System Manual:Ravouin

Ravouin is the jewel of the Lyarna System. Covered in dense rain forests and mountain ranges, cloud-cover and rainfall are commonplace, resulting in uncounted numbers of spectacular waterfalls and fresh water pools. The tropical rain forests contain literally millions of types of vegetation and thousands of species of animals and insects, many of which have yet to be catalogued.

Details

The Commission Estates are located around Ravouin Plaza in the centre of the city of Gawain. They consist of massive, heavily fortified and awe-inspiring castles and manors of every conceivable shape and form. Each commission member has a estate to claim as his/her own while they are in power (with the exception of the Tactician; see Sol'rahl), however they are all overshadowed by the splendour of the Dark Prince's Palace. Often compared to the seat of Imperial Power, the Dark Prince's Palace is said to rival that of former Emperor Palpatine himself. It is a sight so dazzling; it has been known to strike wonder into even the most stoic of men.

In the front of the Commission Estate there are the statues of the Guild's Grand Masters. These statues are sculpted out of marble and each stands over 16 feet tall, looming over all who enters the Commission Estate. Ex-Grand Master Night and Grand Master Royal's statues are cleaned on a regular basis to ensure that they are kept in tiptop condition. Ex-Grand Master Tuz's is another story though, his is lacking a head. Some bounty hunter chose to express his artistic ability by blasting it off.

Branching off of the plaza, away from the estates, is the Bounty Hunters Guild library, medal archive, Hall of Fame, central archive, recruitment centres for the Kabals as well as some of the best weapons, armour and equipment stores in the sector.

Ravouin has the primary spaceport of the System, the Spaceport of Tristram. Tristam is located near Gawain, the largest city in the System. Gawain thrives on black market commerce, and is home to many Black Market merchants. Security procedures, instituted by the Bounty Hunters Guild, require that all travellers to the Lyarna System check in at Tristram before being allowed passage to Gawain and the rest of the system. The Guild's Capital Ship, Ivanhoe is docked at the Platform Planetoid Cernun, that orbits Ravouin. The Administration personnel and Hunters transport to and from the Platform on their personal fighter ships.

Moons

Meyu

Meyu is a dark and foreboding moon, with dangerous and unpredictable weather patterns. Thunder storms, dust hurricanes and tornadoes of all sorts are constantly plaguing the surface. What's worse, due to the heavy cloud cover, the light from Zahnis never penetrates to the surface, leaving Meyu in a constant state of darkness. Although Meyu is treacherous it provides the perfect home for a Kabal and the Kabal Authority!

Dispite the hostile climate of the moon, many hunters have chosen it as their homes. Mainly due to them being so close to the KA, but still in a largely secluded location. Many of the Bounty Hunters Guilds groups have chosen this moon for their base too. The old Kuko team used it for quite some time. They used to have a network of cloud cities, floating around above the storms, out of harm's reach. They provided an extra defensive layer to what is now know as the Kabal Authority. One of those old floating cities has recently been converted by Ehart Dak`wind. It's now one of the systems premier night spots. E's Hotel and Casino. He didn't really have much flair for naming the place, but still it sure pulls the crowds.

Joining E's floating city in the sky is another huge floating complex. It's Dragon Kabals main HQ Apocalypse. It's a purpose build weapons factory, built a few years back for one of the Kabals old Chiefs, and former Tactision Xerokine. The Kabals offices are fitted in-between the different factory units. The factory mainly produces weapons for Karn Weapon Industries.
