Hulun is a moderate population fluidic hellworld with over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in population size, who are 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. Survivors often form intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
• The world serves as the subsector capital with the significant extra trade and prestige associated with that role.
• It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Cybele Subsector of Aldebaran Sector.

• This world has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships.
• This world has a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces.

Mainworld Data

Hulun is a standard-sized world with exposed magma seas on its surface and an atmosphere of sulfuric compounds, nitrogen, and heavy noble gases. Oxygen exists mostly as surface compounds.

Mainworld Geography & Topography

The entire subsurface of Hulun contains an unusual amount of Uranium and Thorium metal and compounds, which has resulted in active subsurface nuclear activity. The planetary core measurements indicates that it undergoes periods of nuclear criticality.

The end result is constant vulcanism and dynamic areas of magma seas.

The current set of continents are all young, less than 1 million years old, with high, bare mountain ranges. Settlements tend toward the more stable areas and are built to mitigate the constant tectonic activity.

World Starport

Hulun has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Demographics

• Humaniti, 100%

Urbanization

Hulun cities are carefully engineered with a solid, mobile base and flexible upper areas to minimize tectonic impact on residents. Urban areas are found in sheltered, stable areas with hovercraft transport being used to commute to industrial work areas.

World Technology Level

Hulun possesses a Technology Level of TL–12 or TL-C in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land, Water & Air: Personal G-Tubes and advanced gravcraft.
  • Space: Advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-3.

World Government

Hulun is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.

World Law Level

Hulun has a moderate law level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Light assault weapons, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
