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

  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often form intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.
  • This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Jerik Subsector of Halcyon Sector.

System Data

Marabar-Esil System

The primary is Marabar, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.04 Sols, a mass of 0.489 Sols, and a diameter of 764,000 km. (I-I) Esil, designated the mainworld, and (I-II) a very thin atmosphere radworld, have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. (II) an exotic atmosphere radworld forms the inner part of the outer system. Orbital positions (III) through (VII) are unavailable due to the presence of the companion star. (VIII-I) a dense icy planetoid belt, (VIII-II) a small gas giant, and (IX) a ringed large gas giant orbit the system's barycenter and form the outer part of the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

  • The star experiences periodic flare activity.

Onguth Subsystem

The companion is Onguth, an ordinary red main sequence star that orbits Marabar at a mean distance of 1.73 AU (orbital position (V), 258.8 million km). It has a luminosity of 0.0334 Sols, a mass of 0.4574 Sols, and a diameter of 711,000 km. (I-I) a very thin atmosphere radworld, and (I-II) a trace atmosphere radworld, have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. (II) a corrosive atmosphere bigworld forms the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

  • The star experiences periodic flare activity.
  • The two stars have similar masses and orbit a barycenter located at around 0.84 AU (orbital position (III), 125.7 million km). They have an orbital period around one another of 289 days 1 hour.
