History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The central location of Aetskaekhoun in Aelluekh Subsector also makes it an important trade hub, as it is the only world that directly connects the coreward and rimward halves of the subsector for Jump-2 capable ships. The importance of its location has given it a turbulent history and it has gone through numerous governments of all types.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Aetskaekhoun 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.

  • Vargr starports reflect the variety of Vargr architecture, with many disparate styles of building, each having their own unique ornamentation and gaudy colour scheme, and all competing for the attention of the onlooker. Emblems for the major shipping lines and port facilities abound.

World Population (P)[edit]

Aetskaekhoun has a population of 1,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).

World Demographics[edit]

Vargr, population 95%

World Languages[edit]

  • Various dialects of Gvegh

Urbanization[edit]

Vargr cities are lively and chaotic, full of garish colours and loud noises. Streets are packed and buildings press together. Vehicle traffic is fast and chaotic; the accident rate is low only because of superior Vargr reflexes. Zoning codes are rare, and districts jumble together.

World Government (G)[edit]

Aetskaekhoun is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.

World Culture[edit]

Aetskaekhoun was famous for the foundation of the Zhosokh Urs and their prestigious academy for emissaries. Unfortunately, this renowned school began to decline once it was part of the Thoengling Empire, as fewer Vargr travelled here to train. Financial problems eventually forced the academy to close down but the Zhosokh Urs emissaries that remain are still in high demand.
