Intai'sei

Prerequisite: Pinnacle Station: Combat Missions

Description
An atmosphere similar to Earth's made Intai'sei an early candidate for human colonization. However, prohibitively high temperatures and an arid climate have proven a hindrance to terraforming and agriculture. A few human cities were founded, but the majority of the human population on Inta'sei remains scattered across the vast deserts, operating wind farms and geological research stations.

Details
Intai'sei is added with Pinnacle Station to the Phoenix system after a successful download of the Pinnacle Station: Combat Missions module. However, landing is not possible until after Commander Shepard beats the combat missions aboard Pinnacle Station, and earns the assignment Pinnacle Station: Convoy. Shepard wins access to a private apartment on the surface with amenities such as a radio, grenade resupply locker and a medi-gel station.

It is highlighted on the Galaxy Map as "Shepard's Apartment".

Trivia

 * Intai'sei's orbital period is 47.8 Earth years whereas its neighbouring planet has an orbital period of 94.5 Earth years making it unlikely to be the fifth planet of the Phoenix system. Its orbital period suggests a location in between Tuntau and Sylsalto, at a distance of nearly 16 AU from the star Phoenix.
 * The name for the planet may be taken from the Japanese noun "intaiseikatsu" (隠退生活) which means "secluded life."
 * Intai'sei can also be conveniently read in Japanese as 引退星 ("retirement planet").
