Lesser Dismal is a nonindustrial fluid world.

  • A fluid world has an oceanic geography of a liquid other than water such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquids.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Darkling Regions Subsector of Beyond Sector.
  • Lesser Dismal has an atmosphere of carbon dioxide (CO2) [2], and its seas likely contain a significant percentage of dissolved CO2.
