1420:Exordium Expedition

TripTik158 Expedition Highlights

Introduction

Visit the new capsuleer starting region and conduct a field survey of its space and stations, capturing a record of where every pilot’s story first takes shape.

Locations

Overview: Exordium Region

Established in YC128 through a joint initiative of CONCORD and the four major Empires, and administered by AIR Laboratories, Exordium is a high-security region dedicated to the earliest days of a capsuleer's career.

To provide a focused learning environment, access to the region is intentionally limited through a single stargate in the CONCORD system of Yulai, within the Sanctum constellation of Genesis, reducing outside influences while new pilots find their footing.

For many capsuleers, Exordium is where their journey truly begins. Across its nine constellations, new explorers are introduced to the essential skills of navigation, combat, industry, and exploration before departing for the wider reaches of New Eden.

Though sheltered by design, the region serves as the first chapter in what may become a lifetime of discovery among the vast and often unforgiving stars.

Regional Structure

Inside Exordium, nine (9) constellations present themselves to the intrepid explorer.

The Manifest District, along with the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Accord Districts, form the central structure under AIR Laboratories administration.

The four Empires each maintain an embassy constellation:

  • Amarr Empire — “Haven”
  • Minmatar Republic — “Strokar”
  • Caldari State — “The Crucible”
  • Gallente Federation — “Federation Free-Zone”


CONCORD CORE REGION

The Manifest District

Entrance to Exordium is via the impressive CONCORD style stargate in Yulai which will deposit travelers into Manifest.

Once inside you will be placed roughly 2,500 km from Manifest X a pretty Oceanic planet backlit by the stunning nebula of the region. From here explorers may travel to the eight other constellations that make up Exordium There are three stations of interest here in Manifest: Manifest IV – Moon 5 – Paragon Fulfillment Center


Manifest V – AIR Laboratories Trade Center

Manifest VI – CONCORD Bureau


1st Accord District

Made up of 6 systems - Fortitude, Gallant, Lustre, Mettle, Repute, and Venerate Of these systems, only Gallant lacks a point of interest. Fortitude A quiet system bathed in the glow of a K7 orange star with only the Fortitude III – Poteque Pharmaceuticals Biotech Production center, a classic Gallente design, available for weary travelers

Lustre Aside from a small G3 (Pink) star illuminating the Sisters of EVE Bureau at Lustre VI little else presents an opportunity for finding adventure

Mettle A dead-end system attached to Gallant, Mettle does have, hanging above the temperate planet Mettle IV, an AIR Laboratories station which provides some rest for pilots moving through the 1st Accord District

Repute Yet another system attached to Gallant, Repute IV hosts another AIR Laboratories station

Venerate Venerate VII hosts pilots through the presence of an AIR Laboratories classic style station


2nd Accord District

Made up of 6 systems - Adroit, Celerity, Erudite, Forte, Ratiocinate, and Sagacity. Adroit Aside from the AIR Laboratories station around Adroit V little else offers a distraction to a pilot out on a roam.

Celerity The gateway system to the Caldari managed constellation of The Crucible, Celerity is a simple K3 class system with a Mercantile Club Bureau sitting just off Celerity V – Moon 1

Erudite A single system accessed via Forte, the quiet in Erudite is broken only by an AIR Laboratories station on the dark side of Erudite III lit only by the regional nebula and the raging storms of Erudite III

Forte A hub connection to 3 dead end system CONCORD’s DED section holds a station at Forte V – Moon 2 – DED Assembly Plant in an otherwise unremarkable G5 stellar system

Ratiocinate Offering a link to the 1st Accord District’s Lustre and the 3rd Accord District’s Lenity systems there is a Gallente style station operated by the Inner Circle Bureau around Ratiocinate IX, a lovely, temperate planet but little else offers itself up here to be visited.

Sagacity Another dead-end system reached via Forte; AIR Laboratories offers services to capsuleers in their station nestled against Sagacity VII


3rd Accord District

Made up of 6 systems - Lenity, Rigor, Solemn, Tenacity, Triumph, and Valiance Of these only Triumph lacks points of interest. Lenity Floating above Lenity V the Society for Conscious Thought’s Genolution Biotech Research Center sits open to members of the New Eden community.

Rigor Providing entry to the 3rd Accord District from Manifest, Rigor V provides some sustenance for travelers at the Native Freshfood Warehouse

Solemn A dead-end system off Triumph, Solemn V holds a single AIR Laboratoires station above a nondescript Strom planet

Tenacity A cul-de-sac system off Triumph, Tenacity VI holds an AIR Laboratories station

Valiance Soley attached to Triumph. Valiance IV – AIR Laboratories provides the only respite from the emptiness of space in this system


4th Accord District

Made up of 6 systems - Abstention, Chivalric, Couth, Decorum, Equity, and Steadfast Of these only Decorum lacks points of interest. Abstention This dead-end system hanging off Decorum has Abstention V – AIR Laboratories as the only local point of interest.

Chivalric Aside from the searing glare of the B5 class star (White Dwarf), only Chivalric II hosts an AIR Laboratoires station

Couth Couth sees two stations for explorers to investigate Couth III – Moon 1 has an Inner Zone Shipping Storage station flooded with light from the local nebula’s stellar nurseries.

Meanwhile Couth VIII – Moon 4 holds a CONCORD Assembly Plant of Caldari design.

Equity Little of interest here aside from Equity V – AIR Laboratories.

Steadfast Gateway to and from Manifest, Steadfast hosts a Station at Steadfast IV – Moon 1 operated by Nurtura Warehouse. Lit by the local G5 (Pink) star the station floats quietly in the dark.


EMPIRE EMBASSY CONSTELLATIONS

While administered as part of Exordium, each Empire maintains an embassy constellation reflecting its own institutions, architecture, and administrative presence. Together, these constellations offer distinct regional identities within a unified training region.


THE CRUCIBLE (CALDARI STATE)

State embassy constellation under Caldari administrative control and corporate-aligned capsuleer integration infrastructure.

Made up of 7 systems - Aldoras, Dyka-hau, Hotak, Kita-Aino, Pamirasu, Tatrys, and Urtasvaar Of these Dyka-hau and Urtasvaar have no sites of interest.

Aldoras Aldoras hosts the Caldari State’s Science and Trade Institute station orbiting Aldoras VI, presented in the classic Caldari industrial design tradition.

Hotak The Caldari State has positioned two stations in Hotak.

The first, located at Hotak III – Moon 1, is the State’s Caldari Navy Logistic Support Station.

The second is a Deep Core Mining (DCM) station at Hotak IX, backlit by the regional nebula.

Kita-Aino The gateway into and out of the Caldari State’s constellation presents a Chief Executive Panel station perched above Kita-Aino V – Moon 8. Several peripheral hangars and structural components encircle the central station.

Pamirasu The School of Applied Knowledge hosts new capsuleers in a station above Pamirasu VI. The Storm-class planet below offers little beyond its turbulent atmospheric systems.

Tatrys Tatrys hosts Exordium’s Caldari Shipcaster and two additional stations.

The State Rookie Shipcaster is encircled by peripheral station components similar to those at Kita-Aino. It provides a one-way transfer to Onnamon in the Black Rise region.

The State Protectorate Logistic Support Station floats roughly 250,000 km from the Shipcaster at Tatrys V – Moon 3.

Meanwhile, the House of Records Information Center offers administrative respite at Tatrys II.

Urtasvaar No recorded points of interest.


FEDERATION FREE-ZONE (GALLENTE FEDERATION)

Federation embassy constellation operating under decentralized administrative oversight and academic–industrial capsuleer development networks

Made up of 7 systems - Axiosere, Ligare, Maso, Mondaekus, Rotonos, Tiberis, and Waison Of these Maso and Waison lack points of interest.

Axiosere This system holds two stations for Exordium explorers.

Axiosere V – Moon 1 hosts the Federation Navy Logistic Support Station designed in classic Gallente architectural style.

Meanwhile, the Astral Mining Inc. Mining Outpost hovers above Axiosere VII, appearing rugged and industrial in contrast.

Ligare Ligare V hosts the University of Caille. Aside from this academic presence, the system contains no further recorded points of interest.

Maso No recorded points of interest.

Mondaekus The Gallente Federation Shipcaster is located in Mondaekus, providing one-way transit to Intaki in the Placid region.

Nearby, approximately 350,000 km away, lies the Federal Defence Union Logistic Support Station at Mondaekus IV – Moon 1.

At Mondaekus VIII, the Federal Intelligence Office Testing Facilities present a structure reminiscent of Sisters of EVE installations observed in Thera.

Rotonos Rotonos hosts a Gallente-style station managed by the Center for Advanced Studies in the shadow of Rotonos IV – Moon 2.

Tiberis Tiberis serves as the primary access system into and out of the Gallente constellation (aside from the local Shipcaster).

A single station is present, managed by the President Bureau above Tiberis VII – Moon 1, heavily augmented by surrounding station infrastructure.

Waison No recorded points of interest.


HAVEN (AMARR EMPIRE)

Imperial embassy constellation under Amarr administrative oversight

Made up of 7 systems - Adaz, Ichorah, Kanta, Mazor, Sakizra, Taikud, and Vaejra Of these only Sakizra and Vaejra lack points of interest.

Adaz Adaz acts as Haven’s entry point linking deeper into the constellation. Adaz V has the honour of being the location of the Emperor Family Bureau. Sandwiched between two asteroids and lightly obscured by its debris field, the station is simple but striking.

Ichorah This system, centered on a small K3 yellow star, hosts Haven’s shipcaster and two stations. The Imperial Rookie Shipcaster at Ichorah IV provides a one-way transfer to Mehatoor in the Devoid region. Nearby sits the 24th Imperial Crusade Logistic Support Station, drawing capsuleers toward factional warfare. Ichorah VII – Moon 1 hosts the Ministry of Internal Order Testing Facilities.

Kanta Kanta holds only the Royal Amarr Institute located at Kanta IV, a massive ice world installation familiar across Amarrian space.

Mazor Centering on a B5 white dwarf, Mazor presents the Hedion University station at Mazor V, set against a striking gas giant backdrop.

Taikud Connecting all systems within Haven, Taikud appears as an empty crossroads. Taikud IV hosts the Amarr Navy Logistic Support station, while Taikud XI – Moon 1 hosts the HZO Refinery Mining Outpost.

Sakizra No recorded points of interest.

Vaejra No recorded points of interest.

STROKAR (MINMATAR REPUBLIC)

Minmatar embassy constellation under Republic administrative oversight.

Made up of 7 systems - Dettisolin, Dranga, Hofs, Lang, Tindfjalla, Tungna, and Vatna Of these Hofs, Lang, and two additional systems lack points of interest.

Dettisolin Home to the Republic’s Rookie Shipcaster and supporting stations. The structure sits isolated at Dettisolin V, providing a one-way transfer to the Amo system in Metropolis. Dettisolin II hosts a Tribal Liberation Force Logistic Support station, while Dettisolin VII – Moon 2 hosts the Republic Security Services Assembly Plant.

Dranga Dranga III hosts the Republic University campus, positioned between a dust ring and a nearby lava planet.

Tindfjalla Tindfjalla IV hosts the Minmatar Mining Corporation Outpost, while Tindfjalla V hosts a Republic Fleet Logistic Support station.

Tungna Tungna IV – Moon 1 hosts a classic Minmatar station operated by the Pator Tech School.

Vatna Vatna III hosts a Republic Parliament Bureau station. Its positioning between asteroid clusters mirrors architectural patterns observed in Amarr Haven systems.
