Dorotea is a pre-agricultural, nonindustrial garden world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a garden world with a near-ideal, utopian environment conducive to most forms of sophontic life.
  • It is a pre-agricultural world with an environment suitable for large scale agricultural and livestock industries that have not yet been widely developed.
  • Its economy and population are growing and living conditions are expected to gradually rise barring outside forces.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Reach Subsector of Crucis Margin Sector.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

A force of Old Worlder "Reaction Cruisers" (actually vessels comparable in size to large destroyers) maintain standing deployments and patrols here, though the system is beyond the Old Worlds' borders.

World Starport[edit]

Dorotea has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
