New Libdis is a high-population, industrial water world, which has 90% or more of its surface covered in an ocean of water and a billion or more sophonts in population size.

  • The inhabitants of this world live on the roughly 10% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
  • As an industrial world, this planet has well-developed manufacturing and processing industries. Manufactured goods are a major export item.
  • Its economy is rapidly growing and living conditions are expected to rapidly improve barring outside forces.
  • The world serves as the subsector capital with the significant extra trade and prestige associated with that role.
  • This is a "Puzzle" world designated as an Amber Zone. Caution is advised since the world has an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that are not well understood and might be a danger to a visitor.
  • It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Kimson's Stand Subsector of Dark Nebula Sector.

History & Background / Dossier[edit]

In -404, a Human state known as the Suleimani Confederation was conquered by the aggressive Aslan Htiokh clan. The Confederation had stood as a bulwark against the Aslan for nearly 600 years and its fall left independent Human populations along the trailing edge of the Hierate concentrated around fortress worlds -- including New Libdis.

New Libdis would eventually become an important member world of the Solomani Confederation.

World Starport (St)[edit]

New Libdis has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions.
