==The Petros Systems== The Petros systems consist of two star systems, [[Blue_Giant:Campaign_Sector_Star_Index#Petros_Major|Petros Major]] and [[Blue_Giant:Campaign_Sector_Star_Index#Petros_Minor|Petros Minor]]. Petros Major is unique in the galaxy for being a green sun. Most stars that emit light strongly in the green spectrum appear white, because they also emit light to either side of green in the spectrum, but Petros Major has some sort of energy field / space warp / 'hell knows what' surrounding it. There is a theory that Petros Major is actually energy leaking from hyperspace, but to find out someone would have to get inside the star, which is currently impossible. The other odd thing about Petros is that it has a quintet of planets in the same orbit around the star and each planet has a number of large moons. The system should be very unstable but isn't. There are a number of Cheem ruins on Petros 1. Two hundred years ago, the original inhabitants of Petros Major leased their planet (Petros 1) from a man called Petros for the sum of one bunch of bananas. Petros told them he had staked his claim on both systems (Major and Minor) before they arrived and that the lease was for one planet in that system. He also mentioned that he preferred Petros Minor because 'the light was more Earthlike'. The settlers humoured the madman, signed the contract and let him fade into history. Petros 1 is also noted for the truly terrible dress sense of the locals. The green light from Petros Major washes over the planet every day and affects the colour judgement of the locals. Colours that look good there look dreadful in normal light, and you can always spot a tourist from Petros 1 by their bright metallic taupe/lime/maroon shirts with flared collars, and corduroy bathing shorts. Petros Minor is an orange star identical in every meaningful way to Earth's sun. It has one planet, very earth like, and one moon, similar in size to Earth's moon. The planet is inhabited (as far as anyone can tell) by a race of tall, beautiful people who are unfailingly polite but who do not want visitors. The two hundred drone ships which surround the planet in a net, plus the fifty or so super-heavy plasma turrets based on the moon help them keep their privacy.
