History and background

Dupligi was a major colony during the Rule of Man but was wiped out in -677 due to a mutated viral infection. The planet remained underpopulated until 322 when the IISS decided to establish an underwater Scout base there to aid in the training of underwater contact skills.

The only permanent residents of Dupligi are the Dolphins (Tursiops Galactus) brought to the planet in 905 to act as underwater specialists but who decided to stay on after their contract had finished, to colonise the world oceans.

Today several pods swim the deep blue, and a small school of speaker-oracles has been established though as yet only a few recordings of their songs have made their way onto the Imperial market.

Languages

  • Anglic
  • Delphinic Trinary
    • This language, also known as Delphinese, involves various clicks, rasps, chirps, creaks, hoots and whistles. Due to the spread of Dolphins across Charted Space, it has evolved into a multitude of dialects. It can take a Dolphin some time to learn a new dialect; errors are often seen by both parties as humorous.
    • For communication with humans and other races, most Dolphins speak ordinary, if flowery, Anglic.
