| - | The Lucius system is located close to the Ascendancy's border with the [[:Free Union]]. It is well-populated, and one of [[:Noble Houses#House Rhyzikov]]'s centres of power in the region. The proximity with the Free Union has led to some seditious groups in the system in the past. The large size and high temperature of the star means that its habitable zone is quite distant from the star itself, and ships have to travel quite far to reach the inhabited planets. The star is also particularly chaotic, emitting bursts of electromagnetic activity coupled with high-intensity radiation out to the orbit of Lucius V, making it hazardous to be close by for long periods. Orbital facilities closer to the star tend to fail catastrophically within a few years, and merchant vessels travelling from the warp points around the star are regularly threatened by pirate activity lurking within the danger zone. | + | The Lucius system is located close to the Ascendancy's border with the [[:Free Union]].

| - | Lucius VIII is a large icy world between the giants. Without the high-intensity of the Lucius star it would be uninhabitable, but it is warm enough to sustain liquid water in about half of its year on parts of its surface. Lucius VIII is a large, high-gravity world. It has a sizeable population concentrated in several equatorial cities. More poleward-parts of the planet tend to be freezing wastelands roamed by native wildlife, although there are a number of factories as well as research and testing facilities here maintained by a few [[:MegaCorps]] and by [[Noble Houses#House Rhyzikov]]. | + | Lucius VIII is a large icy world between the giants.
