Mape is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • In a technological universe, societies without industrial capability generally suffer as nearly all manufactured and high tech goods must be brought in at significant cost.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Rull Subsector of Foreven Sector.

Mainworld Geography & Topography[edit]

The small polar ice caps have some spectacular jagged razor ice cliffs and gorges. The relatively low gravity and thin air combine to allow landforms that would be impossible on larger planets. The pillars of fire are a locally famous collection of stone spires sculpted by the forces of weathering and erosion.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

The planet had native life at the time prior to colonization. Imported lifeforms were genetically modified and tailored to adapt to the local flora an fauna with some unexpected results. Trial and error led to some artificial selection and extinction events.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Part of the Mnemosyne Principality, an arid low population colony, with relatively high technology and a good starport. A military governor has nominal control of the settlement around the downport. There are orbital facilities, a bit crude by imperial standards, with maintenance for military ships. A small military boatyard is located on the mainworld's outer moon.

World Starport[edit]

Mape has a Class B Starport, a good 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 most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Technology Level[edit]

Mape possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government[edit]

Mape has a Captive Government or Colony. The world is ruled by an external government, there is no self-rule. A colony or conquered area. The local government is an oligarchy appointed by, and answerable only to, the external government.

World Economy[edit]

There is a small custom cybernetic industry, and locals have embraced a social sub-class of cyborgs. There are a small number of prospecting seekers and scouts where natives are spliced into the mechanisms of their ships. These radical alterations are offered as elective surgery for natives with paralysis from nervous system damage. Travel suits and large armored slave robots serve in the security forces. Cargo servitor/stevedore robots are plentiful at the starport. Imported Zhodani computer and robotic processors and software enjoy high prices as high demand trade items. Mossip and Eterra also provide some higher technology computers which the locals use for crude AI. Annual robotics conferences are used to try to attract experts and scientists from across the sector to add functionality beyond what the listed technology level would suggest. Wounded veterans are turned into cyborgs as opposed to retired or healed with biological grafts and regrown organs.
