The Builders Enigma: Throughout Charted Space, there is an strange abundance of habitable worlds that cannot be explained by any current theory of planetary formation. Often, breathable atmospheres are found on planets too small to retain them over geologic time scales, gas giants have implausibly large satellites, or planetary orbits exist in ratios or locations that shouldn't be possible. Those oddities, combined with clear evidence of genetic engineering amongst both the major and minor races (most especially the obvious "genetic uplift" and transplantation of the Vargr), has led scholars to conclude that Charted Space was altered and shaped at some point in the distant past by an unknown intelligence or race, referred to as "the Builders".

Despite thousands of years of research, no trace of the Builders has ever been found.

Twin-Tech Industries: TTI is currently is the largest corporation in the Confederation of Lilain. While the bulk of its business is in electronics, Twin-Tech deals at least a bit in just about anything. Its recent acquisition of Razor Incorporated gives TTI a new role as a leading media consortium, and leaves it with nearly a ninety percent share of the communications equipment market.

The company was named after current CEO Amaranth Moore and her fraternal twin Allison by their late father Tiernan Moore, who founded the company in 1086.

Founded on 179-2169 on Eiland (Alderbaran 1006, C999941-D), The school itself is a luxurious and elaborate palace complex constructed almost entirely out of ice.
