Rogue Trader 2015: Halcyon Rising
Black Sun System
System: “Black Sun”: Discovered 4518810.M41 by the Arcadia Dynasty whilst exploring for the lost Explorator ship Y01- Singularity and it’s commander, Adjutant V.
The Warp lane to this system is quite stable, requiring regular drop outs to real space to re-plot a course, but ultimately is a safer journey than average, this has been plotted by Navigator: Mia of the Starship: Halcyon Blade
Navigation within the system is actually somewhat difficult as the Auspex arrays find the dim light of this star confusing, leading ships to drift off-course and lose their location.
Star: A Deadened star that emits a very faint visible light that casts everything in a deep purple hue, requires vision enhancements otherwise humans cannot adequately see, strangely this seems to also affect the Auspex.
