Wolf is a rich, pre-agricultural world with a moderate population over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in size.
- The world's agricultural industry is growing and some economists forecast an explosion in this world's agribusiness in the near future as new agro-technology and a more capable labor force are imported.
- This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
- This world has high-grade living conditions with a good climate and a non-harmful environment. As such, this world is much sought after with large queues for immigration here.
- This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or over technology standards for Charted Space.
- It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Paradise Subsector of Halcyon Sector.
- This world-system hosts a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- This world lies on the Barabek Loop Star Lane.
- It lies on the Wolfs Tail Star Lane.
- It lies on the Athune Spur Star Lane.

System Data[edit]
Kurghan-Wolf System[edit]
The primary is Kurghan, an ordinary orange main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.352 Sols, a mass of 0.774 Sols, and a diameter of 1.168 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, and (II) a very thin atmosphere radworld. (III) Wolf orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IV) a thin atmosphere hospitable world, (V) a dense rocky planetoid belt, (VI) a large gas giant, (VII) a small gas giant, (VIII) a small ice giant, (IX) a vacuum iceworld, and (X) an exotic atmosphere bigworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Mainworld Data[edit]
(III) Wolf[edit]
(III) Wolf is designated the mainworld. It orbits Kurghan at a mean distance of 0.66 AU (98.7 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 222 days 15 hours and a rotation period of 17.5 hours. The axial tilt is 15 degrees. Wolf has a diameter of 8,655 km, a density of 5.72 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.71 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, with a mean surface pressure of 0.88 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen, 22% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. Approximately 43% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.4m. Mean surface temperature: 22°C. The atmosphere is active and strong weather systems driven by the star and the seas sweep across the globe. The climate is seasonal.
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. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.
Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]
This world has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.
Satellite[edit]
Wolf retains a single natural satellite, a cratered vacuum worldlet named Jackal:
Mainworld geography and topography[edit]
Total surface area: 235 million km², Land surface area: 134 million km², Water surface area: 101 million km².
Native lifeforms[edit]
Wolf has extensive native life. Their metabolic processes maintain a cycle of atmospheric renewal.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Wolf 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.
- Peace footing (government modifier x0.95). Port Capacity: 760,000 dTons

World Law Level (L)[edit]
This world has a moderate law level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. All firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
World Technology Level (TL)[edit]
Wolf possesses a Technology Level of TL–12 or TL-C in Hexadecimal Notation.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land, Water & Air: Personal G-Tubes and advanced gravcraft.
- Space: Advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
- FTL: Jump Drive-3.
- FTL Notes: The limitations on DeVoss Drives – the so called Jump-2 Barrier – restricts jump drive performance to Jump-1 or jump-2 only.
World Military[edit]
Wolf Joint Military Command, is responsible for system defense operations.
