Ahoahea (World) Synopsis

Ahoahea is a poor, nonindustrial desert hellworld with a population struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often form intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
  • This world has no free-standing water.
  • 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 Aslan sophonts located in the Iyhaseakh Subsector of Riftspan Reaches Sector.

Description

The human population here, as on Oyoiy, has been assimilated into Aslan society.

  • In fact, these humans are considered members of the Iyoihoikyar and Ukhaliha clans.
  • The resultant hybrid society formed by the two races has been a stellar example of race relations.

History & Background (Dossier)

Ahoahea saw more traffic from Verge sector than from Riftspan Reaches worlds. Word of Virus came from Sharakhaz (Verge 0418), a friendly Imperial world trailing. This warning enabled the Ahoaheans to prepare with their cousins on Oyoiy (Riftspan Reaches 3121) for an attack. Though there have only been a handful of attempts by Vampire Fleets, casualties have been high. Ships capable of crossing the 4 parsec gulf tend to be more advanced than the defending ships.

The gulf which protects Ahoahea from regular Vampire attacks has also prevented any friendly visits as well. As such, it hasn't had any contact with any worlds besides Oyoiy since the Collapse began.
