Return to Kuat Sector

The Glithnos System is one of the seven systems of the Kuat Sector.
The Glithnos system has no native sentient species, in past millennia it was colonized by adventurous humans that didnt mind the cold that dominates Glithnos' planets. It holds no particular role of importance in galactic politics, although it did have a representative in the Galactic Senate.

Glithnos (II)

One of Glithnos' active volcanic wastelands

Just outside the systems goldilocks zone Glithnos exists in a state of perpetual winter, it has a thick heavy atmosphere that is just breathable to humans, but anyone suffering lung conditions is advised to stay away, due to the fairly high levels of ash and sulphur in the air. Most of the heat that keeps the planet from turning into a complete snowball world comes from the highly active planet core which results in three significant perpetual volcanic wastelands to exist on the surface.
Despite its less than ideal climate and atmosphere multiple settlements have formed on the planet, often initially sponsored by industrials seeking natural resources or adventurous souls seeking cheap land. Although relatively poor in minable resources and agricultural potential, Glithnos does have small but growing industry specialised in growing and harvesting minerals that provide a cheap decorative alternative for precious stones and gems.
Its central location and climate ability to keep things cooled actually make it a fairly decent place to store wares and use as a distribution center.
