Uborous is a small system residing in an area just outside fringespace, A particularly empty area, Uborous is a Binary star system in which three particularly barren planets reside, However all three extremely rich in terms of minerals. Commonly Iron, Gold, Silver, And Uranium. The three planets; all at this point in time populated and running trade routes amongst themselves orbit around a Red Dwarf star, and a crystallized White dwarf star (Named Kent, And Huxley). There are much smaller planetoids residing in between the thin asteroid belts (Total of three. Each meeting in certain points), As well as a particularly large one, that is not even named used as a listening outpost, As well as a communications and trade center. Uborous is a well known center for Slave Trade, and “Hiring” researchers and buying the things they happen to come up with, Each of the planets having at least one area for hire.

The system is home to a quite degraded form of Human, being bred by the commanding governments to be weaker, easier to control and easier to keep under wraps. As well as being quite a bit shorter. (Average height can be around 5’10” for even grown men in the civilian populace.) The Military, Security, and higher powers however are completely dissimilar, in fact have gone many years with genetic enhancements bred into the separate populace in some areas.


Tartarus
Tartarus is the closest of the three populated planets in the system to their stars, In fact it is tidally locked, And subsequently uninhabitable on the face turned to Kent. However the exact opposite happens with it’s other half, which is near-completely frozen at all time. A relatively smooth surface, it’s temperature contrasts made Tartarus near-impossible to even land on, and was left for some time before even being colonized. It acts as a “Prison”, A Primary Trade hub, the holding grounds for slaves. Researchers here work in the areas of weaponry and Bluespace at this moment in time. Most, If not all of these things take place in the relatively friendly and open underground areas, along with the small above-ground domes of which are pretty much villages all interconnected in one way or another.

Axsis
Axsis is the center for Medical research, and Biological research in general, As well as high quality robotic engineering (Mechatronic and Biomechanical).. or so it’s said. All of this takes place in the elusive underground of which is usually sealed off to visitors. Only the Aboveground and high atmosphere platforms, Or the orbital platforms are open and prepared to allow any outsiders onto them, But even getting onto the surface carries a hefty Fee, escalating to thousands of credits. Axsis itself is a mountainous and storm ravaged planet, A constant of solid hail, wind speeds dwarfing those anywhere else to be found in the system. The atmosphere is thick, tinted a deep grey, and hints of a light brown, On the actual surface it is near impossible to see due to the fact that it’s nearly always in a state of perpetual night as such. It’s to be noted that speaking of the Underground is treated as taboo, However rumors of harsh conditions, public executions, and rioting met with full lethal force, are wide spread.


Sanctum
Sanctum is a small, very cold, And very insignificant place in relation to it's larger neighbors, however. it is the main hub for the Slave Trade within the system. Sanctum contains cloning vats which are used to clone degraded Humans, and train them to do different tasks. They are then exported for imports of researchers, money, technology, and support in areas of Security. They also export large amounts of food and water, having a large supply of both (Underground gardens, and “Producing” water, As well as using their own imported supply.))

A fairly peaceful place; anyone can make what they want of it as long as they’re not going to get in trouble with the presiding government. Most Notably the Stilt Walkers, The Stilt suits themselves produced by Axsis and exported, These powered suits, Even if they happen to be quite weak are cheap to make and even easier to use, As well as the weaponry it packs being relatively high quality. Lawbreaking is not taken lightly. Most crimes are punished by death. Drugs and other contraband are usually traded for more useful items.
