About the adventure
Scattered systems have come together to form the Six Systems Alliance (6SA) as the galaxy has this many at its core. The 6SA is formed to foster peace and focus their efforts on keeping that peace and the betterment of life members of the Alliance. Each member system and their respective planets have the same name, though they retain their inherent cultural names. Through the Weave, the very fabric of the universe is malleable by those with the affinity to do so. Weave, for good or evil is a potent force, and those who choose the latter become corrupted and in doing so corrupt the universe itself. Weave powers all technology and even the starships and has brought the systems together reflected by order of their allegiance. A planet's specific composition of Ember directly influences its trade.
