Eos Exodus is a Luddic Church system with an additional Independent market.

Eos Exodus, White Dwarf

Eos Exodus
The beginning of the end for most stars, the white dwarf was once a red giant not massive enough to fuse carbon. Extremely dense and slowly radiating away its heat as it no longer undergoes fusion reactions, its volume is supported against gravitational collapse only by electron degeneracy pressure.

–In-Game Description

  • Center of the Eos Exodus System

Phaosphoros (Eos Exodus I), Gas Giant

Eos Exodus I: Phaosphoros
Anomalously close to its parent star, this gas giant probably formed in the outer system and later migrated inward due to a chance encounter with some rogue cosmic mass. Primarily composed of hydrogen and helium gasses, the temperature and pressure at the core are extreme.

–In-Game Description

  • Planetary Conditions
    • Note that as an uninhabited world, Phaosphoros will have a range of market conditions that changes between playthroughs.
    • As a Gas Giant, it will always contains a randomly generated amount of volatiles.
    • Gravity high.png
      High Gravity: +50% hazard rating & -10% accessibility.
    • Hazard Rating: 150%+
  • Orbits Eos Exodus
  • Orbited by an asteroid belt

Lucifer (Eos Exodus I-A), Volcanic World

Eos Exodus I-A: Lucifer
A geologically unstable planet without a permanently formed crust. Glowing fissures and active volcanoes litter the surface, the magma they spew forth combining to form flows that travel hundreds of kilometers across the charred surface.

–In-Game Description

Tartessus (Eos Exodus II), Arid World, Luddic Church

Eos Exodus II: Tartessus
Seat of the local branch of the Luddic Church and economic center of the system. The quiet cosmopolitan centers of Tartessus housing the Eos Exodus Curia are clustered around calm, warm seas. The world's population is dominated by Luddic practitioners of various sects and, while large, is mostly rural and agrarian, eking out a generally devout existence through subsistence farming and export of handcrafts.

–In-Game Description

An old, dry world that has a much smaller percentage of water in its atmosphere than terran standard. No active plate tectonics; highly eroded mountains and silted shallow seas. The atmosphere and magnetic field protect the surface from stellar radiation. The most accessible mineral resources were mined in a flurry of rapacious industrialism shortly after discovery.

  • Orbits Tartessus

Makeshift Sensor Array

Makeshift Sensor Array
Built using the best technology available in the Sector, a makeshft sensor array is nonetheless capable of passively monitoring the entire star system and has a transmitter capable of real-time, faster-than-light data transmission to friendly fleets within. The data is useful to supplement the regular sensor readings made by fleets.

  • Orbits Eos Exodus as Tartessus' L3 trojan

Baetis (Eos Exodus II-L4), Barren-Bombarded World, Independent

Eos Exodus II-L4: Baetis
A dwarf-planet from the outer system captured in the L4 of Tartessus, clouds of volatiles evaporate from the battered surface of this world. The weathered infrastructure left from the initial colonization of the system has been re-settled by a lively population of out-of-system nonbelievers and dissidents exiled from Tartessus. The spaceport itself operates under a military administration sponsored by the Knights of Ludd, who collect tithes from commercial activity.

–In-Game Description

Ad-holos sprout around the landing bays proclaiming joyful, tasteless wickedness available for travelers who wish to decompress, for even here the moral framework of the Church rules, albeit profitably inverted. Even the Faithful benefit, for those who do visit here on business or proselytization can make a great demonstration of denying the fleshpots of Baetis.

Hesperus (Eos Exodus III), Rocky Ice World, Luddic Church

Eos Exodus III: Hesperus
An ice-world with a thin, cold atmosphere, industrial terraforming of the planet was halted around the time of Luddic takeover of the Eos Exodus system. Virtue may be found in hardship and the Knights embrace this hardship in the martial monastic communities scattered on the surface of Hesperus. Limited organics mining is permitted with contracts awarded exclusively to the Faithful. The administration of Ceyx and Hesperus is shared in the office of a single Presbyter Orbis.

–In-Game Description

Monasteries cling to particularly sublime rifts and promontories of volcanic shields and the occasional pluton that's forced itself through the world-wrapping crust of ice. These forbid outside visitors - particularly the unfaithful - without dispensation of the knights. However, by authority of the reigning Presbyter Orbis, a number of special economic zones on the shifting ice floes transmit civilian landing beacons to call outside traders to port.

–Secondary Description

Ceyx (Eos Exodus III-A), Barren-Bombarded World

Eos Exodus III-A: Ceyx
A captured dwarf planet which holds the largest concentration of military facilities in the Eos Exodus system. The Knights have appropriated and extended vast subsurface ship facilities, armories, barracks, and all the training, administration, and housing facilities one would expect of the home of the Luddic Armada. The administration of Ceyx and Hesperus is shared in the office of a single Presbyter Orbis.

  • Notes
    • Extension of the Hesperus
    • Due to the above fact, this planet can't be colonized.

Daedaleon (Eos Exodus III-B), Irradiated World, Luddic Church

Eos Exodus III-B: Daedaleon
Site of a former research base operated by the Tri-Tachyon Corporation, a massive containment failure released a highly energetic and seemingly self-sustaining process or object which melted into the crust leaving a plume of strange radiation which spews exotic particles to this day. The moon is abandoned of all human activity but for a network of orbiting hazard beacons maintained by the Knights of Ludd.

  • Planetary Conditions
  • Orbits Hesperus
  • Marked with a warning beacon
  • This planet can't be colonized.

Hesperus Relay

Hesperus Relay
A Domain-era technology used primarily on the frontier, this is a hyperwave communications array which transmits and receives data between star systems at faster-than-light speeds. The rapidly pulsing hyperwaves suitable for FTL data transmission have been shown to damage DNA so these relays are always stationed away from habitats.

Eos Exodus Gate
A solid ring of adamantine material, derelict of a former age.
