Era: New Era
Marz is a rich world with a shirt-sleeve atmosphere and a balance of available surface water. The system supports a population in the 100's of millions, which makes it too urbanized to make an agricultural world. This world designated as an Amber Zone. Caution is advised since the world has an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that are not well understood and might be a danger to a visitor. It is a Human dominated Non-Aligned world in the Pretoria Subsector of Deneb Sector. This world contains a Scout Base, capable of handling Scout Service starships and personnel. This is the homeworld of the Marzian, a Minor Race. 20% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
Lurent planetoid ships may be found, trading, in the inner system or in the system’s Oort clouds, refuelling.
This world is located in the Marzian Loop, a cluster of worlds in the coreward side of the Pretoria Subsector.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The Class-A starport sees considerable activity, as Marz is the gateway for traffic between the Pretoria Subsector and the Aramis Trace in the Aramis Subsector. Marz is also a major trade center for the Anfharsgzo Subsector, part of the Vargr Extents.
Imperial Humans first settled Marz around 400, following the Vargr Campaigns. Vargr that had lived here either fled or accepted Imperial membership; there were plenty in both categories. The native Marzians have never shown any objection to the Human and Vargr presence.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Marz 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.
World Population (P)[edit]
Marz has a population of 1,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).
- High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
World Demographics[edit]
World Technology Level (T)[edit]
Marz possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
- Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
- Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
- FTL: Jump Drive-1.
World Government (G)[edit]
Marz is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.
World Law (L)[edit]
Marz has a moderate level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Personal concealable firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
New Era[edit]
Marz was formerly of the Domain of Deneb, and a high population world that traded heavily with the Vargr Extents. The world was severely damaged by raids from the Assemblage of 1116, and a good portion of its population had already evacuated to safeside well before the Collapse. The Regency held onto the world until 1141, when its inability to guarantee protection compelled it to grant independence to Marz and nearby Carthage (Deneb 0202).
Marz is still mostly human in population, but its economy and political system have shifted towards the Kforuzeng and its allies. The local dictator is a former high ranking officer in the Kforuz organization, and the corsairs operate openly in the system. Several Pack groups also are based in the system, and several enjoy the backing of the government and its sponsors. Marz is located uncomfortably close to the junction between the Regency, the Vargr Splinters, and the Wilds, and several "mercenary" naval units are provided by the Kforuz to defend the world against Vampire incursions, and to deter raids by rival corsair groups still operating in the Wilds.
Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]
Marz, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial knight.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial baronet.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial count.
