History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Virtually all of Ehok-ta's 10,000 inhabitants are in the employ of Ne-ka-otabi, an entrepreneurial venture run by Syleans and Bwaps. Ne-ka-otabi used a large portion of its seed money to purchase a small gravitic city that was designed and built to their specifications by General Products, LIC. Ne-ka-otabi uses industrial robots from Shibashliim to mine the resources of the planet below.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Ehok-ta has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
