Mainworld Topography and Geography
The world is verdant, covered in swamps, forests and jungles; it is known for its torrential rainfalls.
Native Lifeforms
Extensive native life. Breathing the atmosphere without filters is dangerous due to the concentration of plant and fungal spores carried in the air. Animal life not native to the world tends to die within a couple of days, their lungs congested with plant growths.
Fauna tends to be reptilian, ranging from finger-sized lizards up to herbivores the size of a grav tank. Carnivorous plants are a common threat to animals on Trifuge.
Native Sophont: Dphone
The Dphone are a minor race evolving on Trifuge. Current studies show that they have a simple intellect similar to (non-uplift) Terran chimpanzees.
History & Background (Dossier)
Trifuge was first colonized as a company planet with the heads of corporations providing housing and services for their employees. It is still run by industrial executives and their scientific advisers.
World Starport (Sp)
Trifuge has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
