Era: New Era

Ruwenzori has a population between 10,000 and 10 million sophonts, lacking the industrial base to be completely self-supporting. This 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 Regency of Deneb in the Namidshur Subsector of Deneb Sector. 40% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

Description (Planetology)[edit]

The ecosphere is primitive, and is dominated by large rainforests of spore-producing trees and terrestrial invertebrates. Several of these spores are toxic to humans, which accounts for the Amber Zone listing.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

This previously unclaimed world was bought out by SpinDev/Ventureprise in 1155. Spindev's operations on the world are shrouded in semi-secrecy, and have aroused the irritation of RQS several times. The company had been notoriously difficult in explaining irregular shipping patterns during the 1160s and 70s, and nearly lost its charter. The implied smuggling has ended, but the company's operations are still dogged by rumor and controversy.
