YEAR LENGTH: 170 standard days CLUSTER SIZE: `G' (70,000 by 50,000 miles) NUMBER OF ASTERIODS: 40 DISTANCE FROM PRIMARY: 45 - 55 million miles
The leading member of this sparse cluster is Delta-One, a size `C' firebody. While it does not have any `moons' (unlike Gamma Cluster), it does provide heat and warmth to the clusters other members. Generally, the closer the other cluster members are to this firebody, the warmer they are.
The Delta cluster orbits the Maw at an extreme angle compared to that of the other clusters (nearly 90~ compared to the Alpha Cluster).
This cluster has been largely `mined out' by the Invaders, who, as a result are shifting their activities to the Gamma and Eta Clusters.
ASTERIOD NAME: Delta-Two ASTERIOD TYPE: Spherical water covered earthbody ASTERIOD SIZE: `C' (220 miles) DAY LENGTH: 14 hours
Delta-Two is closest to Delta-One, and as a result it has a nearly tropical climate. Most of its surface is covered with water; unlike most other bodies of water in this sphere, Delta-Two's sea has abundant marine life - eels, fish, crustaceans, ect. The islands rising from this sea fall into two catagories: utterly barren rocks or lush gardens, conditions which apparently prevailed prior to the Invaders arrival. Delta-Two is `the' pleasure asteriod of the sphere; its islands are dotted with dance halls, brothels, fighting pits, drinking dens, and casino's.
Locations:
Three Doors: So named because of the three Gates at its
center (to Alpha-Three, Gamma-Five, and Delta-Three
respectively), this island is the place that gives
Delta-Two its wild reputation, with many bars,
brothels, gambling houses, ect.
Monkey Island: This rather large island is home to almost a
thousand reclusive grommam and chattur. Their
ancestors were dropped off here just prior to the
Invaders arrival. The Invaders basically ignore the
`ape's', though occasionally some particularly
cruel Invader will go hunting them, and a few have
been drafted into service aboard the invaders many
transports.
Decker Isle: On the surface, this appears to be another
pleasure island, much like Three Doors. However, it
is actually secretly controlled by the
Chainbreakers.
ASTERIOD NAME: Delta Three ASTERIOD TYPE: Spherical earthbody ASTERIOD SIZE: `B' (70 mile diameter) DAY LENGTH: 6 hours
Delta-Three is a ghost town of a world; the Invaders have been steadily shutting down the various mines here over the past few decades. Currently only two small mining operations are left. Small bands of escaped slaves roam the surface and tunnels; occasionally the Invaders hunt these escapees for sport.
ASTERIOD NAME: Delta-Eight ASTERIOD TYPE: Irregular earthbody ASTERIOD SIZE: `B' (60 mile diameter) DAY LENGTH: 5 hours
Officially, this rather pleasant seeming planetiod is another all but abandoned mining outpost; with fast growing brush and grass covering the scars of most of the old mining sites. In actuality though, Delta-Eight is a dumping ground for the more dangerous products of the Invaders experimental breeding programs: basilisks, chimera, gorgons, and other vile creatures are found roaming this place. The Invaders maintain two orbital stations and a single very heavily protected ground outpost on this worldlet.
