Erelefo is a pre-agricultural, moderate population garden world with over a hundred million, but not yet a billion sophonts.
- Garden worlds are known for their near-ideal utopian environments conducive to most sophonts, plants, animals, and other forms of life.
- It is a pre-agricultural world with an environment suitable for large scale agricultural and livestock industries that have not yet been widely developed.
- Its economy and population are growing and living conditions are expected to gradually rise barring outside forces.
- This world is part of the Aslan Hierate, controlled by the Tlaukhu Bloc 1, composed of the Khaukheairl, Estoieie', and Toaseilwi clans, in the Yohkui Subsector of Dark Nebula Sector.
- This world has an Aslan Tlaukhu Base, which may combine the features of an army base for ground forces, a scout base, or even a naval base for starships.

Stellar Data[edit]
Mainworld Data[edit]
Native Lifeforms[edit]
There is no native life, and the intense ultraviolet radiation bombarding Erelefo initially made transplanting any plant species extremely difficult.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Human emigres from Magyar Sector originally settled the mainworld around -1500, naming it Duduki. The world changed hands several times during the Aslan Border Wars, before finally becoming a holding of the Khaukheairl clan in -300. They have long used Erelefo as a resort world for high-ranking clan families and foreign dignitaries, though after 1000 the world has become increasingly militarised as the Solomani press spinward.
World Starport[edit]
Erelefo 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]
Erelefo has a population of 400,000,000 sophonts (hundreds of millions).
World Languages[edit]
- Trokh: The universal language of the modern Aslan monoculture.
- Aslan Languages: Note that some Aslan clans retain obscure or archaic languages for personal use in addition to Trokh.
Urbanization[edit]
Aslan architecture tends to the organic and the rounded. They favour artistry over efficiency in the design of their buildings -- every Aslan structure is different. Even in mass-produced housing, residents will strive to make their territory uniquely theirs.
- Since Aslan descend from predators and enjoy open terrain, their buildings often feature both open rooms of great size and a number of concealed rooms, balconies, hidden passageways and hideaways.

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

- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.

World Government (G)[edit]
Erelefo is governed by Self-Perpetuating Oligarchy. A single family or small group provides the leadership and important positions within the government. These positions are inherited by members of the group or by their relatives. The organization may be a monarchy, with titles passed to family members, or a plutocracy where inheritance of the family fortune includes government position. Alternatively, the organization may be a more typical government apparatus, only with positions of power inherited.
World Law (L)[edit]
Erelefo has a moderate 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 except shotguns, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
Criminal acts are rare but not unheard of in Aslan society. Crimes are different from the insults or slurs that provoke duels, and are classified into three categories: crimes of passion, crimes with victims, and crimes of honour.
- Crimes of passion involve misbehavior prompted by temper, anger, or provocation. The accused is judged by the head of the family, pride, or clan involved.
- Crimes with victims involve taking money or items of value, or violating the person of another for profit (kidnapping, terrorism, piracy). General practice is to have an impartial earleatrais consider the case and present findings.
- Crimes of honour involve failure to observe the rituals established for social behaviour. Judgement is made by the pride or clan head, depending on the severity of the crime. Crimes of honour are the most serious in Aslan society; in practice, most are never tried as a duel to the death occurs first.
World Economy[edit]
The Khaukheairl issue the Khaukhi currency.
