This star system once was habitable, on September 20th of 2390 the system was destroyed when the star was artificially collapsed during an attack. The only stellar phenomena left within the system is the Umbral Rift. The star's stellar wind creates a bubble, known as the heliosphere, which extends out to approximately 119.2596 AU. Beyond this, the star's gravitational influence extends out to a distance of 1.87 light-years, marking the ultimate edge of the system.

Former Contents of the System

Prior to its destruction, the Schatten System was a curious region designated for its intense spacial instability. It formerly contained an Ort Cloud and a barrier of massive spacial distortion, along with an extremely dense asteroid belt and five planets.

The system's innermost planets included Vethania, a Class B world with a moon named Leere, and Yalia, a small Class C world. Both of these inner worlds, along with the dense asteroid belt located further out, were completely obliterated during the stellar collapse.

Further out lay Soteria, the primary habitable Class M world of the system. Beyond Soteria was Dilea, an unusual Class I gas and ice giant, and Eter, a bitterly cold Class P world that housed an Avali colony. All of these celestial bodies, their moons, and the asteroid belt were entirely vaporized by the relativistic surface blast and subsequent supernova.

What Happened

The system was completely obliterated in a catastrophic, unprovoked assault. The attack commenced when a 2.35-kilometer-wide beam of Quark-Gluon Condensate breached subspace, bypassing all defenses. The beam struck the system's blue giant star, triggering violent gravitational fluctuations and forcing a full stellar collapse. The massive spacial distortion barrier that once surrounded the system was breached by this initial beam and subsequently scoured by the system's supernova.

Rather than exploding immediately, the star's mass was augmented by the beam, causing it to violently contract and shrink in seconds toward the size of a neutron star. This catastrophic implosion blasted its entire outer surface away in a concentric sphere traveling at relativistic speeds, which was followed immediately by a full supernova detonation.

During the stellar collapse, the system was simultaneously flooded with unknown, warp-capable ordnance that systematically dismantled the system's infrastructure. While Soteria was destroyed in the supernova, the surviving population and fleet managed a desperate evacuation, utilizing Nimbus Station to jump to the sanctuary planet of Kenoma in the Xanthon Star System.

-This curious system exists inside one of the largest spacial rifts on record.  It consists of five planets total and a single yellow star.  The star itself has an extremely strong magnetic and subspace field and produces a large array of gravitational anomalies that move through the star system in spheroid orbits.  Each disturbance effects the orbit and position of the disturbances near it.  Navigation through the system is thus hazardous at the best of times.

+This star system once was habitable, on September 20th of 2390 the system was destroyed when the star was artificially collapsed during an attack. The only stellar phenomena left within the system is the [[Umbral Rift]]. The star's stellar wind creates a bubble, known as the heliosphere, which extends out to approximately 119.2596 AU.

-Transit into the system is only safe when jumping through the distortion field. Either by use of a Jump Gate or through some other form of transportation which doesn't have to pass through the rift surrounding the system. Ships passing through the rift will suffer systems failures as well as the complete shutdown of their power systems. Although even giventhese facts, navigation through the rift is possible. Once through the boundaries of the rift power systems come back online and around 75% of the time have very little damage.
+== Former Contents of the System ==
+Prior to its destruction, the Schatten System was a curious region designated for its intense spacial instability. It formerly contained an Ort Cloud and a barrier of massive spacial distortion, along with an extremely dense asteroid belt and five planets.
-== Planets ==
+The system's innermost planets included Vethania, a Class B world with a moon named Leere, and Yalia, a small Class C world. Both of these inner worlds, along with the dense asteroid belt located further out, were completely obliterated during the stellar collapse.
-=== Schatten Prime ===
-''Classification: C''
-A solid rock world with a core composed of a mix of lead and a variety of radioactive isotopes.  There is no life on this world, nor can it support life due to the intense radiation present.  The planets orbit is elliptical for an unknown reason causing enough changes in gravity that tidal forces cause extreme tectonic shifts.  Due to the planets extremely heavy core and large size it does retain enough pressure and gravity to have liquid water along with a thick atmosphere of exotic gases.
+Further out lay [[Soteria]], the primary habitable Class M world of the system. Beyond Soteria was Dilea, an unusual Class I gas and ice giant, and Eter, a bitterly cold Class P world that housed an Avali colony. All of these celestial bodies, their moons, and the asteroid belt were entirely vaporized by the relativistic surface blast and subsequent supernova.
-==== Leere ====
+== What Happened ==
-There is one satellite, Leere, which is even more effected by the tidal forces that trouble the planet.  Continuously in tectonic upheaval with a thin crust and molten core.  The cores composition is similar to the planet, mostly composed of liquid lead but with a mix of highly radioactive metals.  Its orbit around Schatten Prime is erratic, likely due to anomalies shifting the gravitational field while it orbits.
+The system was completely obliterated in a catastrophic, unprovoked assault. The attack commenced when a 2.35-kilometer-wide beam of Quark-Gluon Condensate breached subspace, bypassing all defenses. The beam struck the system's blue giant star, triggering violent gravitational fluctuations and forcing a full stellar collapse. The massive spacial distortion barrier that once surrounded the system was breached by this initial beam and subsequently scoured by the system's supernova.
-=== Schatten II ===
+Rather than exploding immediately, the star's mass was augmented by the beam, causing it to violently contract and shrink in seconds toward the size of a neutron star. This catastrophic implosion blasted its entire outer surface away in a concentric sphere traveling at relativistic speeds, which was followed immediately by a full supernova detonation.
-''Classification: C''
-A very small rocky world with no atmosphere composed of mostly iron but with trace amounts of most metals.  This planet also has a very strange orbit but one less effected by gravitational shifts.  It has a thin system of twisted rings which surround the planet, mostly composed of frozen small-chain hydrocarbons.
+During the stellar collapse, the system was simultaneously flooded with unknown, warp-capable ordnance that systematically dismantled the system's infrastructure. While Soteria was destroyed in the supernova, the surviving population and fleet managed a desperate evacuation, utilizing [[Nimbus Station]] to jump to the sanctuary planet of Kenoma in the [[Xanthon Star System]].
-=== Schatten III ===
-[[file:schatten-3.jpg|thumb|Schatten III]]
-''Classification: N''
-Similar to Schatten Prime but a much older world and thus its core has far fewer radioactive isotopes and more lead.  The surface has little in the way of liquid water but does have a very thick atmosphere of gases giving way to extremely violent weather patterns.  Its orbit is much more typical and it has a thin asteroid belt around it.
-The [[Blazing Umbra Station]] also orbits this planet along with a Jump Gate and navigational beacons, field generators, and other such technology to help make navigation near the station less of a problem.
-=== Schatten IV ===
-''Classification: J''
-A gas world, somewhat larger than Jupiter.  The atmosphere is composed mostly of helium and hydrogen, it has no moons or rings.
-=== Schatten V ===
-''Classification: J''
-Another gas world.  This one, however, is a bit stranger and is composed almost entirely of hydrogen with a metallic hydrogen core.  Somehow several large moons, approximately 9, have become caught in the gravity well just below the surface of the atmosphere.  All the moons are relatively large and it is unclear how they maintain such strange orbital paths.  The atmosphere has high concentrations of crystalized carbon dust throughout its upper and mid atmospheric regions.  This causes the plants atmosphere to produce an incredibly bright glow from refracted and focused star-shine.
-==== Soteria ====
-The 7th moon of Schatten V evolved through an as yet not understood process to have a unique core of Thorium, Plutonium, and Uranium.  This core along with the moons tidal forces keep the moons surface at temperatures comfortably within the M-Class range, unique carbon crystals arranged in a covalent network structure throughout the core also inhibit neutron production and collision.  The moons surface is protected from its core radiation by naturally a carbon-lead mantle which also protects the planet from its hot internal radiation, allowing the heat itself to permeate to the surface.  The carbon layers encapsulate the lead and act as a filtration system for the moons water cycle providing clean water on the surface.  The body is just a bit larger than Earth's moon.
-The focused star-shine generated by the planet itself allows 19 hour day/night cycles along with its 291 day year.  The surface of the moon itself and an oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere.  The density of the metallic core provides gravity to approximately 82% of Earth normal gravity.  Twice every year, however, the surface of the moon is plunged into for between 6-9 days while its orbit around the planet takes it away from the focal point of the planets star-shine.
-''The moon is about a 15 minutes shuttle ride from [[Blazing Umbra Station]].''
