Note
A hydrogen-helium gas giant, Nambu has an extensive ring system but only twenty moons - comparatively few. Its moon Sumiko is the smallest moon known to be tectonically active in the Milky Way, covered by bright fractures. Visitors to Maskawa often take advantage of Nambu's refueling platforms.
Note
A dense rock planet, Maskawa has a thick methane-ammonia atmosphere. Because of its similar conditions to planet Irune billions of years ago when it first formed life, a large university, the Ten-Clan Academy, hosts symposia on the planet's surface. Unfortunately, despite their security precautions, pirates, organ-leggers, and slavers throughout the Terminus Systems have learned that kidnapped students and professors are a source of easy money. This only adds to the university's reputation, as a visit or tenure at the Academy is a clear mark of commitment on any scientific resume.
Note
An Earth-sized planet wrapped in an impermeable haze of carbon dioxide and ash, Karumto is an unforgiving place. Earthquakes, volcanic gases, and shrouds of dust have prevented any major settlements. Its sulfurous crust has yet to produce resources of interest.
Note
A hydrogen-helium gas giant, Kobayashi has a faint ring system. A "rust belt" of decrepit refueling stations and abandoned habitats on its moons have attracted mercenaries, fugitives, and other ne'er-do-wells. Living a hand-to-mouth existence with no garden planet supplying them, they trade helium-3 fuel and recycled waste products to survive. Kidnapees from Maskawa are typically brought to Kobayashi to be released or sold as chattel to out-of-system slavers.
TRAVEL ADVISORY: Law enforcement authorities of Maskawa categorically state that their effective range does not extend as far as Kobayashi. A statistically significant number of distress signals have been broadcast from within the one-million-kilometer mark of Kobayashi. Civilian traffic is not advised.
Note
A large Venusian hothouse, Sakata's rough weather and active magnetosphere have a reputation for confounding or destroying space probes launched to investigate it. What has been discovered is that its dense atmosphere is largely carbon dioxide and sodium, and its surface; lime. Its magnetosphere suggests an iron-rich core, but its heavy gravity precludes most development.
