Khebha has both an unbreathable thin atmosphere and a lack of surface water making habitation by sophonts difficult. The system supports a population of fewer than 10,000. It is a member of Julian Protectorate in the Tsahrroek Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector and in the Rukadukaz Republic. Khebha does not have the presence of Imperial Nobility. 80% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

History & Background / Dossier[edit]

One of the Notable Worlds, Khebha is notable for being a largely Ovaghoun Vargr world, with few Vilani residents. As such, she is held up by leading Ovaghoun pundits as the model of what the Ovaghoun should become, speaking with a voice that’s a good deal louder than her low population would suggest. (The trade networks that link her with the rest of the Republic help here as well.) Her original settlements – Vargr and Vilani alike – were vaporized by the Imperium during the Julian War, something that the current inhabitants have not forgotten.

Languages[edit]

World Starport[edit]

Khebha 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.

World Technology Level[edit]

Khebha possesses a Technology Level of TL–14 or TL-E in Hexadecimal Notation.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early meson communicators.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Miniature super-batteries, early collectors, and advanced fusion plants.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:

World Government[edit]

Khebha is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.

World Economy[edit]

In addition to the trade nexus here – letting visitors peek at all sorts of goods from all sorts of places – there is a local market of very wealthy and connected Vargr packs, interested in very rare, very expensive, and very desirable goods and artifacts from across Charted Space. It still isn’t nearly as powerful and influential as the super-elite luxury industry on Ikon (Empty Quarter 1602)… but, if you know the rules of the road, it has some surprising charms...

Historical Data[edit]

In the first century of the Republic, this world served as the capital of the starnation, an honor it’s definitely interested in regaining. Even today, an unusually large percentage of the Rukadur – the masters of the Republic – hail from this world, thanks to the powerful Ovaghoun packs who have sunk their fangs into this world. As the observer might predict, they tend to be hostile to both Imperial and Ikonic interests, and strong supporters of the current structure of the Rukadukaz Republic.
