Alshain

 

Alshain is a planetary system orbiting a yellow G-class star.  The system lies in the Aquila Constellation of the Inner/Sol Region.

 
The Alshain System was first settled as an original Terran Colony.  The primary planet is a water covered world dotted with green, tropical islands.  The planet was once frozen in layers of ice, but as the sun grew into a subgiant, the ice slowly melted forming the global ocean that now covers the planet.

 

The island chains of Alshain's primary planet are home to a unique variety of creatures that have adapted to the planet's unique enviroment.  Nature and wildlife reserves are common as an attempt to preserve the planet's natural state.
