1. Overview

a.k.a. Ngyhonh

Sigma Draconis is a K0V star 18.81ly from Terra. It is also known as the Nguyonh system, home of the Nguyonhi, and the capital of the KingTraihLeague for some time.

1.1 Ong Tuhn

Gravity: Good
Habitat: Poor
Colony: Great
Resources: Superb

Ong Tun is an odd planet. It is extremely heavy, yet terrestrial, and orbiting just outside the Roche limit of Sigma Draconis.

1.2 Nguyonh

Gravity: Good
Habitat: Poor
Colony: Great
Resources: Superb

Nguyonh is the homeworld of the Nguyonhi people. The original colonists modified themselves heavily to adapt to the world. The world has a very high surface gravity, and little water. It orbits perilously close to the inside edge of the habitability zone for the Primary. The world's primary trade resource is its monopole fountains. Its strong magnetic field drives monopoles out of its polar regions.

1.3 Bang Hai

Gravity: Mediocre
Habitat: Terrible
Colony: Mediocre
Resources: Poor

Bang Hai is a strange world in that it is very large and yet has no significant atmosphere. Its surface does show signs of erosion, so it would appear that it did have one until relatively recently. It is the home of large Drive Laser installations that have proved vital in defending the system.

1.4 Sun Sho (asteroids)

Gravity: Mediocre
Habitat: Terrible
Colony: Good
Resources: Fair-Great

Sun Sho, the innermost of the system's two asteroid formations, is a true asteroid belt. It is populated by another highly modified subspecies of genetically enhanced humans. These are modified to require less natural sunlight, food, and air. They are far more at home in weightless environments and don't suffer from vertigo or many of the growth defects that usually accompany living in such an environment.

1.5 O-Shuiyun

Gravity: Poor
Habitat: Terrible
Colony: Mediocre
Resources: Terrible

O-Shuiyun is a small rocky body of little note or interest.

1.6 Sun Ang

Gravity: Mediocre
Habitat: Terrible
Colony: Good
Resources: Poor

Sun Ang is another asteroid formation, but it only covers about 36 degrees of its orbit. These asteroids are inhabited and mined by the same subspecies and Sun Sho. Many of these asteroids show evidence of formerly being part of a planetary body. Again, this system indicates an interesting, but unexplained, history.
