Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Destrier is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Destrier has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. While a Dense Atmosphere requires no 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.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Destrier has 55-65% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has significant large liquid bodies. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

In 1106, a Zhodani scout cruiser, the Zephone, was found dead in orbit around the moon of Destrier. After being boarded, it was found that the crew had been slaughtered to a man by an as yet unidentified group of insectoid creatures.

It is possible these beings -- the Jannix -- were establishing agricultural outposts on Destrier.
