| ====== Albion ====== | ====== Albion ====== |
| Albion is a terrestrial planet located in the [[territories/aleph_cluster|Aleph Cluster]]. Albion and its orbit are home to several billion people, making the majority of the Cluster's population under the [[society/kingdom_of_albion|Kingdom of Albion]]. The predominant species is [[guide/species#humanborn|human]], but other humanoid alien species are known to intermingle and move freely through the planet. | Albion is a terrestrial planet located in the [[territories:aleph_null|Aleph Cluster]].

| Albion is also home to the orbital object 'Null', a multi-levelled, railgun-like space elevator used for facilitating trade and travel within the Aleph Cluster and beyond. Albion's economy is highly reliant on trade, as its natural resources are on a razor's edge. | Albion is also home to the orbital object 'Null', a multi-levelled, railgun-like space elevator used for facilitating trade and travel within the Aleph Cluster and beyond.

| Constructed atop the remains of a [[guide/transportation/sheoul|sheoul]] blast-deposit excavated from [[territories/aleph_cluster#thunderhead|Thunderhead]], the orbital object ‘Null’ is a hybrid electromagnetic railgun/space compression mass-driver. Colloquially known as ‘The Shooter’ by residents, its purpose is to provide extended travel throughout Aleph. | Constructed atop the remains of a [[guide/transportation/sheoul|sheoul]] blast-deposit excavated from [[territories:aleph_null#thunderhead|Thunderhead]], the orbital object ‘Null’ is a hybrid electromagnetic railgun/space compression mass-driver.

| | Null serves as a [[transportation/space_gate|space-gate]]: a colony, dry-dock, manufacturing and exchange location though the nature of its high sheoul deposits make it unsafe for extended stay, meaning the majority of Null is automated and those who stay usually either only do so briefly or become attuned to living there under the neurally disruptive conditions. As such those who live there are often eccentric. |
