History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The system has been issued an Amber Zone travel advisory for some of the wilderness areas, which are still infested with biological hazards.
In the early 600s the Humbolts engaged in biowarfare against Andalia, which harbored an Atsah base at the time. The agents tainted the atmosphere and destroyed the limited agricultural land. The population today hunts the Maladig, an imported food beast for export to luxury markets.
Andalia's amber zone is due to the near total disappearance of oxygen from the world's atmosphere during winter and spring in the temperate and polar latitudes. Filter masks will not work in this atmosphere, only respirators during the high O2 season, and PLSS during the low season.
The world is less than a billion years old, and its only life are anaerobic microorganisms and primitive photosynthesizers. Most of the population works in deep water mining sites, mining metals or the surprisingly rich gemstone beds for export to Inar Subsector or Vincennes Subsectors. Emeralds and sapphires are the richest of the world's exports, and the mines that produce them are closely guarded by their owners.
Andalia's downport is located on Andalia's small moon, Iskanderia, as the world itself has no significant land surface for the construction of anything beyond simple landing pads.
