Frixion VI, a planet in the Frixion System system, is the racial homeworld of the Nusriza.

This vast planet has a slightly lower gravity than Earth despite its large size, and its atmosphere is cloudy and oxygen-rich.

The planet's surface is largely uninhabited, as the dense cloud cover of its atmosphere prevents sunlight from reaching it more than a few times a year. This meteorological phenomena occurred tens of thousands of years in the past, and led to the Nusriza civilization's lofty architecture. Below the clouds, the surface of the planet is a barren, chilly wasteland, uninhabitable by the warmth-loving race. Occasional trips to the surface can be made by researchers or terraformers, but almost all Nusriza life takes place in its vast, sky-bound settlements and cities, like the capital, Mir, from farming to manufacturing to the launch of ships.

Nusriza architecture is open and airy, taking full advantage of the vast, breathtaking views they enjoy in the clouds. Travel between settlement clusters, offices, entertainment districts, Algerion farms, factories, and other habitations is accomplished by short-range teleport, transport pods, skirls, or an open, rather risky form of transport called 'cloudfin' - a type of fan-lifted overboard (very popular with young Nusriza whose wings have just been shed).
