Ghisaersae 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 Non-Aligned world dominated by Vargr sophonts located in the Uthe Subsector of Gvurrdon Sector.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

No information yet available.

This world has been called Balent by its human colonists and periodically swaps names depending upon which group (Human or Vargr) have the upper hand.

World Starport[edit]

Ghisaersae has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Population (P)[edit]

Ghisaersae has a population of 7,000,000 sophonts (millions).
