Burroughs

Burroughs was once the “border-town” in the early colonial days to regions beyond League space...

Once a station known for it’s advanced adventure-seeking and intelligent society, Burroughs is now a shell of what it once was, devoid of almost all natural resources and life. The station is located within a war-torn former League city, surrounded by forgotten oil refineries and ruins. Despite it’s bleak surroundings, Burroughs is one of the busiest hubs in League space, and remains a popular destination for young explorers trying to prove their abilities.

The interior of Burroughs is cold and industrial, with wide-open corridors and towering monuments to heroes past. The citizens of Burroughs idolize these heroes, and are reminded every day of the sacrifice and constant struggle they overcame to preserve their rich, yet violent history. Religious beliefs are a social taboo on Burroughs, as it’s citizens place their only belief in a strong family unit, and personal responsibility. As a result, many visitors find the station’s inhabitants rather uppity, blunt, and honest to a fault. Personal firearms and weapons of all kinds are widely available on Burroughs, and all forms of drugs are banned. The shortage of fresh water and plant life on the planet has forced a League-wide plea for help in recent years, causing a rise in theft against trade ships en route to the station. A travel warning is in effect.
