Myrhan is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Genesti Subsector of Far Home Sector.

System data

The primary is Wantan, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.334 Sols, a mass of 0.457 Sols and a diameter of 711,000 km. (I) Myrhan orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (II) an exotic atmosphere world forms the outer zone. Neither world retains satellites.

The companion is Kombu, a red subdwarf star which orbits Wantan at a mean separation of 3.1 AU, with an orbital period of 8 years 27 days. It has a luminosity of 0.002 Sols, a mass of 0.104 Sols and a diameter of 145,000 km. (I) a dense rocky planetoid belt forms the outer system.

Mainworld data

No information yet available. (VII) Genesti[edit] (I) Myrhan is designated the mainworld. It orbits Wantan at a mean distance of 0.18 AU (26.9 million km), within the systems habitable zone. It has an orbital period of X days XX hours and is tidally locked to the primary. The axial tilt is 4 degrees. Myrhan has a diameter of 8,633 km, a density of 5.98 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.79 G. Tidal stresses cause geological activity and seismic events are common. Its atmosphere is rated as Very Thin, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 0.25 bar and a composition of 83% nitrogen, 11% oxygen, 5% carbon dioxide, and 1% argon, carbon monoxide, neon and other trace gases. The taint is caused by a combination of a low percentage of atmospheric oxygen and gases of volcanic origin (primarily carbon dioxide). Approximately 24% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges are around 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 12°C. The atmosphere is slow and local weather systems, driven by the star and the seas, crawl across the globe. The climate is static.

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 234 million km², Land surface area: 178 million km², Water surface area: 56 million km².

Native lifeforms

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Myrhan 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

Myrhan possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
    • Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
    • Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
    • Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

World government

Myrhan is governed by Self-Perpetuating Oligarchy. A single family or small group provides the leadership and important positions in the government. These positions are inherited by member of the group or their family members. The organization may be monarchy, with titles passed to family members. Or a plutocracy where inheritance of the family fortune includes government position. Or the organization may be more typical organization with positions of power inherited.
