Aurinko - the star of Svard system, Aurinko is a Class M RGB-III red giant. With a mass double that of Sol and diameter hundreds of times bigger, Aurinko is believed to have swallowed most of the inner planets.
Jatti - is the largest planetary body of Svard system. This Jupiter-class gas giant has captured most of the remaining planetary bodies of Svard into its orbit. It also presents a significant navigation hazard as its atmosphere is being slowly drained by Aurinko's proximity, creating a spectacular particle storm.
Svard - the largest moon of Jatti, it is possible that Svard used to be an independent planetary body until it was captured by Jatti's gravitational pull. Certainly the fact that most of the upper crust is composed of water lends credence to this theory, even though the average surface temperature is in -50 centigrade range. Thanks to the abundance of water, Svard became the primary inhabited body of the system despite the low temperatures. The population dwells in four large underground (or rather under-ice) hive cities and is ruled by the Crystal Council.
Cog - tectonically stable small moon, Cog would be unremarkable were it not for its abundance of rare earths and heavy metals needed for Svard's economy, as well as its stability which allowed for a huge Adeptus Mechanicus industrial facility to be constructed on the surface. Its proximity to Jatti, however, means that approaching Cog can be tricky at times.
Silence - technically the oldest inhabited place in Svard system, Silence is an asteroid that became settled by a group of religiously-motivated sculptors, artists and monks.
Installation 23 - the primary source of exports and the draw of Rogue Traders on the way to Ragged Worlds and Heathen Worlds, Installation 23 was a huge prometheum extraction and refinery station in low orbit over Jatti. Now lost in the particle storm and presumed taken over by the Whisperers, its loss is keenly felt by Svard.
