The Lux System is the new name that was given to our solar system after the Gas Rupture. The Lux System includes the planets of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Bunglonda, Nylis, and Sartak, as well as a large asteroid belt made up of former planets and moons of former planets.

Two empires are locked in a battle for complete control of the Lux System, and there are also a handful of sentient races that inhabit the planets of Lux.
Mercury

Not much is known about this planet, as no one has been able to get close enough to investigate it.

Controlled by: The United Alliance
Native Inhabitants: Unknown
Venus

Not much is known about this planet, as no one has been able to get close enough to investigate it.

Controlled by: The United Alliance
Native Inhabitants: Unknown
Earth

The Earth is the same as our Earth in the modern day is, just united under one official name, The United Alliance. The inhabitants of Earth live fairly ordinary lives and enjoy the future tech that has been developed since World War III.

Locations on Earth

Canadian Frontier
The Canadian Frontier is a harsh, cold environment, showing that no matter what tech is developed, some corners of the world will remain wild. The people who live up here are people who prefer living the rough life, hunting for food, mining ore, and logging their own trees. It’s quite the place to visit if the cold doesn’t bother you.

The Unified America
This region is similar to the region it was before the United Alliance was formed. It is a shining beacon of capitalism, still running tons of corporations and factories. Housing districts, power plants, and other important government-run districts are easily found in this colorful and wealthy area of the UA.

The New Mexican Wasteland
Welcome to science-fiction Spaghetti western world you never knew that you needed. Still, technically apart of the United Alliance, this area is largely ignored and therefore run primarily by the rebels. Drug trades, trafficking, contraband, gangs, shootouts, and walls full of scum to take out for your paycheck is what you find here. Get those steel toed boots on and load your revolver before heading to this dangerous district.

The World Market of China
This district is one of the safest districts on the planet, home to a large trade center of epic proportions where you can find whatever good and oddity you need. Large corporations and rows of warehouses are what you will find in the busier parts of the region though the outskirts are covered with farmers earning their keep with modern technology helping feed the market and grow the economy. Hope your pockets are full of Space Silver when you arrive in this district.

The United Alliance Headquarters
During the Third World War Japan was flattened for not taking sides. After the war, the large island made for a perfect UAHQ and houses most of the important people of the world. Scientists and political leaders spend their time in this beautiful metropolis where outsiders are rarely allowed to step foot. If you are here you are either a military combatant, very lucky, or very important.

Moons

Tellurian Lunar
First colonized by the UA in 2220 AD. Since then, the colony has been thriving at rapid speeds and is the symbol of space exploration in the UA. Inhabitants of Tellurian Lunar are known as Lunarians.


Controlled by: The United Alliance
Native Inhabitants: Humans
Mars

Mars is a dusty, red planet, and the closest somewhat inhabitable planet to Earth, making it the first planet colonized by the United Alliance. The territory of Mars is divided in half between the Alliance and the Imperial Confederacy, with the only shared territory being a large metropolis city that houses people of both factions for trade and peace talks.

Locations on Mars

Kh'are
Kh'are is a large metropolis city on Mars that houses over a billion people. Kh'are is primarily known and political and trading venue, but hundreds of thousands of tourists travel to Kh'are every year, and large businesses love getting land in Kh'are, especially mining companies.

Mining Camps
Throughout Mars, there are hundreds of mining camps set up by different Earth and Nylis coalitions, gathering rare materials and selling them back to their respective governments for profit.

Underground Martian Towns
Below the surface of Mars, the Martians move secretively in little towns they created with their primitive tools. No human has been allowed to set foot in one, but the Martians say that they are very nice and cozy.

Moons

Phobos
Currently colonized by the UA, there have been ongoing debates on whether the ownership of Phobos should go to IC or UA. First Mars colony. Its success is debatable as it turned out to not be a very profitable decision but it has a stable population size. Colonized in 2330.

Deimos
Also colonized by the UA. Recent negotiations have presented the possibility of this colony being given to the IC. Deimos is a small mining colony. Nothing is very notable about this moon. Colonized in 2427.


Controlled by: United Alliance, Imperial Confederacy, Unaligned Martians
Native Inhabitants: Martians
Bunglonda

Bunglonda is a large jungle-filled planet. (WIP, need more plans and ideas for this one!)

Moons

Arosse
Not yet colonized by anyone.

Jerac
Colonized in 2592 by the IC but was abandoned because of rebel resistance. Currently a ruined colony but there are plans for the IC to reclaim Jerac.

Zedi
Formerly colonized by the IC in 2570. Due to the monsters that inhabit this colony, it's been abandoned. There are still little less than a hundred people who inhabit Zedi. The UA plans to colonize Zedi.

Gaban
Claimed by the IC in 2530. Farthest moon from Bunglonda. Has large amounts of a rare mineral deposit. But because of its distance from Bunglonda and other moons, the government doesn't reach this colony as quickly. Thus, many rebels often revolt against the government.


Controlled by: Various bands of peaceful Kaorex.
Native Inhabitants: Kaori
Nylis

Nylis is a mostly barren planet with a small sea called Prosperity Lake where the native peoples lived. The planet has since been taken over and colonized by the Imperial Confederacy.

Locations on Nylis

Imperial Space Base
(WIP. Needs a proper title and more planned info)

Prosperity Lake
A small sea oasis that provided life for the Neriths before they were captured and enslaved by the Imperial Alliance.

Moons

Espia
A lunar colony under the name of the IC, it is a small colony with a massive fishing industry. Espia was founded in 2750 AD.

Na'len
Colonized by the IC in 2446. First Nylis moon to be colonized. Not very populated but Na'len is a center for evidence of the presence of an ancient civilization.

Jamor
Was claimed by the IC in 2490. A colony that is strictly for the use of the Imperial Army. All information regarding Jamor, aside from the military presence, is kept confidential. It is heavily fortified and only those granted special permission from an Imperial official have the authorization to enter the colony.

Oheg
Now under the jurisdiction of the IC. Under a temporary peace agreement, this colony had been licensed off to the UA for 500 years. It was first colonized by the IC in 2505 before being handed off to the UA in 3208 as part of a negotiation term. Oheg is a successful and wealthy but very divided colony. There is a large gap between those who are rich and those who are poor which has caused a rift in the colony. Chances of revolts are high.

Tah'ela

Colonized by the IC in 2604. Not a very remarkable colony on its own but many wealthy people come to this colony in order to flaunt their wealth. Many fancy restaurants, museums, and other places decorate the colony.


Controlled by: The Imperial Confederacy
Native inhabitants: Neriths
Sartak

Sartak is quite a bit smaller than Earth but has similar varied landscapes and biomes atop it. Sartak is inhabited by a primitive reptilian race that lives in groups.

Moons

Sartak I
Colonized by the IC in 2866. Standard colony that is slowly falling apart due to various revolts and rebellions. Many cities on Sartak I are unsafe.

Sartak II
Colonized by the IC in 2912. Nearly decimated due to various fights that took place. Only four cities remain. Many rebels reside on this colony in particular.


Controlled by: Tribes of the Blood Oath
Native Inhabitants: Jarix
