C-110

Approximately 2,5 kiloparsecs away from the Sun, located somewhere between the Orion and Perseus Arms of the Milky Way galaxy, the Colonies, humanity's first interstellar empires, span throughout the reaches of the small, but very dense C110 star cluster. The current version of the C-Atlas (which excludes large parts of Gallia) counts 124 surveyed systems of which 56 are under control of the House governments (not counting the Nación Maltesa and Imperio del Corsario) and 67 are not.

Nebulae

Inside the Crow Nebula.

C-110 is the home of many large and small nebulae, the largest of them being the Crow Nebula, the Walker Nebula, the Barrier and the mysterious Edge Nebula. While all but the Edge Nebula have been thoroughly mapped, traveling through C-110's nebulae can still be quite dangerous; they often contain dangerous pockets of radiation, explosive gases and deadly asteroids, and they also make perfect hiding places for the many pirate and terrorist organizations of Sirius as scanner and radio waves often have great difficulties penetrating them and the poor visibility inside the clouds hides them from plain sight. Adventurous Freelancers are advised to read and understand our guide to the many hazards they may encounter on their trips before leaving the mostly secure House systems and venturing into the uncleared depths of C-110's nebulae.

Beyond the Colonies

Sol

The fate of the Sol System, humanity's war-torn cradle, is largely unknown to the inhabitants of the Colonies, however it is presumed that it now is completely under Coalition control. It consists of 8 planets, one of them habitable, the others partly colonized at the time the Sleeper Ships departed to C-110, and one bright G2V-class star which gives the system it's name. Since the foundation of the Colonies, no contact has been made with ships coming from the Sol system and another war with the Coalition seems highly unlikely, given the sheer distance between Sol and C-110.
