Description (Astrography & Planetology)

With just enough mass for a stable magnetosphere, some gravity, and some protection from the fierce radiation of solar winds made this planet look attractive to early colonists drawn from asteroid systems. The feeble atmosphere meant that crops could be raised in large green houses. Large orbital mirrors gathered enough sun light to make this practical. Many belter tourists come here to give birth and rest and recuperate after injury in systems without larger planetary bodies.

History & Background (Dossier)

Non-canon: A military governor collects taxes and administers the occupation. The governor is protected by a dedicated security force. This force is low tech by imperial standards but is effective against comparable local forces. The governor has hired the unit out as a Mercenary force against the Katanga Empire. They also add security for the scout base located near the shipyards. The governor has an imported cyborg bodyguard code named Baby Doll, CFC882. She carries two 4mm gauss pistols, w/ shoulder holsters, 10 magazines (15), a hull metal samurai katana, and a pair of custom gravity assist boots add considerable leaping ability.

World Starport

Fagad has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
