During the [[Star League era]] Dalkeith was a beautiful world with a population of more than two billion. During the [[First Succession War]], the [[Draconis Combine]] launched more than a dozen 100-megaton nuclear weapons against the defending [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] troops. These weapons, combined with chemical weapons, were sufficient to destroy the Lyran defenders, a [[Castle Brian]] complex, and nearly the entire population. In [[3075]], the planet's population barely reached three hundred million. The effects of the nuclear strike were still felt, with an atmosphere high in carbon dioxide and micro dust particulates. The inhabitants needed to wear filtration devices to breath this atmosphere, but as a small compensation they had a higher resistance to certain types of radiation.<ref name=FCCW197/>

The Dalkeith system is home to at least one inhabited world, Dalkeith V, and as of 3145 is located in the Skandia Province of the Rasalhague Dominion.[2][3]

System Description[edit]

Dalkeith is located near the Orestes and Sakhalin systems[2][3] and consists of a class K5V primary orbited by at least five planets.[1]

System History[edit]

The Dalkeith system was settled prior to the Age of War and was a part of the Tamar Pact prior to the formation of the Lyran Commonwealth, becoming a Lyran world once the Commonwealth was established in the mid-twenty-fourth century.[4]

Dalkeith V, more commonly known simply as Dalkeigh, is the fifth planet in the Dalkeith system and has four moons: Dal-Mar, Dal-Ra, Dal-Rue, and Dal-Tal.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

During the Star League era, Dalkeith was a beautiful world with a population of more than two billion. During the First Succession War, the Draconis Combine launched more than a dozen 100-megaton nuclear weapons against the defending Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces troops. These weapons, combined with chemical weapons, were sufficient to destroy the Lyran defenders, a Castle Brian complex, and nearly the entire population. In 3075, the planet's population barely reached three hundred million. The effects of the nuclear strike were still felt, with an atmosphere high in carbon dioxide and microscopic particulates. The inhabitants needed to wear filtration devices to breathe this atmosphere, but as a small compensation they had a higher resistance to certain types of radiation.[1]

Dalkeith remained inhabited because of the large number of radioactive and heavy metals located under the Alveria mountain range, vital raw materials for the LCAF's war machine.[1]

Geography[edit]

Dalkeith has three continents named Dunnbar, Rockmeir, and Devarick. The world is notable for the presence of the Alveria mountain range, a rich source of heavy metals and radioactives.[1]

Planetary Locations[edit]

  • Alveria: a mountain range on Dunnbar[1]
  • Newhaven: the planetary capital, destroyed during the First Succession War[1]
