History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Paro is owned and operated by Universal Paro Systems, Ltd., an Imperially-chartered corporation consisting of literally every inhabitant on the planet.

There is a small starport staff. Beside corporate business the harsh environment means that there are few tourists and little in the way of cargo. A single security battalion is posted here to protect company assets.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]

Paro, as a member world of the Third Imperium has a member of the Imperial Nobility overseeing the world.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Paro 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.
