The Myrlian Belt


Insanity, chaos, opportunity, all these words have been used to describe the Myrlian belt. A region of space defined by its four inhabitable systems and numerous terraformed words, the belt was once the site of an extensive, and expensive, colonization campaign. The Directorate of Myr, a government within the greater Harmonious Network, put enough capital into the project that many considered the belt to be a prospective hub of commerce and development. The only problem was that the project became so expensive the Directorate ran out of funds. Taxes higher than any in the network were leveled within the Directorate to address the crises, but ultimately political pressure demanded the entire effort be abandoned forty three years ago.

Isolated on the distant outer rim of the Harmonious Network, with only the most developed system having a way station, the Myrlian Belt fell apart. Paychecks stopped arriving and then laws stopped being enforced. Billions of credits worth of weaponry went missing as soldiers abandoned their posts and took 'severance packages' with them, aiming to turn a hefty profit. Those weapons found their way into the hands of individuals who aspired to be the new lords of the belt, and soon war became a constant in the life of those foolish enough to have moved to a once shining beacon of civilization.

Without easy transport millions were trapped to live in a new kind of hell. Those on the less developed planets were the luckiest; for the most part they were free to live out bucolic, unimportant, lives away from the ravages of war. However, even on those dusty, half terraformed, and easily forgotten worlds, law had become a thing of the past. Pirates, raiders, mercenaries, the Myrlian belt had forever become a haven and utopia to them all.

The Systems of the Myrlian Belt:










What You Need To Know!


    -The Myrlian Belt is a chaotic utopia for mercenaries, pirates, slavers, outlaws, and the general scum of the universe!

    -There is no central authority in the Belt. You might get in trouble with one of the hundreds of factions in the star cluster, but generally nobody except for them them will care. Murder and pillage away.

    -While the Myrlian Belt is in the Harmonious Network, anyone can play around here. This is just a setting. Take the first shuttle to the best worst place in the universe today!

    -The general Expanding Horizons rules apply, but I'm not going to be reporting anyone for excessive violence or any other sort of non-pornographic content. The Myrlian Belt is a terrible place and things happen. That said, use your heads Mmkay?

    -IMPORTANT: Anyone can contribute a planet or setting to the Myrlian Belt. The ones you see here are only the starting locations! I'd prefer it not get ridiculous but a few more planets per system is 100% acceptable and in fact desired.

I mean, it'll be great if I had someone help me if one's really interested. Doing it alone is a bit more difficult.
