Qresh

Qresh
The dwarf planet Qresh was originally the only inhabited body in the Kallis star system. Half of the planet is under water and reclaiming every inch of land on Qresh is a priority.

Over time the planet's population grew until the environmental weight of the citizens began to exceed the planet’s natural resources and damage its ecosystem. Scientists and politicians began looking beyond their borders for more resources and a place to dump their refuse. “The Company," the powerful corporation inextricably linked with the politicians and ruling families on Qresh, began to colonize the planet's moons.

Now the planet is the home of the elite artists, politicians, scientists, inventors, business class and philosophers of the system. To be a citizen of Qresh a person must own ancestral land, and all Qreshi citizens get shares in the Company, so the more land that is owned the larger the amount of shares and the greater influence in the Company.

Ancestral lands on Qresh are owned by members of the Nine families of the Company. A Qreshi cannot bequeath or inherit land until they turn eighteen, so young members of the Nine families will have a Legal Guardian to manage their lands until they come of age.

Today, after offloading much of its population to its moons, Qresh has become an oasis for the elites of the Quad: artists, politicians, scientists, inventors, corporate tycoons and respected scholars. While immigrating to Qresh is a dream held by many, it is rarely realized: land rights on Qresh are deeply entrenched in hereditary claims and "old money" family lineage, leaving little room for new citizens to carve out a niche.
