Known far and wide as teh "gypsy planet", Paquin is home to more carnivals and sideshows, galeries and theaters than you could shake a cruiser-sized stick at. It also seems to be home to every conartist and swindler in the system.
When it was being terraformed, Paquin was chosen to host a grand opera house. Paquin's unique atmosphere produces sunrises and sunsets the likes of which would lift even teh burden of death, with colors ranging from purple to blue to red to orange. This stunning display provides a wonderful natural backdrop for the opera house, which is located on the shore overlooking a vast ocean.
As the new opera house brought theater lovers to the planet, more theatres were built to take advantage of the new trade. Paquin is the place to see all manner of entertainment from Noh theatre to experimental dance. Many new plays debut here, and those that become popular travel to the Core where they play for the Elite. Artists and writers make Paquin their home to be "closer to the muse". Paquin is the artistic center of the Border worlds and rivals Sihnon in terms of culture.
Like other worlds, Paquin has a dark side. Countless carnivals and sideshows dot the world, providing good honest entertainment for the prairie folk, featuring circus acts and magic shows, freaks and jugglers. But there are those carnies who exist purely to fleece their patrons of all their cash or use their bright lights as a cover for even darker activities.
