Strategic Location: At the center of the Brennai's
sphere of influence.
Temperature: 129% Standard.
Atmosphere: Thick, with much higher than normal
percentages of water vapor, oxygen, and Merithin-9, a milky white
gas.
Hydrosphere: 62% of the surface of Brennah is covered
in water, of which 93% has a salinity of 1%-5%.
Gravity: 87% Standard.
Terrain: Swamps, marshes, tableland forests.
Mineral Resources: Substantial reserves of duranium,
lommite, iron, metarr, gold and platinum, though most of the larger
veins have been played out.
Length of Day: 34 standard hours.
Length of Year: 212 local days.
Sapient Species: The Brennai are the only native
sentient species.
Capital City: Noruh Brennah
Other Cities: Othuminah, Buru Albin, Lekthem Char, and
Mursu are the other large cities of Brennah.
Starport: Buru Albin is home to a large galaxy class
port, and that port and it's approach vectors are the only places
where space going craft are permitted on Brennah.
Population (within +/- 1%): 21,513,843,914,000 Brennai.
Government: Brennah is under the control of the
Homeworld subcouncil, an office of the council of elders.
Tech Level: Very high space. While research and
manufacturing is conducted on Brennah, most of it's advances and
products are shipped in from other Brennai worlds.
Major Exports: Governance, trained Brennai in all
fields.
Major Imports: Raw materials, manufactured goods,
laborers, foodstuffs.

System Capsule:
Ishu: A boiling hot world, Ishu is home to a few scientific
observatories, and experimental mining colonies.
Bular: Inhabited by Brennai pressure domes since before they
developed faster than light travel, Bular is still home to several
large domes housing heavy industry installations.
Brennah: See below.
Ulah: Uncomfortably dry for Brennai tastes, Ulah was
inhabited briefly during the great population explosion 1.2 million
years ago, but has been abandoned since then.
Thebul: The largest planet of the Domian system, Thebul has
been heavily mined for it's gasses without leaving any mark at all
on it's reserves.
Thu: Not as rich as Thebul, Thu is also home to a few minor
mining stations.
Losan: Home of the homeworld defence fleet, Losan is also
mined for it's substantial platinum reserves.
Planetary Capsule:
Flora and fauna: The life of Brennah has been shaped by
it's long exposure to the Brennai. Urban life forms, such as the
Kuran Rat, the Dumahirah fern, and the Loipanai are quite common,
and specifically adapted for life in the cities of Brennah. Other
native species survive primarily in the parks and nature reserves
of the planet, though a few hardy species such as the Grey winged
gull, the bluerenok and the iron mole can be found in those
unprotected regions unsuited for development for one reason or
another.
Sentient Species: The tall, extremely intelligent and
extremely xenophobic Brennai are the
surviving native species of Brennah. There is some evidence that
other races shared the world with the Brennai during their earliest
prehistory, but they were wiped out millions of years ago.
History: The Brennai are an ancient race, which has
avoided the cycle of expansion and collapse that marks so many
interstellar civilizations, primarily due to the fact that the
nature of their technology limits them to a single small nebula.
Brennah has been the center of Brennai civilization since time
immemorial. Home of the Council of Elders, the shadowy rulers of
the Brennai, Brennah is also home to the largest population of the
nebula, and even after all the years of civilization, the
industrial capacity of the Domian system is somewhat larger than
that of just about any of the other systems of the nebula.
The power of Brennah has waxed and waned over the years, as
the capital of the Brennai central authority. During those years
where power spread out to other loci of control, Brennah lost power
and population, and when the power was gathered into the hands of
the Council, Brennah's star rose. The Hered Na Brennah, the
mammoth flagship of the Brennai fleet was built in the Domian
system during the last period of revolt against the council, and
that flagship has helped concentrate power in the Brennah system.
The trillions of Brennai on the homeworld mostly live a few
giant cities. Thousands of meters high, these cities are composed
of interlocked buildings of white duraplast, with flowing, organic
lines. The size of these structures and there shapes would
certainly produce an awareness of intense alieness on any sighted
races, but no non-Brennai have ever seen the cities of the
homeworld, and as long as Brennai power stands, none ever will.
