Vortalcoy was a part of the [[Timbuktu Province]] of the Rim Worlds Republic and is located near [[Merlynpede]] and [[Viborg]]. Although Vortalcoy is detailed on maps within [[Handbook: Major Periphery States]] up until 2750,<ref name="HB:MPSp25"/> none of the maps from later eras present in the Handbooks series of sourcebooks extend far enough into the Periphery to confirm or deny the continued presence of this system during the Succession Wars era.

Vortalcoy
System Information
X:Y Coordinates-485.09:81.77[e]

The Vortalcoy system was home to at least one habitable world or construct and as at 2750 was located in the Timbuktu Province of the Rim Worlds Republic.[1][2]

System Description

The Vortalcoy system is located near the Lande and Merlynpede systems.[1][2]

System History

The Vortalcoy system was either settled during the Star League era at some point after the end of the Reunification War or was an already-settled system that became significant enough to cause Inner Sphere nations to record its location.[3][2] Vortalcoy vanished from maps during the First Succession War,[4] indicating that the system had been abandoned, depopulated, or rendered too insignificant to merit further recording on maps.
