The Royal Clan finds itself nestled deep within the planetary system of Cocytus under the white star, Imperius. The size of the star is an estimated 1.4 million kilometers in diameter and provides the necessary warmth and illumination to sustain life on four orbiting planets: Judecca, Antenora, Caina and Ptolomea. Each planet is fundamentally different, but all of which are capable of sustaining life; however, the amount of denizens each can support is based on individual climate and resources.

Points of Interest

The RevengeX Palpatine Shipyards

Strategically placed mid-system and near Judecca so the Clan Fleet can defend the commercial resource and lifeblood of the System's economy. The shipyard is comprised of 150 slips, and ordinarily had a standard quality shipbuilding crew. In comparison, Incom Corporation, the original company responsible for the X-Wing, has 2,234 slips with the same quality shipbuilding crews. Adjacent to the slips is a refitting and construction platform that is owned by a third-party corporation, itself directly tied to an unknown member of Scholae Palatinae. The shipyards themselves were seriously damaged during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, and the Clan is still pouring funds in to bring them back up to par. Even harder to fix is the loss of many of the shipbuilding crew members, most of which had decades of shipbuilding experience. While purchasing more droids for the task has somewhat helped, the Clan still has trouble attracting qualified crews.

While the small shipyard draws little attention as a military asset, it does theoretically possess the potential to refit a vessel in the same class as a Victory-Class Star Destroyer. Although it is theoretically possible to construct such a vessel, in reality many of the slips are booked ahead years in advance. The vast majority of the slips that were reserved for Clan use only have been reluctantly assigned to help ease their delay, since the revenue source that comes from the shipyards is one the Clan can ill-afford to lose. Furthermore, the construction of such a vessel would require tremendous resources that would take years to acquire. As is right now the Clan is just barely able to produce enough fighters to replace those lost in training accidents or combat, not to mention maintenance of their large capital ship fleet.

The shipyards were named after long-standing Clan member RevengeX Palpatine, in honor of his long-standing service to House Acclivis Draco.

Manufacturing Plants

A series of industry parks are placed in orbit above the planets or near the shipyard. These plants are responsible for the production of pieces and parts necessary for the shipyard and local companies to produce transports and military vessels - these plants are also responsible for serving as the leading edge in technology development and experimental science.

Asteroid Belt
