'rikookut' is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • This is a cold world with an overall climate that is at the lower temperature range of human-congruous sophont endurance.
  • This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or above the standard for Charted Space.
  • It is a member of the Two Thousand Worlds in the Lerr'n Subsector of Numbis Sector.
  • This world-system has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

No information yet available.

World Starport (St)[edit]

'rikookut' has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Population (P)[edit]

'rikookut' has a population of 8,000,000 sophonts (millions).

  • This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

Linguistic Topography[edit]

World Technology Level (T)[edit]

'rikookut' possesses a Technology Level of TL–11 or TL-B in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government (G)[edit]

'rikookut' is governed by an Impersonal Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy dictates government policy and its execution. Government leadership is reduced to little more than figureheads and does not select the bureaucracy leadership or its members.

World Law Level[edit]

K'kree worlds do not use a fixed Law Level scale, other than to forbid weaponry to anyone of any race who is not of the K'kree Warrior/Bodyguard caste or an active member in the military of the Two Thousand Worlds (which makes them a Warrior caste temporarily).

  • By Imperial standards, this world is Law Level A.
  • Generally, K'kree justice is merciful to other K'kree. Misunderstandings and the rare criminal matters are judged by the Krurruna (herd "boss") or their representatives. Their decisions are final, and obedience is near-absolute. Towards non-K'kree, the authorities are far less charitable, as K'kree are highly chauvinistic and mistrustful of aliens.
