Sultonia
A frontier oasis, half-finished and halfway habitable
Galactic Co-ordination System: Horizon, CASSITER-7
Sultonia lies on the frontier of Alliance space in the Horizon arm of the galaxy: the last port of call before the rich and pirate-haunted Helium Lanes, on the edge between the Alliance and the unknown. Even after decades of terraforming, it remains arid, inhospitable and alien – but those have settled here are rightly proud of what they have survived in order to build their home. It is a planet of isolated farmsteads, frontier towns, star-burned deserts and long nights. It is a land of hard work and easy charity, free from the complications and presumptions of more developed worlds.

Naming Conventions
Following planetary naming conventions is optional, but helps mark someone as being a citizen of a planet.
Sultonia has no unified naming structure, having only been safe for sheltered colonisation for 85 years and open to general colonisation for 45 years. Sultonians will draw on family names from where they were from before moving, or will form their own community name structures for each colony. An offer is always made to new Sultonians: you may choose a new name to match your new life should you wish. Some will adopt or establish a new surname, and less commonly may also change their given name.
When outside of their home, they may choose to use their colony name as a prefix to their given name. Any individuals born as Sultonians but not on the planet (for example on a spaceship) may also use the prefix "Starborn".
