Doko Ba is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.
- As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
- It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Regulus Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.

Mainworld Data[edit]
Doko Ba is a tidally locked world, but unlike most worlds of that classification the population is not forced to live solely in the twilight zone.
Mainworld Size (S)[edit]
This world is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]
This world has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.
Unusual for a tidally locked world the sunward facing side of the world has comfortable temperatures due to convection winds and currents flowing from the dark side.
Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]
This world has 65-75% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has significant large liquid bodies. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Doko Ba is an agricultural world located in Regulus Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
This world has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World Population (P)[edit]
This world has a population of 1,000,000 sophonts (millions).
- This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.
World Government[edit]
This world is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referendum, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.
World Law Level (L)[edit]
This world has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All blade weapons and firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
World Technology Level (TL)[edit]
This world possesses a Technology Level of TL–8.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics, improved telephones, and satellite communication and data networks.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Improved geothermal and improved batteries.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Advanced automobiles.
- Water: Triphibians and early artificial gills.
- Air: Improved helicopters and hypersonic jets.
- Space: Space shuttles, early space stations, and improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
World Military[edit]
Doko Baism preaches pacifism as a core tenant. The system has only a minimally sized Home Guard that was founded shortly after the pirate raid in 1107.

World Demographics[edit]
The population of Doko Ba is majority pure Solomani descendants of original Terran settlers. The world's historical tolerance has led to its reputation as a potential safe haven for Vilani, so a growing minority from the border subsectors have settled on the planet.
World Culture[edit]
This planet is famous for its warm climate, the beautiful sandstone buildings of its starport, and the quiet faith of its population. The Doko Baists follow a religious, mystical faith descended from Buddhist and Sufi roots that teaches the value of all sophont life. The most important religious structure on the planet is the Cathedral of Sentience.
Historical Data[edit]
Doko Ba was founded at some point after the Ninth Interstellar War by Buddhist and Islamic settlers from the central Asian region of Terra. Over the millenniums since original settlement the religious traditions of both faiths have merged into a mystical faith known as Doko Baism. The system joined the Solomani Confederation shortly after its founding, but follows a fringe belief that the Solomani people will lead the universe through spiritual enlightenment and pacifism, leading to their minimal participation on SolSec monitoring. This lapse of security was one of many causes of a major pirate attack on sacred sites shortly after the end of the Solomani Rim War. Priceless religious art remains lost.
