C7 System

From Bubberstation Wiki

Brief Primer

The C7 system proper is the titleholder of 'most infamous system' within the Galactic Federation. C7 proper is the focal point of the Inter-Corporate Shadow War, as record amounts of plasma gets mined from Indecipheres, Freyja and Arkanis, shipped to Nanotrasen's local logistics network and sent for refining on Adasta, or shipped to Syndicate Conglomerate brokers, and smuggled out of system to be refined with Cybersun's industrial engines. That is not to discount the vast amount of ongoing research and other commerce that the system has come to foster, as the anomalous spatial phenomena unique to C7 proper hold both quantities of vast energy and secrets which may yet revolutionize the Known Galaxy as a whole... or at least the highest bidder.

Adasta

Adasta is the premier urbworld of C7, colloquially known as "Adasta Sector" due to its size. Known for the largest nightclub in Solar space, the Thunderdrome, Adasta also sports a massive refinery complex spanning at least 25% of its total landmass, dedicated primarily to the refining of plasma. After a significant colonization effort by the Terran government, its population numbers in the billions. The Security department's gas masks are also produced in Adasta, as they are meant to protect law enforcement from breathing in plasma fumes. The name is a bastardization of "Ad Astra," Latin for "To The Stars," in reference to its use as a plasma mining hub and jump-off point for fleets headed to the far colonies.

Life is Loud.

Mungo

St. Mungo is a Jungle planet primarily known for its intense ionospheric storms that disrupt long-range communications. Home to many corporate blacksites, St. Mungo is a staging ground for corporate elements and generally seedy activity. Its unique weather patterns and relative isolation from the rest of the system makes it perfect for corporatists and independent actors alike. The St. Mungo government, notoriously inefficient, operates out of its capital, Macaw, and is named after the famed explorer Andrea Mungo.

Gerlach Jump

A gas giant in C7, the Gerlach Jump is named after the TSS Gerlach, the first vessel to make use of its extensive atmospheric refueling ports on its way to the Far Colonies.

Minor Planetary Bodies

Indecipheres

Originally meant to be named "Fredonia," an intern working for the Terran government spilled coffee over the documents they were transcribing. Thus, they elected to name this planetoid "Indecipheres," from Indecipherable. The planet itself is extremely hostile, yet resource rich, leading to a thriving mining industry that exists as the center of the Corporate shadow war. Frequently shifting tectonic plates keep minerals fresh under the surface of Indecipheres.

Freyja

Freyja is an ice cold moon located on the far side of Indecipheres, in its orbit, and is home to streaming plasma rivers across most of its surface, as well as underground. It is known for colonids-- a plasma-based fungus that feeds off of burning plasma fumes.

Arkanis

The opposite hemisphere of Freyja is a sand-caked, hot hell. Known as the Arkanis desert of Freyja, it suffers from toxicity due to sandstorms and residual waste gasses from evaporating plasma.
