Khiinra Ash is a low-population world with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts in size.

• This world has yet to take off economically or otherwise and the population remains low for reasons largely unknown.
• The world serves as the subsector capital with the significant extra trade and prestige associated with that role.
• It is a member of the Sylean Worlds, a cultural region and full member state of the Third Imperium in the Kaskii Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.

• The population is composed of Syleans and native (non-humanoid) Bhu'oovaakaylaa.
• Less than 10% of the population is composed of other human and non-human sophonts.
• This world was colonized by and is controlled from Mikhag Kuu (world).

Mainworld Conditions

Because of its high gravity, Khiinra Ash has no large mountain ranges, but its porous, cracked land masses have enormous canyon systems. Here is where complex life is found, as the atmosphere is denser.

History & Background (Dossier)

Starport

Khiinra Ash Highport is a serviceable and friendly facility, though its technology is outdated. The staff see themselves as ambassadors to the Bhu’oovaakaylaa civilisation and are helpful to offworlders.

Population

About 12 million native Bhu'oovaakaylaa live here, though exact numbers are unknown. The common listed population figures for the world list only the humans.
