| Orbiting [[Karufr|Karufr's]] moon [[Karufr#Amaho|Amaho]], Infinity Station serves a dual purpose. The station is home to a modest research team attempting to uncover the secrets of [[Karufr#Amaho|Amaho's]] ocean: how and why the strange mix of chemicals found in the waters came to be. Several other projects are overseen by the group but remain classified. The primary purpose of the station is, however, governmental rather than scientific. It was originally constructed to serve as a secondary place to rule [[Taldryan|Clan Taldryan]], and the [[Kr'Tal]] system, from. The station has been used to deliver addresses to the entire clan and is the place where the [[Consul]] prefers to receive visiting dignitaries.

| The landing bay of Infinity Station is decorated with a row of large banners representing [[Taldryan|Clan Taldryan]], Houses [[House Archanis|Archanis]], [[House Dinaari|Dinaari]] and [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]], as well as the reigning Consul's personal warbanner. Once visitors leave the docking bay, they are taken through hallways tiled in Wayland marble and decorated in artworks which were both purchased and seized by Clan Taldryan during its conquests.

|
| There is a medium sized hall which the [[Consul]] uses as an audience chamber and has been the site of many addresses by the [[Consul]]. The hall is oblong shaped, with a large double door made of some of the last [[starwars:Kriin-wood|Kriin]] wood exported from [[starwars:Alderaan|Alderaan]] before its destruction by the first [[starwars:Death_Star_I|Deathstar]]. Opposite the door, there is a raised platform, it is from here that the reigning [[Consul]] grants audiences from his [[starwars:Greel_wood|Greel]] wood throne - which is removed when he delivers an address. The State of the Clan Address for [[26 ABY to Present|27 ABY]] was delivered from this room in Infinity Station. There is not enough room for the entire clan in the hall, so the only individuals who were invited to attend the address in person were summit members from [[Taldryan|Clan Taldryan]], former Consuls and Proconsuls, a hand full of members from each House, and the [[Dark Council]]. The address was broadcast in real time for the members of [[Taldryan]] who were not invited to the address.

| In addition to its research and public relations functions, [[Duga Taldrya Arkarso]] added a private living suite to the station during his reign as [[Consul]]. Unlike the public areas of the station, this suite is fairly plain. While [[Taldryan]] is not above using opulence to impress visitors and remind them of the power and prestige of their hosts, the clan has not allowed its wealth and power to go to its head. The [[Consul|Consul's]] suite consists of four rooms: a small library and artifact room, a physical training room, a meditation room and a small sleeping room.

| The library holds a small number of books from [[Taldryan]]'s larger library which have been reserved for the [[Consul|Consul's]] use, or books which he has requested be sent up to Infinity Station. In addition, the room also has space to hold a few Dark Side artifacts which the [[Consul]] is studying. The room is very simple: the floors are wood and the walls are lined with wooden bookshelves.

| The physical training room is a medium sized open space used by the [[Consul]] to train his body to fight more effectively. The one notable thing about the room is that the floor, walls and ceiling are impregnated with cortosis to prevent a dropped or thrown lightsaber from puncturing the outer hull of the station.
