Rahne is a small world without adequate water or growing seasons.  Major dust storms fling themselves across the planet creating a need to protect exposed machinery.  This has helped to hamper aboveground exploration of Rahne's gemstone and radioactive deposits.  Geologists calculate that another larger planet collided with Rahne early in its life; they theorize that this collision created the planet and its moon, Caliban.

No one knows how native life managed to evolve on the planet. One of the creatures, the Rahne toad-fox, is typical of the animals found on the planet. During the Storm and Calm seasons, it only comes out at night. It uses its foot-long ears and ten-inch poisonous claws to kill its prey, usually slimy rock-huggers. During the Cold season, it seeks out a mate by drumming on its chest. This attracts a female and they both bury themselves in the mountainside by digging through the rock. They live and give birth in this hole during the Melting season.

===Planetary History===
'''Rahne''' is a small world without adequate water or growing seasons.  Major dust storms fling themselves across the planet creating a need to protect exposed machinery.  This has helped to hamper above-ground exploration of Rahne's gemstone and radioactive deposits. Geologists calculate that another larger planet collided with Rahne early in its life.  As a result of this collision, they theorize, the planet and the moon, Caliban, were created.
+
====Age of War====
 +
In [[2405]], the [[Free Worlds League]] raided Rahne; [[Bruce Marik]], eldest son of [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Peter Marik (24th c.)|Peter Marik]], was killed during the raid.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 16: "Struggle Between Marik and Parliament"</ref>
  
Severe weather conditions, partly from the massive moon and from the planet's one sea, continuously arise on the planet. It has four seasons: Storm, Calm, Cold, and Melting.  "Of the four, Melting is the most dangerous, as temperatures rise above 100 degrees Celsius."<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)]]'', p. 170</ref> Each of these seasons last for 21 days.<ref name=HBS89/>
+
====First Succession War====
 +
During the [[First Succession War]] Rahne was the target of an offensive by the [[Free Worlds League Military]] that in [[2817]] saw the [[Star League Defense Force]] base on the planet crippled. One of the officers within the FWLM forces was [[Charles Marik (29th c.)|Charles Marik]], future [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] of the Free Worlds League.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p31">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 31: "The Second Succession War"</ref>

====Fourth Succession War====
 +
In October [[3028]] the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] repositioned a number of frontline units as the [[Free Worlds League Military]] launched [[Operation DAGGER]]. One of the units repositioned were the [[Second Donegal Guards]], who were relocated to Rahne; the LCAF strategic intent wasn't to prevent a League invasion, but rather to make invading forces pay more dearly for any gains and slow the progress of any breakthrough.<ref name="FSWMAv1p63">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 63: "Overview"</ref>

The Rahne system was host to at least one habitable world, Rahne IV, and as of 3151 was located in the Wolf Empire.[3]

System Description[edit]

Rahne is located near the Fianna and Pardeau systems.

Rahne is a small world without adequate water or growing seasons. Major dust storms fling themselves across the planet creating a need to protect exposed machinery. This has helped to hamper aboveground exploration of Rahne's gemstone and radioactive deposits. Geologists calculate that another larger planet collided with Rahne early in its life; they theorize that this collision created the planet and its moon, Caliban.

Severe weather conditions, partly from the massive moon and from the planet's one sea, continuously arise on the planet. It has four seasons: Storm, Calm, Cold, and Melting. Of the four, Melting is the most dangerous, as temperatures rise above 100° Celsius.[34] Each of these seasons last for 21 days.[1]

No one knows how native life managed to evolve on the planet. One of the creatures, the Rahne toad-fox, is typical of the animals found on the planet. During the Storm and Calm seasons, it only comes out at night. It uses its foot-long ears and ten-inch poisonous claws to kill its prey, usually slimy rock-huggers. During the Cold season, it seeks out a mate by drumming on its chest. This attracts a female and they both bury themselves in the mountainside by digging through the rock. They live and give birth in this hole during the Melting season.

The only seasons that humans can go outside the subterranean cities are during Calm and Cold. The other seasons are too dangerous.[34] Fortunately the subterranean nature of the gems and radioactive ores allows Rahne's inhabitants to work year-round in relative safety.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

Age of War[edit]

In 2405, the Free Worlds League raided Rahne; Bruce Marik, eldest son of Captain-General Peter Marik, was killed during the raid.[35]

First Succession War[edit]

During the First Succession War Rahne was the target of an offensive by the Free Worlds League Military that in 2817 saw the Star League Defense Force base on the planet crippled. One of the officers within the FWLM forces was Charles Marik, future Captain-General of the Free Worlds League.[36]

Fourth Succession War[edit]

In October 3028 the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces repositioned a number of frontline units as the Free Worlds League Military launched Operation DAGGER. One of the units repositioned were the Second Donegal Guards, who were relocated to Rahne; the LCAF strategic intent wasn't to prevent a League invasion, but rather to make invading forces pay more dearly for any gains and slow the progress of any breakthrough.[37]

Military Deployment[edit]

2786[edit]

3028[edit]

3038[edit]

3050[edit]

3054[edit]

3079[edit]

- Deployed across Solaris and Rahne, the unit was at 75% strength, with 90% of their equipment featuring upgraded technology.

Geography[edit]

Rahne has three continents: Tempestia, the primary continent, and Tsunamus and Pyrammus, which are southern continents. Most settlements are located below ground.[1]

Planetary Locations[edit]

  • Rahne City: capital city[44]
  • New Fiji: subterranean hydroponics communes[1]
  • Pyrannus Mons: mountain range[1]
  • Shawmut Springs: subterranean city, location of Zettle Metals Incorporated[44][45]
