Jump map from Travellermap.com

Cheeb is a barren water world with no overt population, government, or law level.

• It is covered with very deep oceans with less than 1% of its land above sea level.
• Any inhabitants of this world would need to live on the roughly 1% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
• This world could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Eiebl Subsector of Fulani Sector.

• It is a chilly tundra world, with a climate of low temperatures.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

Stellar Data

Cheeb is a trinary star system.

• The primary is an orange main sequence.
• The secondary is a red main sequence.
• The tertiary is a brown dwarf substellar object.

Cheeb has three stars in the star system.

System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x7 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x2 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

Cheeb orbits towards the outer edge of its star's habitable zone.

• It receives relatively low levels of stellar energy.

Mainworld Size (S)

Cheeb is a Big World between 18,400km and 20,000km diameter. The world has a high gravity between 1.9 and 2.0G. The horizon will appear about 6.3km away. Vessels with 1G of thrust should not land on this world. Vessels with 2G of thrust should check with local starport authorities before attempting to land using emergency power.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Cheeb has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard 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.

• The world experiences low temperatures.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Cheeb 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.

• Much of the ocean surface is covered by icebergs, pack ice, and ice sheets.

Satellites:

Cheeb retains a cratered vacuum moon.

• It orbits once every few weeks.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.
• Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
• Detailed survey data commands premium prices.

(Placeholder chart, predominantly watery world.)

Native Lifeforms

Abundant aquatic native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

Cheeb is a frontier, a wild and lonely place that rarely sees visitors. Many of the planets and moons within it have ever have had an intelligent being visit them.

• Information about the system is limited.
• The resources of the system are largely untapped.

The system is unpopulated.

• Commercial traffic is extremely rare: the system sees very few visiting ships.
• Commo only picks up natural background noise and static.
• There are no active navigation beacons.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date: previously undocumented groups may now inhabit the system and maintain their own culture, forms of government, and systems of law.

• Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (St)

Cheeb does not have a starport. The Class X Starport is an indication that no starport exists in the system. There are no facilities or services available, and no site marked for landing.

World Demographics (P)

Cheeb is unpopulated.

Urbanization

None.

World Technology Level (T)

Cheeb possesses a Tech Level of TL–0.

• The world has no technological base.

World Government (G)
