Arla Un is an icy, non-agricultural and preindustrial world, whose surface is ice-capped and with nearly all of its water frozen.
- It is unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
- It is a world working toward being an industrial powerhouse but lacks an adequate workforce to do so. It must now import many of its manufactured and high tech goods.
- It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Sanches Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
- This world has a nearby Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.
Description (Planetology)[edit]
Arla Un has been subjected to multiple large impacts that stripped away much of its lithosphere and crust, leaving the metal-rich mantle exposed.

Mainworld Topography and Geography[edit]
An oceanic slurry of water, tar and sulphuric acid moves along longitudinal cracks and canyons, as well as through deep veins under the surface. A high degree of volcanic and tectonic activity results in an ever-changing geography with crumbling hills and mountains.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Starport[edit]
Arla Un has two Class-B downports emplaced in mobile cities, one on tracks and the other on a gravitic platform.
Urbanization[edit]
There are three city types:
- Underground cities have been placed in relatively stable pockets, far away from volcanism and underground acid oceans.
- Surface ‘cities’ are wheeled or tracked platforms that slowly rove around the planet.
- Gravitic habitations float close to the surface to avoid direct exposure to the powerful rays of Kir Aikhalingas.
Surface and gravitic cities use a combination of imagery and data collected by rad-shielded satellites and heat-shielded rovers and drones to guarantee their safe transit around the world.
