Eaealeh is a rich, nonindustrial 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.
  • This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
  • It has high-grade living conditions and life on this world is much admired by off-worlders.
  • It is a member of the Aslan Hierate Kyatulyare Vassal in the Keflin Subsector of Iphigenaia Sector.
  • This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
  • This world has an Aslan Clan Base, which may combine the features of an army base for ground forces, a scout base, or even a naval base for starships.

Eaealeh is a Meso World between 12,000km and 13,500km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.8G and 1.1G. The horizon will appear about 5.1km away. Vessels with 1G of thrust should check with local starport authorities before attempting to land using emergency power.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Eaealeh has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Chart Aslan Hierate Kyatulyare Vassal Basic.png

Aslan settlement began during the 1060s.

  • Prior to settlement, Eaealeh was a barren world.
  • Construction is ongoing in many areas.
  • The resources of the system are being exploited.

The system is relatively quiet. There is only limited activity.

  • Commercial traffic is infrequent: ships only occasionally visit the system.
  • Commo picks up regular signals and private chatter. Communications are in Trokh.
  • One or two commercial navigation beacons may be active.
  • A vessel or two may be operating among the other worlds and moons that make up the system.
  • Exploratory or survey vessels may be active in the system.

Note that social data, though frequently updated, may be out of date: additional groups may now inhabit the system and maintain their own culture, forms of government, and systems of law.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)[edit]

Eaealeh 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.

World Technology Level (T)[edit]

Eaealeh possesses a Technology Level of TL–5.

World Government (G)[edit]

Eaealeh is governed by a vassal Aslan Clan. The local clans owe fealty to a more powerful off-world clan, who in turn owes their fealty to another, more powerful but remote, clan. This requires lengthy consultation for making major policy changes.

World Military[edit]

Approximately 25,000 professional warriors, in service of the clan authorities.

World Law (L)[edit]

Eaealeh has a moderate law level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. All firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.

  • Labor: 5 (hundreds of thousands)

  • Efficiency: -5 (extremely poor)

Trade Data[edit]

World Demographics (P)[edit]

Eaealeh has a population of 4,000,000 Aslan

Urbanization[edit]

A few large urban centers are surrounded by smaller satellite communities.

  • Inhabited areas are dotted across the world.
  • Much of the surface of the world remains as wilderness.

All buildings are constructed in the distinctive curved style of the Aslan.

  • The oldest structures on the world are no more than 50 years old.

  • Acceptance: 4 (extremely aloof)
