Filentred is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.
- As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
- 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 member of the Third Imperium in the Moibin Subsector of Reft Sector in the Domain of Vland.
- This world contains an Imperial Scout Base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
Description (Planetology)[edit]
Much of the land surface of Filentred is home to several species of plant whose pollen is a severe irritant to humans. For this reason, the majority of the population dwell at sea. This does not remove the taint completely, but distance and moist air cause much of the pollen to drop to the surface, reducing the burden on filtration systems.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Filentred is the trailing-side anchor for the Trans-Islands Run which is the access route to the Islands Cluster. From here, it's possible to make a single J4 (or two tedious J2) towards Riftspan Station.
Urbanization[edit]
The 700,000 or so inhabitants mostly live in cities of about 50,000-100,000 people located in shallow waters off the coasts of islands that have been cleared of the offending pollen-producing vegetation. The land is used for agriculture, though most of Filentred’s food comes from the sea. The cities each have a governor who wields considerable power but answers to the world’s ruling class.
