Planet Description

York was a large and warm planet with relatively intense tectonic activity. The planet had large mountain ranges with several volcanoes reaching the stratosphere. Most of the planet's population was concentrated near the shorelines.

History

Planet used as a mining world for both Clan Jade Falcon and Clan Snow Raven. After a time, these Clan's mines were depleted and York become a planet without strategical meaning. Eventually, Blood Spirits laid claim to rthe est of the planet by the Trial of Possession with the Falcons and the Snow Ravens. After gaining control of the planet, the Clan the moved the majority of its population to York to isolate itself from the rest of the Home based Clans. This changed a few years later, where the Spirits past dealings with their rivals from Clan Blood Spirit, revisited them in form of invasion of the planet. After humilating Spirits, the Star Adders was able to estiblish a small enclave for themselves.[2] Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
