Eventine is a nonindustrial, fluidic hellworld with a population struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

  • A fluid world has an oceanic geography consisting of heavily contaminated water or a substance such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquid.
  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Oscuro Subsector of Mavuzog Sector.

Mainworld Data[edit]

Eventine orbits at the outer edge of its star's habitable zone.

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Eventine is a Big World between 13,600km and 15,200km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 1G and 1.3G. The horizon will appear about 5.4km away. Vessels with only 1G of thrust should avoid landing on this world.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Eventine has an Exotic Atmosphere and possesses an unusual gas mix which requires the use of oxygen tanks. Additionally, protective suits, while not necessary, are recommended. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

  • The world has a transparent dense pressure atmosphere composed of almost pure nitrogen, with only trace amounts of oxygen and other gases.
  • It experiences low temperatures.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Eventine has 25-35% of its surface covered by liquid water or ice heavily tainted with other substances, which makes it dangerous, corrosive, or toxic. Wilderness refueling will be difficult. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds may be Hell Worlds.

  • Much of the surface is covered in glaciers, pack ice, and ice sheets.
  • The ice on the surface is unsuitable for use or consumption without extensive filtering and purification.
  • Refining for fuel may cause issues with shipboard purification plants.

Satellites:[edit]

Eventine retains two vacuum moons.

  • They orbit once every few weeks.
