The rocky heart of the frontier! Taranis is best known as one of the systems of Kellar’s Run, and it allows transport crews a way to avoid transit through the pirate warrens of the Nexus System. It’s a questionable bargain, though. Taranis’ is free of all the most brazen pirates for a good reason: a pair of extremely dense asteroid belts that must be traversed to travel from one jump point to another. The asteroid and lunar debris fields of the Taranis system have proven an early graveyard for many pilots who did not have the skill to negotiate such hazards.

| - The rocky heart of the frontier! Taranis is best known as one of the systems of Kellar’s Run, and it allows transport crews a way to avoid transit through the pirate warrens of the Nexus System. It’s a questionable bargain, though. Taranis’ is free of all the most brazen pirates for a good reason: a pair of extremely dense asteroid belts that must be traversed to travel from one jump point to another. The asteroid and lunar debris fields of the Taranis system have proven an early graveyard for many pilots who did not have the skill to negotiate such hazards. Taranis itself is an A-Type Main Sequence star, blue-white in appearance. It was discovered in 2401 by the famed UEN survey ship Mythic Horizon. Taranis’ discovery was routine, done almost in passing. The system was considered nonviable at the time, with only a single high risk candidate for terraforming. Further, the star’s location offered no visible strategic advantage at the time and the raw resources were rated as low-to-middling. The system’s initial exploration was the site of a minor tragedy: one of Mythic Horizon’s survey boats was lost with all hands in a meteor strike. A plaque located near the landing zone on Taranis III eulogizes them as noble sacrifices to mankind’s expansion. Taranis has also recently entered the popular culture because of its role in Original Systems’ Arena Commander. The “Broken Moon of Taranis” map is one of two included in the massively popular simulator’s public demo. The setting pits players against one another in the debris field near Taranis II. Hornet, Aurora and 300i pilots dodge both flying rocks and massive pulsating terraformers as they fight it out in an ultra-realistic battle royale. The choice of Taranis in Arena Commander has even led to increased (and very dangerous) tourism in the system, as self-titled “Arena Nuts” travel from far and wide to have their holographs taken in front of the lunar remnants. Taranis is also the system where the Broken Moon scenario in Arena Commander takes place.
