 For a world that is so crucial to the link between the spinward and trailing halves of the Imperium, it is otherwise a relatively unimportant world, with an unimpressive population, low technology level and limited starport facilities. For a world that is so crucial to the link between the spinward and trailing halves of the Imperium, it is otherwise a relatively unimportant world, with an unimpressive population, low technology level and limited starport facilities.
  
 The bulk of the population is centred in a crescent around the //Mer Violette// in the northern hemisphere, with about forty million people living in communes there. A 'commune' is a self-autonomous region with its own security forces and social systems. There are very few laws enforced across the world, most of them around enforcing contracts between individuals and companies. The bulk of the population is centred in a crescent around the //Mer Violette// in the northern hemisphere, with about forty million people living in communes there.

 +The world has a thin, tainted atmosphere. Pollen can cause an allergic reaction similar to hay-fever (END 6+ to avoid, -1 to all actions after a day due to headaches and sneezing), or even cause breathing difficulties (END 2+ to avoid, otherwise -1 END every day). Wearing a simple cloth face mask grants a +1 to the check.

 There are groups which provide financing to those who can't pay, just as there are groups that will take on investigation and enforcement for a price. There are groups which provide financing to those who can't pay, just as there are groups that will take on investigation and enforcement for a price.

 +=== Judge and Jury ===
 +
 +If a crime is committed (murder, theft of property, breaking a contract), then a jury of peers will decide the fate of the accused. For serious crimes, this is generally very quick - within a few days of accusation. There are no judges in such courts - the jury decide guilt, legal interpretation and punishment.
 +
 +Evidence may be presented during the trial, but it's up to the prosecution and defence to obtain that evidence. There are groups that can be paid to do this, or the defence or prosecution can do it themselves. If the defence is locked up, has no friends to help them and no money to pay for someone to find evidence on their behalf, then the chance of being found guilty is very high.

 +Having friends and being part of a social group on Zuflucht can be very important.

-==== Bounty Hunters ==== 
  
-There are numerous groups of bounty hunters who provide services to hunt down those who have wronged individualsSince there is no planet-wide police force, there are no crimes. The only response to murdertheft or other actions is to either take revenge into your own handsor pay those who can do it for you.+ 
 +==== Services and Companies ==== 
 + 
 +=== Deepnight Exploration === 
 + 
 +There is an office here for //Deepnight Exploration//. They mostly collect information from the various missions that Deepnight has going on around the Rift. 
 + 
 +=== Ling Standard Products === 
 + 
 +//LSP// has an office here that manages shipments traversing between the Islands and the Trojan Reach. They mostly have their own ships, but will have a number of jobs for smaller independent ships for cargo that needs to be shipped off the normal schedules. 
 + 
 +=== Trans-Rift Corporation === 
 + 
 +The //Trans-Rift Corporation// owns a number of large tenders designed for carrying smaller ships across the Rift. They are Jump-4 capable, and are in the 30,000t to 60,000t range. They have regular scheduled flights from the Trojan Reach to Gushmege and back, providing a way for less capable ships to get across the Rift. 
 + 
 +Currently, its fleet consists of //Monarque//, //Espoir des Étoiles// and //Saint Charles//. It is a company based out of Amondiage, where the headquarters are located. 
 + 
 + 
 +=== Enforcement Agencies === 
 + 
 +There are a number of 'enforcement agencies' based at the starport. They mostly provide services to locals, hunting down those who have committed wrongs, and bringing them to justiceThere is no global police force, so if you are unable to seek revenge/justice yourself then there are groups who can be hired. 
 + 
 +== Justice Incorporated == 
 + 
 +Have a good investigation team, capable of finding out who committed some crime, rather than just focusing on hunting them down afterwards. 
 + 
 +== The Collective == 
 + 
 +The largest of the enforcement agenciesknown to be reliable and stick to the contract. Can be pricey. 
 + 
 +== The Red Squad == 
 + 
 +Cheaper than some others, can be heavy handed at times and seem to enjoy their jobs a bit too much.
