Description:

A warm world, with an oppressive atmosphere and active volcanoes in all four of its great island chains, Athenry resembles prehistoric Terra in many ways. Tropical foliage and steep, rocky mountains dominate most of the four island chains that make up the planet's landmass. Too close to its sun for polar ice caps to form, the planet's most habitable regions for the early Terran colonists were the highlands of the large islands in the northern and southern latitudes, where the air is thinner and the heat more bearable. Frequent rains keep the lowlands of Athenry lush, giving rise to exotic flora and thousands of interesting animal species.

Many of the planet's native life forms, scientists learned, held great medicinal potential, leading to the founding of the Athenry Institute of Medicine on the primary northern island of Golas, in the Larsen Chain. The AIM was destroyed by a tactical nuke during the First Succession War, however, leaving only a radioactive hulk where the facilities once stood.

Athenry's capital city of New Senna is perched in the rocky mountains of Lisbon, the primary mass of the southern polar Espalar Chain. Though cities dot much of the Espalar, Zubeckis and Larsen Chains, only a few towns have been established on the mostly equatorial Wandessa Chain, largely due to the extreme temperatures and humidity of that region. Largest among these settlements is the seaport city of Ricobar, which serves as a port of call for the planet's oceangoing trade.
