OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Domed trade cities: Well-built domes of durasteel and transparisteel with a mix of short skyscrapers, apartment blocks, and commercial and residential districts no different to most other towns on Crossroads Prime. Has its artificial gravity set to 3.0G by law. Connected to other domes by enclosed roads and by hover train lines.
Large botanical domes: Well-built domes of durasteel and transparisteel with advanced environmental controls for their crops and livestock and the artificial gravity varies according to the crops or livestock.
Crossroads-23 Special Forces Advanced Training School: The primary training facility for all Crossroads Republic Special Forces. The gravity here is kept at a near-crushing 3.3G, encouraging the strong to get stronger and the weak to fall out. It also makes infiltration very difficult for those who are not accustomed to it to have very real issues and makes them easy to pick out. There are large artificial training areas in a variety of flexible environments ranging across dozens of different climates and environments. The facility is well-guarded and only accessed by a single hangar.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
One of a chain of fairly old colonies created by Crossroads to keep others from encroaching on their local space and built using newly-established methods and techniques developed by the New Start Colonization Firm. The colony is almost entirely inhabited by Crossroads Prime colonists. They haven't done anything of note in the past eight hundred years except for their artificial gravity being set to 3.0G because of the fact the locals believing that they would be stronger and healthier. What ended up happening was that the strongest and toughest Crossroads Prime troops inevitably come from Crossroads-23, and that despite the fact that they are the among the smallest of the colonies they are the highest proportional population in the Crossroads Republic Special Forces. It was no surprise then when the Crossroads Republic set up their SOCOM induction training facility here, and have maintained that honor for some time, although more specialty schools and the headquarters for the special forces are elsewhere.

- Description: A small moon colony with domed cities and towns. Each of them have decent manufacturing bases, with various civilian industrial centers and some military production plants building vehicles, weapons, equipment, and supplies. There's no atmosphere, and the surface is mostly gray and pockmarked with impact craters and the towns and cities are domed with very well-endowed with greenery with lots of parks, manicured medians, and yards for them. The overall purpose of this colony, like many others, is to create a bit of a small-town feel for the inhabitants who wish to live a quiet life. There's also large botanical domes, growing some exotic fruits and vegetables and some have pastures for more exotic livestock to get extra money. There are packing plants for these products for shipment out to other trade ports. Large surface mines mostly run by droids and small biological crews. All artificial gravity where people live is kept at 2.8G by law, but the botanical gardens are kept at their crops' or livestocks' natural state. Like other Crossroads colonies they have a moon-spanning shield generator system to protect it. Has several batteries of CDI "Fury III" Heavy Anti-Orbital Missiles for defending the moon and its populace as well as making any fight to take the moon far too costly to be worth the possible advantage.
