Overview
A city and starport that exists on the planet Eris III
As seen in play (Session 7): a sprawling metropolis under Eris III’s permanent twilight glow, entered from the starport through the Aethel Security Checkpoint with a free public shuttle running to the centre. The corporate district is a canyon of skyscrapers — towers carrying the logos of Castellan Biodynamics, the Federal Republic, and the Firetemic Corporation, with the MacMillian Mining building mid-rebrand under Pratrock Dynamics signage. The clean main streets give way sharply to grimy back alleys behind the towers, and the whole city sits over the Aethel City Sewers. Peter Goodwin’s home is in a gated community with heavy private security.
