Sephirot such as [[Pelinese Sephirot (A1-0)#Fuyuhi|Fuyuhi]] and [[Pelinese Sephirot (A1-0)#Fuka|Fuka]] prefer to maintain a heavy station presence around Pelinese-inhabited systems for military, industrial, communications, and other purposes, creating a strong demand for station construction capacity in Pelinai. Smaller communications relays, observation posts, weapons satellites, and other installations are manufactured whole and en masse in order to provide a steady supply of quick-deploy infrastructure; ship docks, heavy weapons platforms, logistics hubs, and other larger stations are too massive to be efficiently transported whole and are instead mass-produced in sections to be assembled on-site. Orbital stations, including weapons and communications constellations as well as other utility stations, are ubiquitous in Pelinai; most planets and moons not used for resource harvesting typically receive at least one constellation, and core planets like [[Shizuka (A1-0)|Shizuka]] possess significantly greater orbital infrastructure.

The Heavenly Guardianship of Pelinai is a spacefaring nation located in the Shizukana Expanse, in the west of Sector A1-0, bordered by Ferristia to the west, the Colonus Pact to the north, the United Coalition to the east, and the Galactyan Empire to the south.

Major Systems & Worlds

  • Shizuka System: A central joint in the telecommunications network connecting the Sephirot to the many ships, stations, and facilities residing within the Shizukana Expanse; may also hold some significance to Pelinese religion. Shizuka’s location is classified, and its status as a starless planetary system renders it nearly impossible to locate.
  • Asahikari System: A four-star system consisting of two binary star systems nested in a larger binary orbit, Asahikari is the largest star system in Pelinai by both number of stars and number of planets. The 44 planets in and around Asahikari, along with their many moons, are heavily fortified with both orbital weapons platforms and planetside defense systems. The collection of bodies also hosts a substantial portion of both the Pelinai Space Navy and the Pelinese industrial base. The planet Asahikari 4-7, AKA Haruhana, is a large oceanic world and is one of the most significant garden worlds in Pelinai.
  • Kuroikū system: A black hole system providing much of the raw material for Pelinai’s manufacturing.
  • Umihi system: An A-class star system functioning as a recycling center and storage depot for nano-agent.

Politics

Economy

Fuka is the Sephirah responsible for managing the factories, shipyards, and other production facilities used by the Kingdom of Pelinai, as well as allocating various amounts and types of manufacturing capacity to the other Sephirot. The lack of any population of non-Sephirah sentient beings in Shizukana means that Pelinai has no trade, money, or other “economy” in the traditional sense of the word; instead, the Sephirot place requests for specific ships, stations, and other manufactured items that are then produced by Fuka and transferred to them.

Industry

Industrial infrastructure is extremely widespread across planetary and orbital environments in the Shizuka Expanse, although the extent of development varies widely depending on factors such as useable construction area, allocation of planetary and orbital zones to other purposes, and proximity of the system to the core territory of Pelinai. The Sephirot make widespread usage of scaleable, prefabricated, and self-expanding infrastructure architectures in order to facilitate the rapid establishment and expansion of new production zones; example systems of this type include prefabricated whole satellites and stations, orbital ring station sections, and Nan-O planetary conversion modules.
The largest single-system concentration of industrial capacity in Pelinai is the Asahikari system, followed by Aohikari, Akataiyō, and Sekiei.

Shipyards

Dedicated shipyards capable of producing spacecraft to military-grade specifications are extremely common in Shizukana’s many Pelinese systems; most orbits around Pelinese planets and moons have at least one station dedicated to producing ships, and additional facilities may be located planetside. Manufacturing the large quantities of ships used for mining, industrial, logistics, military, and other purposes, as well as replacement components for them, constitutes a significant portion of Pelinai’s resource consumption and industrial output.

Spacecraft

Technology

Nano-agent

Pelinese vessels, stations, and other equipment substitute the maintenance and repair functions performed by a living crew or macroscopic maintenance robots with a liquid called nano-agent or Nan-O, which circulates through Pelinese technology and is capable of transporting supplies like fuel and ammunition, mending damaged cables, internal components, and hull plating, and attacking hostile boarding parties. Nan-O also possesses capabilities such as color/transparency modulation and adaptability into pseudo-solid forms mimicking other materials, allowing it to function as a base material for the avatars used by Pelinese Sephirot to interact with foreign lifeforms.
Nan-O is capable of replicating itself on command by consuming and integrating certain types of foreign materials, such as those that commonly comprise lifeforms and those that comprise certain types of planets. Nan-O is sufficiently temperature, radiation, and pH-resilient to replicate unimpeded in most planetary and orbital environments, allowing for it to be used as a weapon of world destruction or a large-scale recycling tool.

Infrastructure

Planetside

Orbital

Fuyuhi and Fuka choose to maintain a dense system of orbital infrastructure around systems under Pelinese control in order to provide critical functionality in communications, manufacturing, energy generation, logistics, defense, and other sectors that support the activities of the Sephirot and the Heavenly Guardianship of Pelinai. Commonly deployed station types within the Shizuka Expanse include communications relays, orbital weapons platforms, orbit-planetside cargo transfer terminals, military and utility vessel basing facilities, energy production stations of various types, space observation satellites, and multifunction planet-encircling ring stations. Many of these infrastructure systems are produced whole or in prefabricated flat-pack modules in order to facilitate large-scale manufacturing, ease of inter-system transportation, and swift on-site deployment.

Communications & observation platforms

Energy facilities

Pelinese energy and fuel production facilities make use of an extremely wide variety of production processes, which are selected for optimal yield based on local circumstances and available resources. The most widespread type of energy production facility by fraction of total energy generation is the star-orbiting solar energy satellite. Many millions of these satellites are deployed in large megaconstellations covering most built-up Pelinese systems, and produce energy by absorbing starlight and using particle accelerators to convert the absorbed energy into highly portable antimatter that may be transferred onto logistics drones and distributed to consuming systems.
The second most widely applied energy generation method in Pelinai, after solar-antimatter complexes, is conventional fusion reaction using helium and hydrogen harvested from gas giants. These systems are used to power low-consumption systems in locations where their fuel is readily available from the environment, as well as an alternative primary fuel source for the conventional energy-antimatter supply chain.
