Caph

The Caph system is most famous for the Red Gas Rock that can be mined from the asteroids that lead and follow the gas giant Malaqah. This ore is rich in H3, which is a necessary fuel for the graviton drives that make space travel possible. The mining stations on these asteroids are known as the Caph platforms, and they date back to the era of the Founders. They have long been run by a small Nomad clan, the Hamida, but that has recently changed with the expansion of the region under the control of control of Queen Quara of Marfik. Now, her Hydra Flotilla has claimed the Caph Platforms for themselves. Some say that the secret of the Hydra Flotilla's meteoric rise to power was here, in the Caph system, where a deep space Founders ship yard was discovered and reactivated. But those rumors have not been confirmed.
