Native Lifeforms

Imauian lifeforms are quite hostile, but this is countered through the use of 'sonic stakes', sensor posts that produce a noise that most of the larger animals find intolerable. The posts were imported from Kimalad, a few jumps down the Medurma Main.

History and Background

Imau grew in importance as a result of the Vilani Pacification Campaign. The current population of 570 are all the permanent naval staff at the base although at any particular moment there is probably between two and four times that number on board visiting ships.

World Starport (St)

Imau 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.

• There is an associated Imperial Naval Base, hosting elements of the 186th Fleet. The naval base became a crucial strategic system in the assembling, maintenance and repair of the Archduke's fleets.
