Era: New Era
Enaaka is a moderate population world, too many sophonts to be an agricultural world but not enough to be an industrial world. This world contains an archaeological site with artifacts suspected to be from the now-vanished Ancients. It is a member of Regency of Deneb in the Pretoria Subsector of Deneb Sector. This world is an Interface world, with a quarantine inspection facility for all ships. 10% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
This world is located in the Marzian Loop, a cluster of worlds in the coreward reach of the Pretoria Subsector.
System Data[edit]
The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:
- The mainworld.
- x5 secondary rocky worlds (Ary, Yonis, Pracphi, Conaage, Truder)
- x2 planetoid belts.
- x2 gas giants (Oni Tomm and Deeshun)
Mainworld Data[edit]
This hot, humid world is perpetually overcast and has an ecosystem completely dominated by fungus, whose varieties number hundreds of times more than on most other worlds.
With scant axial tilt or orbital eccentricity, there are no seasons on Enaaka. Temperature and climate vary by altitude and latitude, but not from one part of the year to the next. Electrical storms are common. Temperatures at the poles hover around freezing, but the continual circulation of moist, warm air from the lower latitudes guarantees that snowfalls, while common, don't accumulate. At the equator temperatures soar, and these regions can be entered by Humans only if they're wearing special protective gear. Many of the equatorial areas -- known as hotlands by the locals -- remain unexplored except from orbit.
Mainworld Atmosphere[edit]
Enaaka has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as 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 Geography & Topography[edit]
The largest city and principal cultural and trade centre on Enaaka is Aton, located in the A'kell Valley of central Valpasin, a few kilometers from the Emerald Gulf and the warm waters of the Vasting Ocean.

Native Lifeforms[edit]
Enaaka is completely dominated by fungus, whose varieties number hundreds of times more than on most other worlds. The ecosystem includes tall, tree-like mushrooms.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Enaakan fungi represent both the greatest danger of Enaaka and its greatest potential. Risking many fungus-related conditions and diseases, Human enterprise on Enaaka is primarily concerned with the harvest and processing of species valued for their pharmacological or gourmet commercial worth.
Unknown to modern settlers, the so-called Fuzzy -- a creature or being akin to a yeti or sasquatch -- is in fact a population of Vilani-descended Humans afflicted with a fungal infection.
Imperial Landed Nobility[edit]
Enaaka, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial knight.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial baron.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial marquis.
World Starport[edit]
Enaaka 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.
World Population (P)[edit]
Enaaka has a population of 90,000,000 sophonts (tens of millions).
World Demographics[edit]
The "Fuzzies" are not included in the census.
World Language/s[edit]

World Technology Level[edit]

- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone, radio, and television.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fission power generation, advanced water and wind generation of electricity.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Improved automobiles, early ATV's, and dedicated AFV's.
- Water: Amphibious vehicles, improved submersibles, and early SCUBA gear.
- Air: Early jet aircraft and rotorcraft VTOL's.
- Space: Early unmanned rocket delivery systems and early manned orbital rockets.
World Government[edit]
Enaaka is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.

Mistrustful of outsiders, disdainful of those who use elaborate protective devices or appear afraid of the Enaakan environment, the friendship and loyalty of Enaakans, once earned, are unquestionable.
