Mainworld Data

Mainworld Size (S)

Bangwe is a Meso World between 10,400km and 12,000km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.7G and 0.9G. The horizon will appear about 4.7km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Bangwe has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Bangwe has 95-100% of its surface covered by liquid water with only a few islands and archipelagos. Wilderness refueling is possible. Such worlds are Water Worlds or Ocean Worlds.

History & Background (Dossier)

Bangwe's entire population lives on a single small chain of islands near the downport. The starport itself is a highly informal affair -- a group of beacons ringing a shallow lagoon, with ships making a "soft" landing in the water. The locals subsist on fishing and handicrafts, and are quite content with their lot.

Imperial Landed Nobility

Bangwe, as a member world of the Third Imperium has a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility who acts as an Imperial representative to the world.

• It holds the estate of an Imperial knight.

World Starport

Bangwe has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the 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 only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

New Era

In antebellum times the world attracted sportsmen from across Deneb, and locals make additional income by hiring themselves out to visiting RQS crews as guides and outfitters. Handmade, wooden catamarans and outriggers are the most popular form of transport, and some of these are exported to worlds safeside for exorbitant prices.

Bangwe is one of three worlds chosen as wildside trade terminals, and negotiations are underway to expand the starport into a full facility for trade and colonization. The locals are reluctant to fully open up their world to contact, and are reportedly driving a hard bargain, in the form of higher recompense from the Regency government, before they will consent to any kind of widescale development.
