Native Intelligent Life (NIL)[edit]

Giikusu is the homeworld of the Kirissukyoya.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The Kirissukyoya were nearly destroyed in a long-ago war, but were saved by the intervention of Droyne from Zeen, a world which had previously traded with Giikusu. With Droyne help, the Kirissukyoya slowly but steadily rebuilt their civilization and population, and in time resumed their place as a starfaring nation.

In the time period leading up to the Vargr Campaigns, Giikusu was a victim of Vargr corsairs and raiding. With the Third Imperium preparing to move against local Vargr, Giikusu found support for its own struggle. By 180, Giikusu was building jump-capable starships and pushing the Vargr coreward. The planet soon took its place as an Imperial member world.

World Starport[edit]

Giikusu has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few 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 a downport.
