Capsule: A frigid planet locked in an ice age, Tantra is located in the Metharian Nebula Territories.  It has two continents, but since most of the seas are frozen and the landmasses are buried under a kilometer of ice, settlements have sprung up with little regard to whether there is actually land underneath or not.
To escape the numbing cold and toxic atmosphere, Tantrans live in buildings totally isolated from the outside by sealed walkways, underground complexes, and elevated monorail systems.  Its spaceport landing pads are located in huge shallow dishes constructed of resin and ferrocrete-reinforced ceramics, to keep the heat of starship exhausts from melting the ice under the spaceport.
Tantra is the jump-off point for traffic routes which lead to Coyn and other worlds of Elrood Sector.
