History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Northstar is one of the most interesting worlds within Beyond. Not only does it encircle a Type G2 star, but it is composed of technologically controlled environments. Thus, a traveller may find representative colonies of each of the many races which comprise the Comsentient Alliance, as well as many of the races seeking entrance to the Alliance. Northstar has long pressed the Alliance for recognition as a better-suited world for the Great Hall than Rabanitas/Zydar (Beyond 0122). However, its position at the trailing edge of the subsector, parenthetically nearer the Imperium, counts heavily against such a ruling in the foreseeable future.
Northstar is the subsector capital for the Comsentient Alliance.
World Starport[edit]
Ringworld of Northstar has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the 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 only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
