The Quinvimf System is an important center for exodian research. The first planet, Dabros, is an arid world that is the subject of ongoing experiments conducted by the Luna Sylvestry Co-op in terraforming. Ironically, the nearby planet Gugora is completely covered in liquid water, which is subject to dramatic tidal forces from its moon that result in periods of shallows and periods of water several kilometers in depth. Constructed on the ocean floor is the prestigious Gugora Science Academy. The system has an additional water world, Nawa. Nawa's climate is considerably more hospitable, with clear warm waters, friendly wildlife, and pockets of floating marine vegetation that have become crucial in the local industry. This planet is host to the Ecolorel Health Center, which is one of the few Family corporations allowed to operate in SCO space. It excels in the development of both common and revolutionary medical procedures, to say nothing of the luxury resorts, therapy staff, and "masseuses".
The Gugora Science Academy is a set of large buildings constructed on the ocean floor. During low tide, the campus is accessible by any normal surface vehicles and small space craft, however, during high tide the structures are completely submerged, and the only traffic in and out are through immersibles. A common prank played on new students is to convince them to do field work just before the colossal tidal waves can be seen on the horizon.
