Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Gazulin is a Big World between 15,200km and 16,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 1.1G and 1.5G. The horizon will appear about 5.7km away. Vessels with only 1G of thrust should avoid landing on this world.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Gazulin has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Gazulin has 55-65% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has significant large liquid bodies. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Gazulin is the subsector capital. The system contains a Naval Base, a Scout Base, and an archaeological site that is believed to have been built by the Ancients.

Gazulin has attempted to retain its pre-eminence in the subsector by controlling trade from Tobia and by emphasizing its cultural influence. But with each passing generation the nexus of power in the subsector slips coreward.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Gazulin has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
