Avat is a nonindustrial vacuum world, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.

  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Alurza Subsector of Diaspora Sector in the Domain of Sol.

History-Era: Rebellion

The sleepy little world has become a major transit node for Diasporan commerce. In particular, it is the most common point for ships to cross over from the Alurzan Loop to the Libert Main (and vice versa). The increase in interstellar traffic has also brought a wave of off-world criminals. In response, Avat's government has become increasingly strict and totalitarian.
