Elysium
Thin but breathable atmosphere. Sustained physical activity may affect PCs with CON below 9. Temperate climate, mainly large island chains with no native wildlife above animal intelligence. Both the flora and fauna are extremely dangerous to humans. The only outpost is a city called The Clinic (pop 13,000), which floats above the largest island and is owned and operated by Life Extension Technologies (LET). Well-armed and armored teams hired by LET make runs from The Clinic into the forests and jungles of Elysium to retrieve rare ingredients for King Sector's pharmaceutical needs. LET, and by extension Elysium, is part of the Tripartite Consortium.
Empyria
Breathable atmosphere, cold mountainous terrain. Travel outside of major settlements forbidden by local rulers, under penalty of death. Rumors fly that the planet teems with hidden alien ruins located below the ice near the poles. Local police force an extension of the Varangian Guard, pre-Silence royal bodyguards turned mercenaries. The Guard is part of the leadership of the Tripartite Consortium.
Nirvana
Breathable atmosphere, variable cold-to-temperate world. The hub of the Tripartite Consortium, nearly all the trade between the UPC and Union passes through Nirvana's two major spaceports: Kathmandu and El Dorado. The planet also has a thriving mining industry which, while much smaller than any Union operation, processes enough Cryonite and Polydenum to keep the Consortium's freighters running without becoming too indebted to the Caldeans. Nirvana is run like one large Company Town by CryPoly Industries, the third member of the Tripartite Consortium.
