Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Harleaoua is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Harleaoua has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Harleaoua has 45-55% of its surface covered by liquid water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

  • The world experiences low temperatures.
  • Much of the surface is a frigid, hostile environment.
