House Fanel had named this planet Gaia, name of the Greek Goddess meaning "land" or in all technicality, another name for "Earth". Since no major power would dare to risk ships to lay claim to this unstable area surrounding the Gaian system, House Fanel was able to enjoy living undisturbed from outside problems until they decided to go out of their new home system and bring back technology to advanced themselves. Though in anticipation of any of the more aggressive powers in the quadrant, House Fanel had developed their own defenses, and a star force. There is no actual accounting by any of the major powers on the strength of the Fanelian Star Force and entire military, but based on the structure on how House Fanel operates, any individual man and woman of House Fanel is fully trained and capable of fighting in the name of his or her House. That being said, the total number of fighters, defenders, and serviceman in the Gaia system can literally range from thousands to millions. | House Fanel had named this planet Gaia, name of the Greek Goddess meaning "land" or in all technicality, another name for "Earth".

Every major city on Gaia has a constant dampening field to prevent the usage of particle weapons of any kind within the cities. It is a way to enforce the law against modern weapons. Hence this also prolongs the tradition of the way of the sword. | Every major city on Gaia has a constant dampening field to prevent the usage of particle weapons of any kind within the cities. It is a way to enforce the law against modern weapons. Hence this also prolongs the tradition of the way of the sword. With this established, the rights of the population is very loose and free. Weapons are allow, and because in the major city, particle weapons are useless, many people wear swords or other blade weapons about them. It is reported that some have fallen back to using kenetic projectile weapons. | ||
