THE ELROOD SECTOR
Elrood Sector is a backwater corner of the Metharian Nebula Territories region of the Empire. The sector is fairly isolated and even today, millenia after the areaâs initial colonization, large tracks of the sector remain unexplored.
History:
Elrood Sector was settled long ago, with its economic development fueled by mining ventures. However, the âboom daysâ are long gone. In recent years, the sector has fallen on hard times, with most planets trading only with other worlds on the sector. This area is held by the Empire and the sectorâs citizens are extremly fearful of Imperial reprisals and crackdowns.
Randell Mining Corporation (RMC):
Radell is the econimic powerhouse of the Elrood Sector. Founded during Elroodâs most profitable days, RMC is the largest employer in the sector and owns several mining planets. Although the company is a marginal player compared to the galaxyâs major mining conglomerates, RMC has tremendous influence in this area of space.
Imperial Mining Ldt. (IML):
A young mining company founded by retired Imperial navy personell, IML is quickly swallowing up Radellâs marked share.
The Empire:
While Elrood Sector can be said to be free of the Empireâs harshest policies, the specter of Imperial domination is at the back of every citizenâs mind. Under the control of Moff Villis Andal, Imperial forces have managed to intimidate most of the sector into submission. Moff Andal has shown no hesitation in using brutal tactics to supress dissent and rebellion.
The Drift:
The Drift is a huge stellar gas cloud that presents a major hazard to hyperspace navigation. No routes are known through The Drift.
Degan Gas Clouds:
The Degan Gas Clouds were patches of gas clouds and nebulae that surrounded the the Dega and Osirrag systems. Although these nebulae posed a navigational hazard, a trade route had been established that connected the Dega and Osirrag systems with the Kidron system.
Imperial Interdicted Space:
When Derilyn was placed under martial law, the space around the system was also restricted: It is now known as âImperial Inderticted Spaceâ. The area, which runs from the edge of the Torina system to well past Derilyn, is heavily patrolled by Imperial warships. Any civilian vessels wishing to enter the area must first gain a Derlinyn Travel Waiver, from the Imperial Navy.
