Ojalu is an agricultural world with the potential to become an industrial power.
- 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.
- As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import many manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
- It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Annistu Subsector of Far Home Sector.
- Ojalu is a Voluntarily Regressive World
Astrography and Planetology[edit]
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- This world lies on the Wolfs Tail Star Lane.

System Data[edit]
Lwase-Ojalu System[edit]
The primary is Lwase, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 4.42 Sols, a mass of 1.38 Sols, and a diameter of 2.031 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, (III) a trace atmosphere worldlet, and (IV) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world – orbital position (II) is empty. (V) Ojalu orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (VI) a standard atmosphere hospitable world and (VII) an exotic atmosphere bigworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Mainworld Data[edit]
(V) Ojalu[edit]
(V) Ojalu is designated the mainworld. It orbits Lwase at a mean distance of 2.68 AU (401 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 3 years 268 days and a rotation period of 23 hours. The axial tilt is 16 degrees. Ojalu has a diameter of 12,782 km, a density of 5.48 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 1.0 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 1.03 bar and a composition of 72% nitrogen (N2), 27% oxygen (O2), and 1% argon (Ar), water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), neon (ne) and other trace gases. The taint is caused by the high percentage of atmospheric oxygen. Approximately 44% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 24°C. The climate is rated as Temperate-Warm and experiences moderate seasonal changes during the local year. The atmosphere is dynamic and strong weather systems driven by the star and the oceans sweep across the globe.
Satellite[edit]
Ojalu retains a single natural satellite, a thin atmosphere hospitable world named Mukuru:
- (Va) Mukuru (UWP Y454000-0, orbiting at 30 Diameters/385,000 km)
Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]
Total surface area: 513 million km², Land surface area: 287 million km², Water surface area: 226 million km².
Native Lifeforms[edit]
Lwase-Ojalu System[edit]
Ojalu, the mainworld, has extensive, abundant native life, with complex organisms inhabiting every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.
The cold hospitable world lying in orbital position (VI) (within the H+ region of the outer system) has extensive native life, consisting of microscopic organisms, stromatolite-parallels and primitive flora that can be found in almost every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.
No other world in the system is known to have native life.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
No information yet available.
World starport[edit]
Ojalu has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World technology level[edit]
Ojalu possesses a Technology Level of TL–3.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Printing press, the mechanical telegraph, and the first audio recordings.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Coal or other simple hydrocarbon fuels and early steam engines.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Bicycles and early steam coaches with advanced roadways.
- Water: Advanced sailing and early steam engine ships.
- Air: The earliest hot air balloons.
World government[edit]
Ojalu has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.
