Omicron Minor Edge Nebula
The Edge nebula is an immense looming cloud that occupies almost half of the Omicron Minor system. Once used as a screen by the secretive organisation known as the Order to protect their adopted homeworld, it now serves as a mass graveyard for all those lost during the Battle of Omicron Minor and the devastation of planet Toledo.
Asteroid Fields
Azurite Gas
AZURITE GAS
Azurite is a key component in Hybrid Technology - a special case discovered only recently in Sirius. This gas has properties which give humans a working method to replicate at least basic functions performed automatically from the interior of Nomad bodies. Azurite while in its standard form is an odorless gas which has very little notable oddities besides a slight toxicity and an average conductivity rate for a gas. Because of the seemingly normal traits, it was not thought to be terribly remarkable until specific experimentation was attempted.
When energy is refined into a constant voltage and current, Azurite begins to absorb the energy; the molecules begin reacting drastically and begin to bounce around in the containment system. If exposed to any sort of high-energetic matter, such as Plasma, the Azurite infuses immediately. The notable property of the new infusion is that it likes to keep its state. For example, if the Plasma was spinning in a certain shape or form, once infused it will keep the motion and shape until either the infused gas is changed automatically by the energetic matter, or forced apart by perhaps an impact."
By far the most lucrative known source of Azurite Gas is an alien structure rumored to exist in the immensely dangerous Omicron Delta Edge Nebula. According to rumor, energies radiating from within the structure convert the resident minor alien organisms inhabiting the nebula by over-infusing them with energies; this causes them to vaporize into freely-floating gaseous Azurite.
Toledo Graveyard
>>>WARNING: SEVERE DANGER<<<
A disc formed from planetary fragments, scrap and derelict ships from the second Battle of Toledo led to the appearance of a sort of unspoken "no man's land". A shameful memorial for both the Order's and the Core's fleets, the graveyard continues to grow in size. Both sides appear to be too occupied with one another to conduct any salvage operations on a large scale, meaning that so long as the conflict continues and due to the danger that even a Junker wouldn't think twice about risking, the field will remain for the indeterminate future.
The sheer amount of scrap metal attracts the occasional odd scavenger, liable to join the silent fleet of wrecks. With the crossfire between the Order and Core still churning above the dead planet and Nomads attacking everyone without discrimination, Omicron Minor is one of the most dangerous places to be in the entire Sirius Sector.

Red Sand - E-6/5
Recovering log partitions.
Arthur Kilpatrick here... my wing, along with a few others managed to sneak out of the encirclement and we have been doing hit and run attacks on the Nomads from the rear, near the Alien Gate. It hasn't been working too well... There are just two of us left. Minor seems oddly quiet, no transmissions coming, and I'm sure I saw a flash of light a little while back... what is that? Jason, give me a reading... heads up, looks a lot of nomads headed this way, you've been the best wing a man could get... let's do our best.
The recording clips in between, then resumes.
Jason is down. My ship is disabled, life support systems failing, so I'm done for. Nomads are going through the gate. I think all of them... Wait, something else is there... What the hell is that...
The recording abruptly ends in a clutter of static here.
Contains:
- 15x Shield Battery
- 15x Nanobots
- 5x Nomad Fighter Remains
Core Battlecruiser - E/D-4/5
Islington - C-4/3
In 806 AS Richard Winston Tobias, Esq., bet Edison Trent half a million credits that he would come all the way from Leeds to Toledo in a Clydesdale freighter - alone and without escort. The freighter of choice was Islington, heavily modified ship that belonged to Tobias for years. Surprisingly, the Islington survived the long journey to Omicron Minor, and Tobias was very near to reaching his goal. However, not far from Toledo the ship was damaged by a small asteroid. Tobias survived and called for help; luckily enough, an Order patrol was nearby and rescued him shortly before Nomads arrived at the scene. Trent was reluctant to pay, but finally agreed in exchange for a promise that Tobias would never never leave Bretonia alone again.
Contains:
- 2x Heavy Starbeam
- 4x Adv. Flashpoint Turret
- 5x Shield Battery
- 5x Nanobots
Nefertiti - D/C-4/5
The cargo manifest of the ship shows an array of Nomad artifacts of various types. One had been stored in a seperate container for some reason. Ship scans reveal all of the artifacts as still on the ship, the ones not present floating in space. Only one artifact cannot be accounted for, the one in the seperate container. The nomads seem to have targeted first the engines, then the cargo bay of the transport, then ignored it, as judging from the state of the bridge and other parts of the ship. The bodies of the pilots are still on board, preserved in space
Contains:
- 2x Heavy Starbeam
- 4x Adv. Flashpoint Turret
- 20x Artifacts
- 5x Shield Battery
- 5x Nanobots
