Ixia

Sector 111
Aeron System (System 47409)

Ixia (Grid 204): Founded as a predominately Haeronii scientific colony, Ixia or "Ix" to locals, clings to its scientific heritage. The Ixians are the most noted scientists and educators among the Aeronii.
The Ixian cities are vast technological achievements highlighting stunning architecture. More scholars and university professors come from Ixia than all other Aeronii colonies combined.
Haelix Raes is the capital city, located along in Dhaeris Valley as it spills out into the Sea of Maerk.

Chasm City: The city is home to the Aeronii Physics Academy and the Subatomic Particle Accelerator. Unusual for Aeronii cities, the city is built kilometers high but on a narrow parcel of land between to cliff faces.

Tir Maeris: Located just north of the Arctic Circle, the city is home to the Tir Maeris Institute for Chemistry.
To conserve heat and power in the polar environment, the city exists as one single building, one of the largest structures in Aeronii space.
The city serves as a model for other major projects in Aeronii space. The Aeronii by nature, are a friendly, family-orientated people who value cultural exchange, the arts, and communication. These traits are heightened in Tir Maeris due to its unusual structure. The distinctions of property, class, place, and location are fuzzy at best, as neighbors exist in three dimensions rather than two. The close-knit culture of the city lends itself to strong community development, which fosters artistic expression and cultural awareness. It also tends to mean that Tir Maerisii have little use for personal space and are adept at tuning out distractions, learned from dealing with noisy neighors to the left, right, above and below. As such, many Tir Maerisii are excellent soldiers and law enforcement officers due to their ability to ignore distractions in the heat of combat or police actions.

Navigation within the structure takes place across bridges between vertical city blocks. While other Ixians and Aeronii see the Tir Maerisii as forward and often overly friendly, this also lends itself to a strong sense of community awareness and involvement that Tir Maerisii find lacking in other cultures of their people.

Caethlis: Designed as a museum for the architecture of the Altian Tribe and the human race, the city's skyline is reminiscent of all the technological achievements of ancient Earth. Notable schools in the city include the Aeronii School of Architectural Design, the Ixian Institute of Modern Architecture, the Caethlis Comparative Architecture University, the Ixian Campus of the Altian Architects Guild, and the Ixia Academy of Architecture Arts.
The interschool rivalry leads to some of the most innovative designs in Aeronii architecture
.

Taer Maexlon: The major schools are the Aeronii Fleet Starship Academy and the Taer Maexlon School of Ship Design. The planet of Mon Calamari and the Aeron Prime city state of Lorthaen are the patrons of Taer Maexlon.

Taer Raellia: Small campuses of the Biochemistry & Biophysics Universities are spread throughout the city of Taer Raellia. The students of the Ixian Biology Institute regularly traipse out into the countryside to study the unique lifeforms of Ixia.

Gyin Ukae: The Gyin Ukae Mechanical Engineering School builds most of Aeronii robotics while the Ixian Droid University and Aeronii Droid Educational Factory build and train military and civilian droids.

Haelix Marr: Lorthaen sends its best military specialist and tacticians to the Marrian Game Theory Academy.

Haerliji: Power stations and relays are spread throughout the city, home to the Haerliji School Electrical Engineering, the Biocomputer Institute of Ixia and the Aeronii Computer & Technology University.

Bhaendon: Some of the best Aeronii minds attend the Aeronii Mathematics Academy (AMA) or the Bhaendon Institute of Technology (BIT) with tuition paid by the Ixian government.

Muushi: The city of Muushi and the planet Myst jointly run the Muushian Psychic Training Academy & Research Center.

Haelix Raes: The Aeronii Weapons University specializes in mechs, planetary fighters and bombers and hand-held and starship weaponry.

The Ixian dialect is most like Haeron’s, noted for its multi-syllabic words and its often complex nouns and adjectives.
Capital: Haelix Raes
