- Planet Name: Recluse
- Demonym: Reclusian
- Region: Wild Space
- System Name: Candar
- System Features: The Candar System has a single blue star at its center, with three gas giants and two terrestrial planets within the system. There are four distinct asteroid belts across the system, located between each of the gas giants, where the close proximity of the planets together tore apart the few moons they had.
- Location: Ganath’s Hex
- Major Imports: Durasteel, mechanical tools.
- Major Exports: Wood furniture, Stone Appliances, Cloth and Wool
- Unexploited Resources: Gold, silver, and obsidian.
- Gravity: Earth Like
- Climate: Temperate
- Primary Terrain: Grassland, Forests, Mountains
- Atmosphere: Type One
- Capital City: Towers of the Sunset, Land's End
- Planetary Features: Recluse has only a single, massive continent on its surface, though there is evidence of several smaller continents laying just beneath the surface of the worlds ocean. On the primary landmass, numerous cities are built across its surface, connected by the Great Highway. Two massive mountain ranges dominate the western end of the landmass, and several lakes can be seen from orbit.
- Major Locations:
- The Towers of the Sunset: The Fortress home of Clan Westwind, the Towers of the Sunset is the name given to the large complex of structures built by the Clan deep within the West Horn mountains. A majority of the complex itself is built within the mountains, with numerous windows and terraces leading out onto stone carved bridges connecting the various mountains. The name for the complex itself comes from the two large obsidian towers built on the highest peaks of the West Horns, and can be seen even as far away as Land's End. The Towers of the Sunset serve as the secondary capital of Recluse, and the primary military stronghold on the world.
- Land's End: Land's End is the capital of Recluse as a whole, and is home to the only spaceport on the planet, where all regulated off world trade takes place. Almost every structure in Land's End is built of a black marble, with open windows allowing for the breeze of the ocean to flow through the port city. The largest structure within Recluse is the Academy of Pointless Violence and Useless Information, though it is commonly shortened to simply The Academy. The Academy serves as the governing seat of the High Council of Masters.
- Jelicho: Jelicho is generally seen as Recluse's second city, with the largest population center on the planet other than Land's End. Primarily a town of trade, Jelicho is located in the middle of the East and West Horn's mountain ranges, and is generally seen as the divider between the two. Large walls are located to either side of Jelicho, to protect it from the natural beasts that roam the mountains, as well as mad cultists.
- West and East Horns: The West and East Horn's mountains are located across much of the western quarter of the landmass Recluse is on. The East Horns are generally more hospitable, with temperate weather and a few locations capable of supporting life. The West Horns are of worse condition, covered almost entirely year round by snow fall, and the home of a majority of the cultists that wage constant war against Recluse.
- Great Highway: The Great Highway is a road system that has been built across the entirety of the only continent on Recluse. Every city is connected to the Great Highway, and it is kept clean and well maintained by the cities located closest to each segment. In times of need, the Great Highway also serves as the primary means of moving the Councils Militia across the world.

POPULATION
- Native Species: Human
- Immigrated Species: Human
- Population: Moderate
- Demographics: 100% Human
- Primary Languages: Galactic Basic, Mando'a
- Culture: The people of Recluse commit themselves, from the moment the wake up, until the second they fall asleep to perfection in all that they do. Children are raised from birth to commit themselves to an orderly, communal style of living; where their lives are dedicated to ensuring the betterment of the task they have chosen in life, and enhancing the lives of those around them through their own actions. Religion is generally seen as a distraction to those on Recluse, and they instead have faith in what they simply call Order, and work actively in their lives to prevent Chaos from consuming them. Those who cannot find a place in the Orderly ways of Recluse are separated from society, and sent on a Dangergeld, a journey that anyone whom the Masters of Recluse determine to have too much Chaos in their souls, and pose a risk to the Order of the planet. Dangergelders can be of almost any age, though it tends to be the youth of society who are too rebellious to fit in to the 'boring' and tedious ways of Recluse. The people of Recluse see the Dangergeld as necessary for their society to survive, despite the fact many of those who undertake the journey never returning. Part of the Dangergeld is sending those members of society with a more militaristic and aggressive mindset to the West Horns, the mountains that dominate the western reaches of Recluse, where if they survive the journey through the mountains, have a chance of joining Clan Westwind, Mandalorians who have long since called the world their home.
- Government: Oligarchy
- Affiliation: Clan Westwind, High Council of Masters
- Wealth: Wealthy, the way of Order on Recluse encourages each member of society to have a job, seeking to commit themselves to perfection no matter how menial the task is. Apprenticeships are highly encouraged among the various towns and cities, providing the youth a chance to earn wealth and education as they grow older, before becoming a practicing master in their chosen field. Those who cannot find a place in Recluse society are forced to leave the world, and return with a new skill, or a better understanding of themselves to enhance society.
- Stability: High, all members of Recluse society submit themselves to the Masters, whom oversee every aspect of Recluse. Those who may resist or cause trouble on the planet are exiled off world through the Dangergeld, and may only return once they have come to understand the necessity of Order, and the understanding the Masters have of it.
- Freedom & Oppression: Despite the overreaching control of the High Council of Masters, the people of Recluse have numerous freedoms. Those who have proven to be hard working and honest members of society have little restrictions against them, and are largely self regulating and self enforcing citizens.
- Military: Recluse has no standing military specifically, though Clan Westwind, a Mandalorian Clan based on the planet, act as the primary line of defense. Clan Westwind maintains only a small force of warriors on the planet, with limited orbital defense weaponry.
- Technology: Other than Clan Westwind's domain, Recluse lives in a stage of limited industry. Most businesses and production on the planet are done by hand, with entire guilds of various masters in their field overseeing hundreds of new apprentices every year. The most advanced weaponry available to Recluse is a blaster rifle based around a single firing cartridge that must be loaded after every shot, developed by the Masters after long observation of the Mandalorians in the mountains. This is not to say that the people of Recluse do not understand advanced technology, for they have built and maintain a galactic standard and modern spaceport for trade. Advanced technology, when not called for by necessity as it is for off world trade, is generally frowned upon, as an avenue to Chaos.
