History & Background (Dossier)

Three of the five colony worlds have vacuum environments, with populations under domes and underground (Enrique, Ergo, and Abarre). The fourth world has an ellipsoid atmosphere, breathable only in the colder latitudes, and the fifth requires filter masks. Despite these harsh conditions, the colony worlds hold the bulk of the "empire's" population, while the pleasant homeworld is artificially restricted to the estates of ruling nobles and their servants.

Government & Politics (Leadership)

The powerful matriarchy of Rebin dates as far back as any historical records exist. Males constitute a servant class and do not marry into permanent families. Children are raised and educated by female governesses until age eight, when the boys go to men's barracks to be trained for their future duties. Science, art, and administration are entirely in the hands of women. Men are not literate beyond the most basic needs of laborers.

Technology & Trade (Economy)

  • Most of the Rebin worlds have notably high Law levels because of the necessity of controlling such a large subjugated part of the populace.
  • Male traders and visitors find the matriarchs difficult to deal with, so most firms send female representatives to do business.

Military & Intelligence (Force Projection)
