Orbital Station Two also known as the "Deuce" is a vast space station in the Quyth Concordia. Larger than even the Creterakian Space Station Emperor One the Deuce is one of the largest artificial structures in the known galaxy; it is second only to Orbital Station One. While the Deuce is technically a space station and major manufacturing facility, it also possess the the ability to enter Punch Space which actually makes the Deuce one of the largest space-fairing vessels in the Galaxy.

Structure

The Deuce is said to look like a giant Sea Urchin with hundreds of massive hollow spines shooting outwards from a central spherical core. The spines are approximately two-miles long by an eighth of a mile thick. The spines are actually alive; they are a silica-based organism that grows in a dense crystalline matrix. The organism can easily be compared to bacteria as they grow, feed, and reproduce in numbers beyond comprehension. Only the outside of the spike is alive the interior is only dead skeletons but is incredibly dense and hard. It is the Crystalline matrix which gives the spines their strength and allow them to grow to such massive lengths. The Quyth can use the spines to vent energy from the Station's core to propel the station in any direction. The spines also act as the Station's framework. Massive crossbeams connect the spines and serve as a framework for future expansion of the Deuce. To add this additional mass, huge asteroids are brought in to add additional living space which is supported by the crossbeams.

History

The Deuce has been growing for almost three-hundred years old. The Deuce, like it's sister stations the Ace and the Trice, were the Quyth's first attempt to circumvent the massive overcrowding on the planet Quyth. During the Massive Creterakian takeover of the galaxy, the orbital stations were uniquely able to defend themselves against wave after wave of Creterakian boarding ships. The outside of the deuce could not sustain life and as such the Creterakians would have to try and overwhelm the Quyth Shaft defenses to gain access to the internal living areas. Even when the Creterakians were able to make a beach head inside Shaft number 2, the Quyth sealed off the shaft and destroyed it with nuclear weapons; This would kill all the Creterakian Boarders as well as any Quyth left in the shaft. It is estimated that over two-million Quyth Died in the fighting while a rough estimate places the Creterakian casualties at Twenty-Two-million.

Demolition Stadium

Demolition stadium is home to the Galactic Football League team named the Sky Demolition. The stadium itself is significantly smaller than its counterpart on Ionath. With five-hundred rows of seating the stadium is described as a freeze frame of a closing book. The field surface is a pale, milky white with blue yard markers. The surface is Tiralik which is very springy and giving which is very giving and cuts down on injuries. Tiralik's downside is that is stains jerseys badly.
