=== Tenebrous ===

This is the civilized jumping-off point into the PCs' claimed sector.  The two primary points of interest are Tenebrous III and IV.  Tenebrous IV is a massive Terran Mandate space station.  It was long-dead when discovered, and all human life in the system had in fact apparently been extinguished in the aftermath of the Scream.  People still occasionally find long-mummified bodies in out-of-the-way corners of the station.  State engineers have it up and running again, although they don't entirely understand all of the pretech systems.  The PCs have a lease on a landing bay and some light industrial/office space.<br/><br/>

Tenebrous III is a planet with a burgeoning colony.  The wreckage of the pre-scream settlements have been picked thoroughly clean.  At this time there are five colonies scattered around the planet, essentially one in the most hospitable part of each continent.  The science of terraforming is still badly understood, and this planet is considered a testing-ground for the field.  Biologists are regularly introducing species that are more harmonious with human civilization, and attempting to manage the ecological destabilization that results from adding a few dozen invasive species.  <br/><br/>

Very much a wild-west atmosphere.
