History and background

A small low-grade colony consisting of 3 Colony domes almost equally spaced around the equator of one of the largest satellites in the system. This world has little to recommend it.

The world is the birthplace of Lorna Beldshander, actress and singer, who's endeavors are today considered to constitute some of the best Holopics of the 1040s.

World Starport

Shaakhish 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.
