Verithspace

A Rich and Vibrant sphere Booming with economic trade. Enjoying a prolonged time of hard won peace following the War of Roses 60 years prior, Verithspace and her Allies within the Coil Junction enjoy the fruits that peace has wrought. A relatively Standard Sphere by conventional ranking, it is home to a fair number of celestial bodies and they in turn play host to a diverse macrocosm of life. The Inhabited core worlds that orbit Chauntea or “Great Mother” sit in a veritable goldilocks zone encircled by the Goddess’ Belt Asteroid Field where beyond that the Gas Giants; Gygax, Great Guard, Erathis and Illmat orbit in quiet vigilance encircle once more by the Glass Gates Asteroid Belt. This Abundance and Safety has allowed the Verithian Empire to grow and Expand. 
== Culture ==
The Empire boasts an eclectic culture with a lifestyle and architecture aesthetic that pulls from the 18th century British Empire and Old Arthurian Great Britain, with Nekhemri displaying a distinct 18th Dynasty Eygptian flavor. Morden runs with a more Mid to Early 18th century French flair, with Meloris nestled softly in a 17th Century Irish and Colonial United States Aesthetic. The Empire is truly the collected result of its Noble heritage and Rich Naval history along with the many diverse and varied worlds that reside under the Verithian Banner. And Whilst many of the Verithian Worlds have their own vibrant cultures themselves there are stand out traits such as a shared Bravado and Confidence that unifies the spheres inhabitants.

==Religion==
Verithians, since the fledgling days of the Empire have held the belief that they are observed by the divine and that they work their will from beyond the Celestial Veil. The Verithian State Religion is a polytheistic belief in a pantheon of Gods, that as the empire has grown has grown as well. There are however religions that are forbidden within Verith as their dogma’s and followers are dangerous and morally questionable. These beliefs have led to the discrimination of some races such as Tieflings, and Golbinoids. While a majority of the Sphere Denizens worship the Pantheon at large, there are some like The Dwarves of Morad and Dragon-kin of Nekhemri and some of the Beast-kin that venerate their own racial religions where-in some of their gods have been canonized into the Imperial Pantheon.
==Demographics==
While home to a Primarily Human Population, various other races can be found in Verithspace. With Larger populations densities of other races appearing on the other worlds of the sphere has led Theologians and Arcanist to posit that the populations of Dwarves, Goblinoids, Beast-kin and Draconid somehow arrived on the crown world of Yal’rena via a celestial event during the world’s infancy. With any appearance of Plane-touch being relegated to outside influence. Beast-kin, Goblinoids face a fair amount of stigma given their monstrous appearances and stories and tales that painted them in negative light. Draconids tend to be seen for stereotypes that can be attributed to the dragons they claim lineage whereas Dwarves, Gnomes, and Halflings faced little cultural bias(A by-product of their “Familiar Appearance”) The Firbolg of  Yal’rena while naturally occurring vary greatly from contemporary portrayals of their races. Firbolg share the stature of others of their race but Yal’renian Firbolg are more cervine in appearance, with males even sporting Antlers. Given their appearance they tend to face similar hurdles as beast-kin but a shared history with Humans of Yal’rena since the founding of the first Empire brings them into a standing akin to Dwarves and other Human appearing races. Warforged have thrown a wrench in the mix following the War of Roses. Following the War they have had to integrate with the civilian populace, it is not uncommon to see a Warforged on any Verithian planets.
==Celestial Bodies==
The Sphere of Verithspace is not as Fantastical as Belospace, nor as Unforgiving as Polyyshar. With a Grouping of planets residing within an Asteroid belt and orbiting a small yellow star. On the outer reach reside Gas Giants and the Glass Gates; a gargantuan field of asteroids that Encircle the System in its Entirety.
