In many ways typical of the large corporations based on independent worlds of Reavers' Deep, Dakaar Minerals is a far-ranging, unscrupulous organization whose activities are not far removed from the Reavers themselves.
Near-airless desert world whose 750 inhabitants used to make a fair living cultivating a lichen-like substance from which a popular gourmet spice could be extracted. When the trade failed the community experienced great trouble surviving. At the present time, inhabitants are desperately trying to arrange transport away from Daken.
Danelag was settled during the Rule of Man by a Racial Purity Group from Scandinavia. Raided heavily during the Long Night, the world was later invaded by Aslan and Human forces alike. Since then the population of Danelag has been very insular, thoroughly convinced that Outsiders (they spell it with a capital "O") is nothing but trouble.
Historically notable as the former sub-capital of the Iltharan Empire, Drinsaar was converted into a garden-resort world catering to the elite of the Carrillian Assembly. The world is also the site of several government-owned agricultural combines. Access to the world is restricted due to the Rebellion and the war between Daibei and the Solomani Confederation, and it is rumored many Assembly elites sent their families there to ride out the war.
The Drinsaar Loop is a 23 world main covering a subsector-sized area which spans three subsectors in Reavers' Deep. The main is named for Drinsaar, near one end of the main, which was an important gateway for human exploration of the area. Drinsaar is no longer the most important world on the main, but the name has stuck, even among the non-humans who trade up and down the length.
