History & Background (Dossier)

World Starport

Erdsanal 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

Erdsanal has a population of 7,000,000 sophonts (millions).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.
• The population consists entirely of Eslyat.

World Demographics

The Eslyat are split between three subraces:

• Chutin: Sub-race of red-scaled Eslyat. In modern culture, a caste of police, warriors, sports performers and explorers.
• Magsin: Sub-race of green-scaled Eslyat. A working class in modern Eslyat society.
• Selyin: Sub-race of blue-scaled Eslyat, today an upper class of nobility, scholars and merchants.

World Languages

• Vrynsyss

Urbanization

Eslyat prefer artificial habitats customised to their preferred environmental conditions, in terms of temperature and salinity.

World Technology Level (T)

Erdsanal possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
  • Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
  • Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-1.

World Government (G)

Erdsanal is governed by a Non-charismatic Dictatorship. This is a continuation of the charismatic dictatorship, where the original leadership has died or retired and been replaced by allies or protégés. The justifications for the original change in government remain as well as the assertion of rights to rule.

World Military

• The Eslyat military consists of personal forces of the ruling family and feudal levies from subservient houses.
• They use elite formations of Eslyat Commandoes to enforce government policies.

World Law (L)

Erdsanal has an extreme law level which covers every area of interaction. Laws are complex, detailed, and difficult to understand. Every interaction with the government requires an Advocate. Law enforcement is omnipresent and strict. Legal proceeding can take months to years to resolve and may involve dozens of people. A world with this law level may be an Amber Zone or a Red Zone. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (with no exception for private residences; visiting starships are only protected so long as they stay within designated starports and approach corridors). Civilian movement is rigidly controlled. Travel documents are frequently checked. There is no legal concept of privacy (save for those who can claim necessity for official government business). The police are free to inspect anyone and anything at any time.

World Culture

The Sesshayr religion is followed on this world.
