History & Background (Dossier)

The Tukera family maintains a villa on the island of Lurka as well as dockside and cargo rights for regular route cargo and liner visits to Roup. Roup's citizens practice aquaculture on a planetary scale, with whole oceans sectioned off using bubblenets to maximize productivity.

Real food (as opposed to the local concentrates made from fish) is highly prized by the population.
