Setting
This game takes place primarily on a ringworld called Threshold. It is an ancient piece of precursor technology predating any of the current races and has been fought over for centuries. Each empire has laid claim to it at one point or another. For the last 1000 years, it has been under Necroforged Administrative control.
However, the Necroforged have designated Threshold a Neutral Zone, meaning that it does not actively take sides in war. It also means that all nations are free to do business here. It also means that many diplomatic conventions take place here.
Threshold has been separated into "Zones" for ease of administration.
The Agricultural Zone- Composed primarily of fields and rural areas, the Agricultural zones are where Threshold's food is produced (and often in such abundance that the excess is sold to other nations). Many dojos have sprung up in the Agricultural districts and, while not farming, many partake in martial arts, swordsmanship, or competitive monster battles.
The Commercial District- Composed of a number of high rises and open markets, the Commercial district is a place where one can buy almost anything. The Necroforged put very few limits on who can purchase what so, as long as you have the money, it is possible to buy nearly anything here.
The Leisure District- Composed of casinos, gladiatorial arenas, and all manner of other diversions, the Leisure District is patrolled far more vigilantly than other districts... though what the Necroforged consider 'criminal' is often somewhat different than the sensibilities of other races, meaning that those who come here can be assured that they will have a good time without running afoul of those that would harm them.
The Educational District- Composed of Universities, Laboratories, Archives, Schools (Elementary, Middle, and High), and R&D departments, the Educational District of Threshold is renowned across the galaxy as the premier place to get an education or research cutting edge technology. It is also the home to the largest comprehensive magic school in the galaxy as well as the most prestigious Military academy. Because Threshold does not participate in war with the other Nations, most train their officers at the Threshold Military Academy.
The Industrial District- Primarily composed of scrap yards, the Industrial Sector turns the large field of wrecked ships (and any refuse produced by the rest of Threshold) into usable products.
The Ruined Sector- Not all of Threshold has been restored and, even those that have often not been fully explored. The ruined sector refers to the sections of Threshold that have not been restored or fully explored. These areas are often dangerous, chosen as hideouts for gangs and criminal activities. However, the ruins are often a draw for those who wish to discover the secrets of the precursors (or, perhaps, those who wish to unearth ancient treasures)
