Mainworld Data

Mainworld Size (S)

Adni is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Adni has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. While the thin atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Adni has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

History & Background (Dossier)

Adni is a member of the Rhamsteppe-Mongrebi Main. It is a part of (and the namesake of) the Adni Run region of the Main.

It is a part of the Darmine Cultural Region, created within rimward Zarushagar Sector by order of Emperor Artemsus in the years immediately following the Ilelish Pacification Campaign.

With 10 billion inhabitants and a distinct blending of cultures and influences from a number of races, Adni is a highly important world in rimward Zarushagar Sector.

Darmine are the most populous species on the world, but Adni is also notable for more than a billion Bwap, making it a center of record-keeping and orderly government.

World Starport (Sp)

Adni 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)

Adni has a population of 10,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).

• High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
• About 70% of the population (roughly 7 billion individuals) is composed of Darmine.
• Roughly 20% of the population (nearly 2 billion individuals) is made up of baseline humans and other sophonts.
• Around 10% of the population (approximately 1 billion individuals) consists of Bwaps.

World Government (G)

Adni 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 (L)

Adni has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All blade weapons and firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
