System data

The primary is Utreli, a huge orange giant star. It has a luminosity of 3.042 Sols, a mass of 4.4 Sols and a diameter of 36.7 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a large hot gas giant orbiting very close to the surface of the star and (IV, V) two small rocky vacuum worlds – orbital positions (II) and (III) are empty. (VI) Harmal orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (VII) a rocky thin atmosphere world, (VIII) an exotic atmosphere world, (IX) a small rocky vacuum world and (X) a large icy world form the outer system. All of the outer worlds retain satellites.

(VI) Harmal

(VI) Harmal is designated the mainworld. It orbits primary at a mean distance of 5.1 AU (763 million km), it has an orbital period of 5 years 179 days and a rotation period of 12 days 8 hours. The axial tilt is 10 degrees. Harmal has a diameter of 5613 km, a density of 4.28 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.34 G. Its atmosphere is rated as Thin, with a mean surface pressure of 0.45 bar and a composition of 82% nitrogen, 17% oxygen, and 1% argon, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. Approximately 7% of the surface is covered in scattered lakes of liquid water: average tidal ranges are 0.1m. Mean surface temperature: 39°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and powerful weather systems, driven by the star, sweep across the globe. The climate is seasonal and weather patterns follow regular cycles during the long local year.

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 99 million km², Land surface area: 92 million km², Water surface area: 7 million km².

Native lifeforms

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Harmal 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.

World technology level

Harmal possesses a Technology Level of TL–0.

  • These worlds often contain a Proto-Sophont species beginning to establish a nascent civilization and society.
  • This world is in its Alpha Period and has not yet been interfered with by a higher technology civilization.
  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Bodily communicative apparati, courier-runners, and smoke signals.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Bodily muscle.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Bodily locomotion, riding beasts, and litters or sedan chairs.
    • Water: Swimming, rafts, and canoes.
    • Air: Typically not available unless a bodily ability.

World government

Harmal has no central government for the world, an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.
