* Many of the traits of the [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame Squats/Leagues of Votann]] in ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' are because they're from the galactic core. They were originally humans who were sent to mine the minerals in the core worlds, but they were genetically modified to be hardier and live in heavily protected fortresses.

To top it off (at least in our galaxy the Milky Way), while most of the stars there are old as the galaxy itself and has little on what refers to star-forming material, one can find at its very center a ''lot'' of young stars that include some of the most luminous known, often crammed in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arches_cluster very dense]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintuplet_cluster star clusters]], and enough interstellar matter to form similar ones in the future. It's in fact expected that some hundreds of millions of years in the future enough gas will accumulate in the galactic center to transform said very center in a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starburst_region starburst region]], with both copious amount of star formation and supernovae, stellar winds, and radiations.

Just for starters, the closely packed stars, and their proximity to the supermassive black hole which forms the center of the core, make life in the core constantly interesting thanks to chaotic gravitational interactions. Stars can be flung off into deep space or into the core, directly collide with one another to merge (or explode), or even be ripped apart and cannibalized by larger neighbors[[note]]This of course means things are ''very'' bleak there for planetary systems[[/note]]. And that's after you consider the fact that all of those stars and the core itself are constantly pouring out vast amounts of radiation across the entire spectrum. If there are planets out there, they must have truly [[AlienSky weird skies]], full of the ‘fuzz’ created by the light of billions of old, but still ridiculously bright stars in close proximity to each other.

** [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seyfert_galaxy Seyfert galaxies]] are the least luminous type, but that's very relative; they're defined as galaxies with AGNs where the rest of the galaxy is still detectable - the nucleus is still emitting energy on the level of entire galaxies. Some of these are close enough to be the strongest radio sources in Earth's sky.
