Viller is an agricultural world with the potential to become an industrial power.
- As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
- As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import many manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- It is a member of the Protectorate of Leset in the Nisor Subsector of Far Home Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.
Astrography and Planetology[edit]
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- It is a member of the Ritos Cluster.

System Data[edit]
Garada-Viller System[edit]
The primary is Garada, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 7.18 Sols, a mass of 1.62 Sols, and a diameter of 2.282 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, (III) a trace atmosphere inner world, (IV) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, and (V) a thin atmosphere hospitable world – orbital position (II) is empty. (VI-I) Viller, designated the mainworld, and (VI-II) a sparse stony planetoid belt have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. (VII-I) a ringed large gas giant, and (VII-II) a large gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Semeto Subsystem[edit]
The companion is Semeto, a dim red subdwarf star that orbits Garada at a mean distance of 322 AU (orbital position (XIII), 48.2 billion km) and has an orbital period of 4,540 years. It has a luminosity of 0.00152 Sols, a mass of 0.093 Sols, and a diameter of 127,000 km. (I) a trace atmosphere radworld, (II) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, (III) a sparse icy planetoid belt, and (IV) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Mainworld Data[edit]
(VI-I) Viller[edit]
(VI-I) Viller is designated the mainworld. It orbits Garada at a mean distance of 2.32 AU (347.1 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 2 years 284 days and a rotation period of 35 hours. The axial tilt is 14 degrees. Viller has a diameter of 11,504 km, a density of 3.73 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.61 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Dense, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 1.69 bar and a composition of 75% nitrogen (N2), 22% oxygen (O2), 2% argon (Ar), 1% xenon (Xe), and 1% water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The taint is caused by the high percentage of inert gases, principally argon and xenon. Approximately 64% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.4m. Mean surface temperature: 42°C. The climate is rated as Hot and experiences minor seasonal changes during the local year. The atmosphere is very active and powerful weather systems driven by the star and the oceans surge across the globe.
Satellites[edit]
Viller retains two natural satellites, a cratered vacuum worldlet named Rylan and a thin atmosphere hospitable world named Kala:
- (VI-Ia) Rylan (UWP H200000-0, orbiting at 12 Diameters/140,000 km)
- (VI-Ib) Kala (UWP G443000-0, orbiting at 60 Diameters/690,000 km)
Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]
Total surface area: 416 million km², Water surface area: 266 million km², Land surface area: 150 million km².
Native Lifeforms[edit]
Garada-Viller System[edit]
The hot marginally hospitable world lying in orbital position (V) (within the H– region of the inner system) has extensive native life, consisting of minute multicellular organisms that can be found in most ecological niches. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.
Viller, the mainworld, has extensive, abundant native life, with complex organisms inhabiting every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal. Fauna follows a wide variety of body patterns but the prevalent form is Asymetrical N-TBS-AL-LL-N, with an exoskeleton, ichor fluids and a leathery exterior. Most native organisms are indigestible by humans and many are toxic.
- Kala, Viller's temperate hospitable outer moon has extensive native life, consisting of microscopic organisms, stromatolite-parallels and primitive flora that can be found in almost every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.
No other world in the system is known to have native life.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Viller is a member of the Protectorate of Leset.
World starport[edit]
Viller 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.
World technology level[edit]
Viller possesses a Technology Level of TL–6.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone, radio, and television.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fission power generation, advanced water and wind generation of electricity.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Improved automobiles, early ATV's, and dedicated AFV's.
- Water: Amphibious vehicles, improved submersibles, and early SCUBA gear.
- Air: Early jet aircraft and rotorcraft VTOL's.
- Space: Early unmanned rocket delivery systems and early manned orbital rockets.
World government[edit]
Viller is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.
