The Glyph is a permanent Symbol of Death, effecting only those within a 20M mile radius of it's center (Known as the Red Zone). It constantly spins, but the amount of light shed does not change. The magical effect is result of death en mass of elven population of Executioner. Heat and light is uniform through the entire sphere, also due to magical effect, unless otherwise specified.

Dead world, thin atmosphere, originally a size H planet populated with elves. It's orbit thrown wild, making it drift closer to the sun, the exosystem slowly, horribly died. Originally named Thellaya, it's destruction was the first seed of the Order's way.

A large base, made of various materials. Very seedy, a modicum law upheld by Hoodsman's Fleet & Necromancers extracting crystals & undead from Executioner when it is out of the red zone. This station is not under Order control, although they do occasionally use it's "assets". From here, prisoners are sent to Executioner to be killed either by each other, or the sun's deadly symbol.

A group of ports built on a flat swamp world, which slowly rotates. Whoring and Smuggling are the main trades, aswell as air, due to the three times normal size air envelope (the cause of this is unknown). Taxes high, 2x air tax, and occasionally the main port (Grotch) is raided by the wild Swamp Mephits and Worgs. The goblin tribes, also using Worgs, often fight between themselves. Slavery is also abundant.

A large belt of randomly orbiting asteroids, for growing foods, magical curios, and artificially producing mana crystals (lending some light to the fields). Many asteroids controlled by miconids, whom grow rare mosses and spices. The general greenery of the asteroids' ecosystems leads to the term misplaced, as surely such a thing is rare in a sphere like this.

A solid cylinder of rock, with a band of rubbish and hovels around it's gravity plane, which is perpendicular to standard (Thus why it looks like a cross from the side). One quarter (The "Top") of the body is carved into spires and industrial areas, levelled. The non-noble/officer portion of Dark Crucifix lives both within the cylinder's caves, and on the outside of it, where homes have been cerved open to the stars, while the order's higher military personnel live within the base. Life in the warrens, as the cave-city is called, is dangerous, but only behind the scenes - due to order rule, one is more likely to walk safely through the streets at midnight, and be killed at mid-day in their own home, than the other way around, like in most worlds.

Once a beautiful live world, it looks like a bunch of gigantic oaks growing in all different directions. Taken by Necromancers a thousand years ago, as the Order Seed destroyed the elven world, it is now a twisted, evil liveworld, influenced by the necromantic energy surrounding it's population. Many children born here have abnormalities or are disformed. Life among the rooters, those commoners not employed by the neromancers, but who are instead forced into a life in the depths of the world, is tough, but they are loyal to each other, and have a relatively good millitia setup used to keep wandering undead out. They farm lichen and other fungi, and are only left alone by the necromancers so they can steal live specimens when need be.

The homeworld of the Asar, this has long been under Order rule. Once a year an Asar is born to a human woman, whom dies from the birth, but none are present apart from that. Those born quickly find themselves in hiding, wearing thick enough wraps over their heads so that their eyes are concealed. They are always born to widows, in the slums. Apart from that the world of Aius is a standard world, with much industrial pollution in it's atmosphere. It could be thought of as similar to england in the 1900's, but darker, much more evil, and full of pollution. All inhabitants are under the Order's rule, and not a mile of the planet is not charted by the Order, and under their watchful eye.

Brought into existence by the order, this fire body has been growing for the last thousand years, brought into existence by the Order when they took the world. It is populated by the few Tanar'ri summoned to aid the order, and many grue and mephits they have since summoned. The demons keep largely to themselves, not over-running the whole sphere for the simple fact their ranks reap many souls from it's population.

A simple orb, looking from afar like a piece of coal, this body is simply used for Ore extraction. It is also covered in charcoal and coal, from the destruction reaped by the Order.

Artificially altered, this body is shaped like the head of an Illithid. The main home of Ragespace Illithids, it contains only two cities, each holding roughly 50,000 Mind Flayers. The rest of the population is dispersed across the whole area. The land is made mainly of coral and similar materials, and at it's center is a psionic generator producing water from the elemental plane of water. All around the head is the water, causing the bottom half of the tentacles to be submerged, and the entire bottom of the skull. Ships approach the gravity plane at the edge, and as they merge their air envelopes they draw of water for sale to the Order's industrial sectors.

The Arcane's Ragespace sanctuary, it is the second constructed after the first was destroyed by a bunch of pirates. Since then, the Order has protected the base, and the Arcane have flourished.

This is a belt, in the middle of the system, that seperates the sphere's inhabitants - or at least it once did, in a way. The belt was once much thicker, consisting of hundreds of moon-sized asteroids. Ten millenia ago it was a gigantic planet, smashed when the dwarven gods were forced from the world by a war, and five hundred years ago it was a thicker belt, since being dispersed by the Order's ships. Many pirate bases were once hidden here, but due to the proximity of the neogi, a few drow cities, and the ammount of mephits, they have now learned to move elsewhere.

This is, quite simply, a Tarrasque, orbiting at a great distance from the primary. It was originally from the elven planet, but leaped off as it became smaller, long after the elves and other inhabitants were dead. Eventually, it came into orbit around the primary, and has slowly drifted outwards. It trashes, simply, anything it happens to float into, including the last thing it struck - a dwarven citadel. Since, it has holed itself deep inside, entering a hibernation state.
