The Neith Rift is the smallest mapped area of the systems in the Skolaris Nebula. It is believed that only an eigth of the system has been explored and reliably mapped. Within this area only one habitable planet has been found, alongside a further two uninhabitable planets. Rumors are abound of a hostile race that once entered the Skolaris Nebula from beyond the Neith Rift, although there is no actual evidence to support this belief. The three planets all appear to have been drawn towards the Skolaris Nebula by its strong gravitational pull, a theory that supports the believed expanse of the Rift's true size.

Nerif - The only inhabitable planet in the Neith Rift, Nerif is a small, harsh but inhabitable world. It's surface is covered almost entirely in unstable oceans, with only one major continent on the entire planet. Though their is sparse ecological life, the high levels of carbon in the atmosphere mean that survival is hard on the planet. Even so a small colony of around 14 million people has grown on Nerif.

Ardun - An enormous, uninhabited rock planet. Nerif's constant below zero temperatures and its low oxygen atmosphere make the planet almost impossible to survive on. Though there are signs that oceans may have once existed on the planet, there have been no signs of life on the planet since its discovery. It's inhabitants are mostly toughened farmers and former Ebonois Expanse citizens.

Verma Delta - A tiny rock planet with a highly concentrated methane atmosphere. There are no signs that live has ever existed on this planet, and it is unlikely that it will ever become inhabitable. It is the furthest planet discovered in the Neith Rift.

The Ebonois Expanse is the buffer between the Neith Rift and explored space. As its name suggest this system is huge in proportion, with hundreds of planets within its domain. Though most have been explored, as many are deemed uninhabitable only a few are worthy of note. The system itself has no central government, but there is an increasing Nueverian Empire presence. The system as a total population of around 34 billion people.

Ebon Prime - A typical garden world. With a rich, pleasant atmosphere and budding ecological systems this planet is a perfect place for habitation. As such, huge colonies have established themselves on the planet which is in the center of the system. As a hub for the system, it has been occupied by the Nueverian Empire and has many outposts and bases situated across its surface. Although not under strict control, it still does not welcome criminals and conflict. It has an approximate population of 1.2 billion people.

Echun - Approximately two thirds of the distance between Ebon Prime and the Neith Rift sits Echun. A carbon dioxide and ethane atmosphere have long size frozen solid, making the surface itself uninhabitable. In efforts to expand into the Neith Rift, however, the Nueverian Empire have established a growing Space Colony in its atmosphere, named EN-1. It has a recorded population of 3 million. Laws are enforced strictly here, but the frequent deliveries make it a welcome target.

Denbaum - A standard methane-ammonia gas-giant that is close to Echun. It is the largest source of fuel in the system, and as such is almost entirely covered with fueling stations run by private companies and firms, whom run various layovers and 'less than acceptable' past-times. It is a frequent stop of for criminals passing between Ebon Prime and Echun, and has a population on 5 million.

Pas - A large moon, Pas has a trace carbon dioxide atmosphere but has very few signs of water on the planet. Due to being roughly equal distance between the Colsa Cluster and the distant Ebon Prime, this planet has been facilitated with a large Space Port by the Nueverian Empire. The port is well-maintained, although passport controls are much more lax than areas closer to the Nueverian Cradle. It has an approximate population of 23 million people.

Colsa Alpha and Beta - Two huge, twin garden worlds that sit on the edge of the Ebonois Expanse, close to the Okanta Verge. Both worlds are heavily populated, and both fall under the Nueverian Empire rule. Combined the planets have an approximate population of 12.4 billion people, with Colsa Beta being the slightly larger of the duo.

The Nueverian Cradle is the point of origin for the expansive Nueverian Remnant. It is small in size, with four inhabited planets, and sits between the Uhia Sea, Ebonois Expanse and the Gordia Expanse. The Cradle has a total population of 63 billion people, and is a highly advanced system.

The Gordia Expanse is around half the size of the Ebonois Expanse, and is controlled by the Nueverian Empire. It has around one hundred planets, half of which are inhabited.

The Boron Hole is an area of uncontrolled space within the Gordia Expanse. It has only two planets, only one of which is inhabited. Despite this, both planets have heavy atmospheric colonies and two large Space Ports sit within this space. The area is controlled entirely by a trio of powerful mercenary groups whom are rumored to have links to the nearby Elirian Remnant. There is an approximate population of 23 billion people.

Uhian Sea is a system that is openly at war with the Nueverian Empire, and sits on the borders of the Nueverian Cradle, the Ahrian Wastes and the Gordia Expanse. It has around fifty-three planets, of which only a few are known to the Nueverian Empire. The Uhian Sea is a collection of state-worlds which have all joined together to fight the growing intrusion of the Nueverian Empire. It has an estimated population of around 82 billion people.

The Okanata Verge is a rival system to those under Nueverian control. It has a total of thirty-eight planets of which twelve are inhabitable. It's ruling body is the Elirian Remnant which is formed of representatives of each planet, and strongly opposes the militarist authority of the Nueverian Empire. A loose truce sits between the two factions, with the border between the Verge and Nueverian space having a heavy military presence on both sides, although travel across it is possible, if ill advised. It has a population of 132 billion people.

The Ahrian Wastes is cut off by a large asteroid belt that enters the Uhia Sea's border. It has absolutely no government interference, and its few planets are almost entirely uninhabitable. As such it has a collection of Space Ports that are run by large mercenary organizations and colonies, all largely free of 'conventional' law. It is a dangerous area of space. It has a population of around 42 billion people.

Nueverian - A race of average humanoids, whom have achieved a high level of technological advancement earlier than their interstellar neighbors. Enthusiastic exploration, greed and a determined government have led to them forging an Empire that spans multiple systems and contains dozens of worlds and billions of people.

Raelin - Humanoids from the Ebonois Expanse. They were at a low stage of technological advancement when the Nueverian Empire arrived in their space, and were simply absorbed by the Empire. They are, on the whole, a loyal race and abide by the laws given to them. They are distributed across the Skolaris System.

Farien - Humanoids whom are native to the Ebonois Expanse. They put up a brief struggle against the initial forces of the Nueverian Empire, but were unable to organize themselves effectively against the invaders. They have since become a part of the Empire, although their race is looked on by many as 'beneath' the other races. Even so, many hold powerful positions of authority.

Uhians - Humanoids whom inhabit the Uhian Sea. They are a collection of different planet-states, and as such are only joined under this title due to their alliance against the Neuverian. There is no single level of technological advancement or culture, although most of the joined states are fairly liberal.

Gordias - Twice the size of the average humanoid, and with twice the bulk behind them. These abnormally large aliens are fairly slow-witted, but are commonly hired as muscle, due to their incredible strength, stamina and being near impervious to getting hurt.

Vangaru - A race of reptilian humanoids whom hail from the Ahrian Wastes. Their inability to mate with other races and their inherent aggression has stifled their populations growth, and their lack of a distinct homeworld means they are often nomadic. Although they are most concentrated in the Ahrian Wastes, Vangaru can be found across the Skolaris Nebula in various roles.

Elirian - A race of orange-skinned humanoids whom are all deaf, and communicate via sing language. Despite this genetic flaw, they are a stable, advanced race and inhabit the Okanata Verge. Due to their lack of military force they are unable to venture beyond their system for fear of the Nueverian Empire, but they do hold a steady border to keep them away. For the moment they hold a loose truce, and can travel beyond their system as civilians. Elirian are rarely found beyond the Gordia Expanse.

Angiaran - A race of dark-skinned humanoid creatures whom are facing the extinction of their race due to their being a nitrogen-based lifeform as opposed to carbon, a much more abundant element. They are a technologically advanced race whom migrated from a distant galaxy in search of nitrogen-rich systems, in the end stumbling upon the Tasiran. Their pursuit of nitrogen lead to them poisoning the atmosphere of many planets, and wiping out most of the systems population. They are an incredibly organized race, and focus heavily on military performance due to their need to move planets regularly. Their most recent move saw them enter the Neith Rift. They have become aware of the bountiful systems beyond

Nueverian Empire - A young, bold and ruthless Empire that has forced itself upon a number of reasons, resulting in many wars, some of which are still going today. The Empire itself is ruled by a succession of monarchy, though the actual day-to-day running of the Empire is left to various departments spread around the systems. The Empire is currently at war with the Uhian Collective, and has a rough ceasfire with the Elirian Remnant.
