Planets of Proxima Centauri



Bazaar
– an entire world devoted solely to commerce.  It is thought that Bazaar is actually an artificial planet and that underneath the layers of malls, warehouses, markets and more is merely a great gravity engine from an unremembered age.

Centauri Prime – homeworld of the Centaurans and centre of their once-Empire.  Meeting place of the Great Council.  Centauri Prime is firmly in the grip of House Bezos these days, and is covered in great workhouses where that House’s Vassals toil.

Crisol – compared to other worlds Crisol is a wild place on the fringe of Proxima Centauri civilisation.  Its location in the system makes it a place through which inter-system travellers come and go and all manner of species and cultures can be found there amongst the various ports and settlements that cover this dusty desert world.

Lederevo – a cold planet, the land that isn’t forest is either frozen beach or tundra.  Homeworld of the Sobakas.

Martillo – an industrial world so polluted that its workers are happy to remain in the giant factories, foundries, mines and habblocks rather than spend time outside in toxic winds and acidic rain.

Neo-Europa – a world now populated by the AFA Union, but with significant numbers of Xoranites who came by invitation and live side-by-side with the humans.  Considered by some to be a utopia, the truth isn’t as shiny and clean as the AFAU would have visitors believe.

Sabon Gida – largely settled by Zango Dangote, Sabon Gida is also homeworld of the Dabbanci people.  It is similar to Earth but without the pollution, focussing mostly on agriculture – the Dabbanci and Zango Dangote have formed a fruitful partnership exporting food to other planets in the system.

Yushui – taken by Clan Zhong as its home in Proxima Centauri, this world is mostly water – a network of great artificial islands and undersea domes houses most of the population, while aquatic and amphibious lifeforms take the waters and the small natural islands.
