Encyclopedia Entry

The whole of Avarice is plagued by repeated thermal pulses, emitted by the star at the heart of the system. The resulting waves of stellar particles ripping through the system are colloquially referred to by the local inhabitants as "the Tide". Despite the great speed at which the Tide advances, it takes a few moments to engulf the entirety of the system. Avarice V is the sector furthest away from the centre of the system and, as such, is afforded some advanced warning of its approach; other sectors are hit at barely a moment's notice.

Another notable feature of Avarice as a whole, but especially this rather remote sector, is that it plays host to an unusually large number of space-time anomalies. These anomalies began to appear during the latter half of the system's period of isolation, but their number seems to have grown significantly since the gate resumed its function. Whether the increase in the number of anomalies was triggered by the re-connection to the Jump Gate network, was caused by some sort of inherent instability of the system, was in some way connected to the emergence of the Tide, or was even entirely coincidental, is a topic of much debate amongst scientists and scholars.

Notes
