Euryale is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.

  • 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.
  • It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Suhayl Subsector of Canopus Sector.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Abundant native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

Vast forests and jungles, rich with life, clad the land. Very few of the lifeforms native to the world have been studied in any detail.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Euryale is a Forbidden World and is designated as a Red Zone. It presents serious risks and dangers due to the environment or native life forms, laws or customs, or other conditions that make it extremely dangerous to visitors.

  • Travel to this world is prohibited.

It is a member of the Ursulan Strand, a small cluster and minor trade route lying within the rimward-trailing quadrant of Canopus Sector.

The world is home to a substantial community of Uplifted Apes, mostly descended from Terran gorillas. The system is patrolled by the Solomani Navy, who ensure the world's isolation. The Apes live peaceful agrarian lives and keep themselves to themselves, only occasionally interacting with the Solomani military who watch over them.

Solomani Security keeps a close eye on things to ensure the security of the Confederation and the well-being of its loyal citizens. Almost anyone could be a SolSec informant, passing on all sorts of useful information: some gain a reward or benefit for their actions, others are coerced, but many see it as an act of duty to help protect the Solomani state and its interests.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Euryale does not have a starport. The Class X Starport is an indication that no starport exists in the system. There are no facilities or services available, and no site marked for landing.

World Population (P)[edit]

Euryale has a population of 30,000 sophonts (tens of thousands).

World Technology Level (T)[edit]

Euryale possesses a Technology Level of TL–2.

World Government (G)[edit]

Euryale has a Captive Government or Colony. The world is ruled by an external government, there is no self-rule. This is a colony or conquered area. The local government is an oligarchy appointed by, and answerable only to, the external government.

The world is directly administered by the Confederation military authorities.

World Law (L)[edit]

Euryale 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.
