Planets: Feros 行星：Feros |
|
 取得地點： |
Feros is a habitable world in the Attican Beta cluster. Two-thirds of the habitable surface is covered with the ruins of crumbling Prothean megalopolis. In the millennia since the Prothean extinction, the ruins have been picked over by looters many times. Feros was considered a poor prospect for colonization, as little open ground remains for agriculture. The only sizable fresh water sources are the poles, which are tapped by the decaying Prothean aqueduct system. The dead cities, while in good condition considering their antiquity, are of uncertain stability. Ground level is congested by a dozen meters of fallen debris, and the air is fouled by dust. In 2178, the human ExoGeni Corporation announced its intention to place a permanent colony on Feros, to thoroughly explore the ruins. The pioneer settlement was placed on the upper levels of the several intact skyscrapers, using the surviving Prothean aqueducts and rooftop hydroponics gardens to support the population. Feros是阿提卡β星團中一個可居住的星球。三分之二的可居住面積被傾頹的波希安都會遺跡覆蓋。在波希安族絕跡後的數千年間，遺跡已遭掠奪者多次洗劫。 Feros被認為沒有殖民的前景，因為只有殘留少數開放土地可供農耕。唯一大量的淡水來源是極區，經由殘破的波希安水道系統引入。這個死城，雖然以它的年代來看仍相當完整，但穩定性值得存疑。地表層充塞著十幾公尺深的掉落殘骸，空氣也被灰塵汙染。 在2178年，人類ExoGeni企業宣布打算在Feros建立永久殖民地，以對遺跡進行全面性的探查。拓荒者群聚落腳於一些完整摩天樓的頂層，使用殘存的波希安水道與屋頂水耕農園供養整個群落。 |
Planets: Ilos 行星：Ilos |
|
 取得地點： |
Like the ancient human city of Troy, Ilos is a world known only through second-hand sources. References to Ilos have been found at several other Prothean ruins, though direct study of the world is unlikely to occur. Ilos lies in a remote area of the Terminus Systems only accessible by the legendary Mu Relay. Four thousand years ago, the Mu Relay was knocked out of position by a supernova and lost. Since then, Ilos and its cluster have been inaccessible. Occasionally, a university will organize an expedition to chart a route to Ilos using conventional FTL drive. These never get beyond the planning stages due to the distance and danger. The journey could take years or decades, passing through the hostile Terminus Systems and dozens of unexplored systems. 就像人類的古城特洛伊，Ilos是一個只能經由第二手資料來源瞭解的星球。在許多波希安遺跡中都有提及Ilos，然而直接研究這個星球已不復實現。 Ilos位於邊境星系群的偏遠地區只能靠傳說中的穆轉運站到達。四千年前，穆轉運站被超新星爆發震離所在位置而消失。自此以後，Ilos與它的星團變得難以到達。 有時候，會有一些大學想要組織探險隊使用FTL驅動航行探索出到達Ilos的航道。這些想法因為路途的遙遠與危險都只停留在計劃階段。整個旅程將耗費數年或數十年，還要穿越充滿敵意的邊境星系群與許多未探索的星系。 |
Planets: Noveria 行星：Noveria |
|
 取得地點： |
Noveria is a cool, rocky world, with most of its hydrosphere locked up in massive glaciers. A privately-chartered colony world, the planet is owned by Noveria Development Corporation holding company. The NDC is funded by investment capital from two dozen high technology development firms, and administrated by an Executive Board representing their interests. The investors built remote hot labs in isolated locations across Noveria's surface. These facilities are used for research too dangerous or controversial to be performed elsewhere, as Noveria is technically not part of Citadel space and therefore exempt from Council law. By special arrangement, Citadel Special Tactics and Reconnaissance agents have been granted extraterritorial privileges, but it remains to be seen how committed the Executive Board is to that principle. Given its unique situation, it is understandable that Noveria is often implicated in all manner of wild conspiracy theories. Noveria是一個冰冷，崎嶇的星球，大部份的水層都鎖在巨大的冰河之中。這是一個私人租用的星球，整個行星由Noveria開發企業控股公司(NDC)持有。NDC由二十餘個高科技開發集團的投資資本集資建立。由代表其利益的執行董事會管理。 投資者在全Noveria表面偏遠的地點建造隔離的高危險實驗室。這些設施用來進行在其他地方被認為過度危險或具有爭議性的研究計劃，因為技術上Noveria不屬於要塞空域因此免除議會法律上的限制。 依據特殊協定，要塞特殊戰術與偵查幹員擁有治外法權，但這得視執行董事會對這個原則有多尊重。因其獨特的情勢，可以想見Noveria經常被牽扯進各種大膽的陰謀論中。 |
Planets: Virmire 行星：Virmire |
|
 取得地點： |
Virmire is a lush world located on the frontier of the Attican Traverse. Its vast seas and orbital position on the inner life zone have created a wide equatorial band of humid, tropical terrain. Only the political instability of the region has impeded efforts at colonization. Many times, the Citadel has opened negotiations to settle Virmire with the various criminal gangs and petty dictatorships in the nearby Terminus Systems. All fell apart due to internal power shifts within the opposing parties. The Citadel has written off the colonization of Virmire as impossible without significant political change. The Terminus powers themselves are unlikely to ever settle Virmire. Most lack the resources to support settlement of a virgin world, finding it more expedient to steal from their neighbors than build for themselves. Virmire是一個位於阿提卡走廊邊境的蒼翠星球。它的廣大海洋與位於生命區內緣的軌道位置創造出一條濕潤，熱帶地貌的寬廣赤道帶。但此區域的政治不穩定性卻阻礙了殖民的努力。 許多次，要塞與鄰近邊境星系群的各犯罪幫派和卑劣獨裁政權開啟談判以解決Virmire的爭議。但都因對立團體中的內部權力轉移而導致談判四分五裂。要塞對Virmire殖民歸納出結論認為除非有重大的政治改變否則不可能。 邊境勢力本身不可能開拓Virmire。大部份都缺乏支援殖民處女星球的資源，並認為與其自已建造倒不如從鄰居手中偷來還比較方便。 |
Region: Terminus Systems 地區：邊境星系群 |
|
 取得地點： |
The Terminus Systems are located on the far side of the Attican Traverse, beyond the space administered by the Citadel Council or claimed by the human Systems Alliance. It is populated by a loose affiliation of minor species, united only in their refusal to acknowledge the political authority of the Council or adhere to the Citadel Conventions. Their independence comes at a price; the Terminus is fraught with conflict. War among the various species is common, as governments and dictators constantly rise and fall. The region is a haven for illegal activities, particularly piracy and the slave trade. At least once a year, a fleet from Terminus invades the nearby Attican Traverse. These attacks are typically small raids against poorly-defended colonies. The Council rarely retaliates, as sending patrols into the Terminus Systems could unify the disparate species against their common foe, triggering a long and costly war. 邊境星系群位於阿提卡走廊的遠端，遠在要塞議會所管理或人類星系聯盟所佔有的太空之外。它住著一群鬆散結盟的次要種族，因拒絕承認議會的政治權力或遵守議會公約而團結。 但他們的獨立性卻要付出代價；邊境充斥著衝突。各種族的戰爭十分常見，政府與獨裁者不斷起起落落。這個區域是非法活動的天堂，特別是海盜與奴隸販賣。 至少每隔一年，就會有來自邊境的艦隊侵略阿提卡走廊周邊。這些攻擊通常是針對防禦薄弱殖民地所發動的小型掠奪。議會鮮少反擊，因為派遣巡邏隊到邊境星系群反而會聯合這些不同的種族團結抵抗他們的共同敵人，觸發冗長與慘痛的戰爭。 |
Uncharted Worlds 未知星球 |
|
 取得地點： |
There are between two and four hundred billion stars in the galaxy, and less than 1% of them have ever been visited or had their systems properly surveyed. Humanity's early expansion into the Attican Traverse was haphazard; a desperate race to claim habitable planets where populations can be economically settled. Ignored in the wake of this land grab were thousands of less hospitable worlds, each potentially rich with industrial resources. The wealth of entire solar systems remain untapped, waiting for corporate survey teams or independent pioneers to discover and exploit them. This, however, is not an easy task. In addition to the environmental hazards, the fact that uncharted worlds are largely ignored makes them popular bases for criminals, revolutionaries, cults, and others who wish to remain unnoticed by galactic society. 銀河系約有二千到四千億的恆星，其中只有1%曾被探訪或其星系有被正式調查過。 人類在阿提卡走廊早期的擴展相當雜亂無章；只管拼命競相佔領人口能經濟安定的可居住星球。在這場活躍的土地搶奪戰中成千個較不舒適的星球被忽略，每個都蘊藏著豐富的工業資源。一整個太陽系的資源保持原封不動，等待著企業探堪隊或獨立的拓荒者去發現與運用它們。 然而，這不是一件簡單的工作。除了環境的危險，還有未知星球不為大部份人所知的特性使它們常用來當成罪犯，革命者，邪教徒，與其他不想被銀河社會注目者的基地。 |
