Atmosphere

The atmosphere of Number One is a toxic goop of insidious gases, with a high concentration of chlorine and cyanide compounds.

History & Background (Dossier)

Settled as an undersea mining colony and prison planet by the Sindalians, Number One should not have survived the fall of the empire. That it not only survived but flourished is testament both to the stubborn nature of Humaniti, and to the fact that it's hard to leave your home hellhole without jump technology.

Society

Number One is controlled by various religious groups currently waging a propaganda war against each other for control of the planet.

• The population lives in dome-settlements on the sea floor, and never emerge from beneath the waves. To live on Number One is to exist in a realm of tunnels, corridors, pumping stations and submarines.

Urbanization

• Dragonsdome is the oldest settlement on Number One; it grew up around the prison. Today, it is a trading post and mining colony with a population of half a million, ruled by a Warden. Dragonsdome controls the planet's starport, which stands atop a mountain that rises steeply out of the ocean five kilometers north of the dome. A submersible funicular runs down the mountainside into Dragonsdome.
• Dragon's Deep is an underwater chasm five hundred kilometers north-west of Dragonsdome. Back when this place was a working prison, cruel wardens used Dragon's Deep as the ultimate in solitary confinement. Prisoners would be placed into pressure-resistant bathyspheres and plunged into the darkest depths of the ocean, to hang from thin cables until they had atoned for their misdeeds – or until the Warden ordered they be killed.

World Starport

Number One 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. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

The planet's downport is located on a tall mountain, above the worst of the atmospheric poisons.
