sense, as they are incapable of interacting with sub-luminal matter. They also travel at the speed of light within their own point of …

Position of Cronox in Syndicate space

Cronox [CRON-ox] is a S-type detached-binary star system consisting of the stars 1GD.Pa-Cordes and 1GD.Pb-Arjos. The two orbit a common barycenter at a sufficient distance for each to have its own independent planetary system. The two stars' orbital planes are at 83 degree angle from each other, which suggests that the two stars originally formed independently o…

It is a gas supergiant, violent and beautiful, with titanic eternal storm systems coloured white and all shades from pale lilac to deep purple. It is a true giant, approximately 2.4 Jovian masses, so big that it causes the

Ma'agah (1GD.Pa9) is the ninth, outermost planet of the star Cordes in the Cronox System. It is a small, cold, dark world of rock and ice with an elliptical orbit, with the planet being pulled towards the binary star Arjos. At aphelion it is twice as far from the sun as at perihelion.

Do'ahplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigDo'ah

Do’ah (DOE-ah) is a small, lilac-white gas giant, the eighth planet of the star Cordes in the Cronox System. It is much smaller than its huge and tempestuous brother Kwato'or (0.26 Jovian-masses).

Do'ah is most likely the only survivor of a number of medium-sized gas world that once circled Cordes, the others having been sucked into the hungry maw of Kwato’or. The planet has storm belts, but since Do'ah is relatively cool, they are simple convection storms coloured blue, red and purple…

Ahtrey is a small terrestrial world, second planet of the star Cordes in the Cronox System.

The surface is mottled green-brown, pocked with crater lakes and shallow, mineral-rich seas thick with mats of simple protozoa. The seas are transient, depending on season and seismic activity.

The Naetherplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigThe Naether

The Naether is a spatial, or perhaps interspatial region between branes. It is technically a null region of zero energy, but in practice its null-space oscillates in multiple planes, generating strange matter that constantly appears and disappears in waves, creating erratic flows of light, gravity and radiation.
