History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
This is a paraterraformed Selenite world, and with 80 billion inhabitants, Duncan is the most highly populated world in the subsector.
Selenites are a Variant Human Race engineered to live in low gravity environments. Most Selenites are deeply uncomfortable outside an environment that can be neatly controlled. Being outdoors on a 'wild' planet is unsettling to them, and sudden rain or even a strong gust of wind might provoke panicked demands for reassurance.
Solomani Security keeps a close eye on things to ensure the security of the Solomani State and the well-being of its loyal citizens. Almost anyone could be a SolSec informant, passing on all sorts of useful information: some gain a reward or benefit for their actions, others are coerced, but many see it as an act of duty to help protect the the State and its interests.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Duncan 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.
- Self-sufficient and insular like most Selenite worlds, Duncan supports only rudimentary port facilities.
World Population (P)[edit]
Duncan has a population of 80,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).
- High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
