History & Background / Dossier[edit]
World Starport[edit]
Fakkan has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World Population (P)[edit]
Fakkan has a population of 6,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).
- High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
World Demographics[edit]
Rar Errall is unusual in the Julian Protectorate for being a one-species state. The entire population is Vargr, with Urzaeng Vargr making up a significant majority. These Vargr are generally descendants of refugees from Gashikan and Trenchans.
Only 20% of this planet's population are in fact citizens of Rar Errall. The non-Vargr majority, mostly Human, have no political representation.
Urbanization[edit]
Urzaeng are unusually territorial for Vargr, and their settlements reflect this, being far less packed and chaotic than those of mainstream Vargr.
- The Urzaeng have a disdain for weakness. Runts, elderly, and the chronically ill are usually collected into separate communities. Someone with a temporary illness is wise to seclude himself from the public until he recovers.
World Technology Level[edit]
Fakkan possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone and telegraphs, widespread printing.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Trains and early automobiles.
- Water: Clippers and steam ships.
- Air: Dirigibles, balloons, very basic rockets.
World Government[edit]
Fakkan has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.
World Military[edit]
No information yet available.
World Law (L)[edit]
Fakkan has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (outside private residences or visiting starships).
