Overview
Between the planets Longpoint and Hecht lies an asteroid belt in orbit around the sun Lanth. The belt covers about 85% of its entire orbital path, so travelers will almost always encounter the belt when traveling past Longpoint.
Inhabitants
The asteroid belt is inhabited by small pirate bands that are usually at war with the local officials. Most pirate groups are chaotic and disorganized, except for one notable group called The Gray Sword.
