Awaweaw is a Meso World between 12,000km and 13,500km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.8G and 1.1G. The horizon will appear about 5.1km away. Vessels with 1G of thrust should check with local starport authorities before attempting to land using emergency power.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Awaweaw has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. The Thin Atmosphere does not require survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Awaweaw has 45-55% of its surface covered by liquid water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Mainworld Topography and Geography

Native Life

Awaweaw has a lush biosphere, dominated by titanic saurians, floating gasbag-like 'sky jellyfish', and dangerous Sky Rays who have a wingspan of more than twenty meters and glide on thermals.

• Haums are great predatory lizards that threaten Yont and Aslan alike.

Native Sophont: Yont

Awaweaw has a native sophont race, the Yont.

• The Yont tribes that have encountered the Aslan so far believe the aliens to be gods, though in some cases this assumption is starting to be questioned.

History & Background (Dossier)

Awaweaw is an Aslan Hierate garden world located in the Silraaihe Subsector of the Trojan Reach.

• The world was recently colonized by Clan Ahroay'if and is ruled by Prince Wauiatyakhiyw.

World Starport (Sp)

Awaweaw has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

World Population (P)

Awaweaw has a population of 100,000,000 sophonts (hundreds of millions).

• The population consists mostly of Yont, with a minority of Aslan.

World Technology Level (T)

Awaweaw possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
  • Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
  • Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
  • Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

This refers to the technology used by the Aslan settlers; the native Yont are at a lower Tech Level.

World Government (G)

Awaweaw 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 Law (L)

Awaweaw 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 objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (outside private residences or visiting starships).
