Beasen is a preindustrial water world.

  • Its surface is 90% or more covered in an ocean of water.
  • The inhabitants of this world live on the roughly 10% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
  • As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support 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 Abidal Subsector of Halcyon Sector.

System data

The primary is Trallis, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a distant companion, Gorph, a red subdwarf lying approximately 2100 AU distant. The inner system consists of (I, III, IV) three small rocky vacuum worlds – orbital position (II) is empty. (V) Beasen is nominated the mainworld and orbits within the habitable zone. The outer zone consists of (VI) a large exotic atmosphere world, (VII, VIII) two large gas giants, (IX) a small gas giant, and (X) a small icy outer world. Most of the worlds in the outer system retain families of satellites.

Gorph subsystem

The companion is Gorph, an ordinary red subwarf star, lying approximately 2100 AU from the primary. It retains a family of (I) a sparse icy planetoid Belt, (II) a small gas giant, and (III) a large exotic atmosphere world. Both of the worlds retain families of satellites.

  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
    • Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
    • FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.

World government

Beasen 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.
