Falin is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.
- As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
- It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
- It is a member of the Protectorate of Leset in the Demon's Eye Subsector of Far Home Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.
Astrography and Planetology
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- The Falin system is a part of the Pel Avena Cluster.

System Data
Mardov-Falin System
The primary is Mardov, an ordinary orange main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.42 Sols, a mass of 0.825 Sols, and a diameter of 1.263 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, (II-I) a vacuum inner world, and (II-II) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world. (III) Falin orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IV) a very thin atmosphere hospitable world, (V) a very thin atmosphere radworld, (VI) a dense rocky planetoid belt, (VII) a ringed large gas giant, (VIII) a small gas giant, and (IX) a vacuum worldlet form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Mainworld Data
(III) Falin
(III) Falin is designated the mainworld. It orbits Mardov at a mean distance of 0.71 AU (106.3 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 240 days 14 hours and a retrograde rotation period of 33.5 hours. The axial tilt is 172 degrees. Falin has a diameter of 7,756 km, a density of 4.95 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.55 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Thin, with a mean surface pressure of 0.62 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen (N2), 22% oxygen (O2), and 1% argon (Ar), water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. Approximately 41% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.3m. Mean surface temperature: 12°C. The climate is rated as Temperate-Cool and experiences minor seasonal changes during the local year. The atmosphere is active and moderate weather systems driven by the star and the seas work across the globe.
Satellite
Falin retains a single natural satellite, a trace atmosphere worldlet named Manticor:
- (IIIa) Manticor (UWP Y210000-0, orbiting at 15 Diameters/115,000 km)
Mainworld Geography and Topography
Total surface area: 189 million km², Land surface area: 112 million km², Water surface area: 77 million km².
Native Lifeforms
Mardov-Falin System
Falin, the mainworld, has extensive native life, consisting of microscopic organisms, stromatolite-parallels and primitive flora that can be found in almost every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.
No other world in the system is known to have native life.
History & Background (Dossier)
No information yet available.
World starport
Falin has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World technology level
Falin possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone and telegraphs, widespread printing.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Trains and early automobiles.
- Water: Clippers and steam ships.
- Air: Dirigibles, balloons, very basic rockets.
World government
Falin is governed by an Impersonal Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy dictates government policy and its execution. Government leadership is reduced to little more than figureheads and does not select the bureaucracy leadership or its members.
