A mish-mash of dreary swamps, misty marshes, spiny be-scraggled forests, and rocky, weatherbeaten heights set upon land that would otherwise be tolerable, Krittain Major is one of the three habitable orbs in a star system strewn with asteroids and planetoids, each more macabre than the next. It has the most agreeable atmosphere of the lot, but even that is marked by an ever-present pall, as if it is going to rain at a moment's notice. The air has a damp coldness to it, and the clouds only part sporadically to allow undiffused sunlight. When the clouds do disperse, one is confronted with the sight of a dozen moons (at least) orbitting the planet, which cause extensive tidal mayhem.

| - A mish-mash of dreary swamps, misty marshes, spiny be-scraggled forests, and rocky, weatherbeaten heights set upon land that would otherwise be tolerable, Krittain Major is one of the three habitable orbs in a star system strewn with asteroids and planetoids, each more macabre than the next. It has the most agreeable atmosphere of the lot, but even that is marked by an ever-present pall, as if it is going to rain at a moment's notice. The air has a damp coldness to it, and the clouds only part sporadically to allow undiffused sunlight. When the clouds do disperse, one is confronted with the sight of a dozen moons (at least) orbitting the planet, which cause extensive tidal mayhem. Landmass-to-water ratio is rather balanced, but most of the land is untenable. The Krits have mastered water travel, and have even gone so far as to build starships on waterborne facilities. Lansdowne Loch is indeed the largest such facility in Krittain, with starships built on the water in a huge fjord lined and equipped with derricks, shops, and warehouses.
