The IISS first surveyed the system in 1048 as part of the Second Survey. The two week visit found the human stone age tribe and several other mammals. The tribe hunts a large sea dwelling carnivore which it uses for a variety of uses. . The tribe relishes the hunting of the creature and celebrates the hunt in stories and in dance. Bone carving is one of the tribe’s pastimes. They also gather fruit and nuts from the jungle to add to their diet. Volcanic minerals are used to create weapons to hunt the creatures and to carve the islands trees to make sea going canoes.
There are seven large islands covering the planet each about roughly 3,800 square km. Each island contains various mammalian, reptilian and insect life. The seas are home to a variety of species as well. Volcanic activity was also noted. No large deposit of minerals was noted in the 5 week survey of the system.
There was no activity in the system during the Fifth Frontier War. After the war the Imperium annexed the planet. Recently the IISS has sent a survey team to the planet to investigate slow decrease of the population. The Donosev class ship has left from the main subsector scout base at Karin.
The "government" of the planet is class C. There is a chief of each village on the planet. The humans survive by fishing in the ocean and growing small gardens. They create weapons from volcanic minerals found in the mountains in the center of the islands.
