History:
Years ago, Tazer flew to Torus 5 and was amazed at the potential for the run-down station. He worked hard to rebuild it and it is now the hub for intergalactic travel. Tazer has become a very rich man and he doesn't take kindly to disruptions on his station, though the very nature of the place promulgates chaos. Alien species from far and wide call Torus 5 home, and it is a way-station for weary travelers to rest and restock supplies.
After establishing Torus 5 as a gateway for trade and travel, things seemed to be running well for the station. However, Suzaku, the molten planet nearby, had other plans. In an unprecedented violent eruption, it sent a blast of rock and energy toward the station, pummeling it and blasting through the shields. Some of the residents of Torus 5 escaped through the jump gate. Others were not so lucky. Now, Torus 5 rebuilds...
Money:
Trade and credits are the source of income. This is not a "perfect society" and greed is but one of the sins that have taken hold of the station. Fights break out, relationships are won and lost, lives are destroyed, and that's on a good day.
Gardens:
The gem of the station is the Botanical Gardens. Along the edges of the gardens are the Habitat Rings (or Habs), the Market, most of the Restaurants, and the Casino. Vendor booths are dotted throughout the gardens.
Entertainment
Tazer has outlawed hologram suites, finding that tourism to the nearby planets was more lucrative. For entertainment, visit the casino, bet on the pit fights, play in the Recreation Compound (gym, a theater, a large swimming pool, target range, and recreation lounge for hobbies) or visit the Alternative Environment compound which can be converted to any type of environment for training and recreational purposes. Gravity, light, temperature, etc can all be adjusted and four substrates can be moved into place, covering the floors, ceiling and/or walls: Water, Rubber, Synthetic grass, or Sand.). Those seeking relaxation would be wise to make an appointment at Tease Me, the station's spa, salon, and lounge.
Torus Gate:
In the center of the station's ring, is the Torus Gate. It allows jumps to areas far away in the system and beyond. Tazer has hired top engineers and scientists and pays them well.
Docking Bays:
The docking bays are enormous and can hold anything from a small shuttle to a galaxy class starship. Repairs, of course, will cost you.
Medical Care:
The infirmary has recently undergone a change of ownership and now sports the best medical care in the system. Universal Alliance Insurance is accepted, though paying customers are welcome, too.
Safety:
Care is recommended when walking the corridors. Watch your money, curb your attitude, and you'll do okay.
Welcome to Torus 5. May you live long enough to make us rich.
