Inapiirn is a poor, moderate population pre-industrial hellworld, with over a hundred million, but not yet a billion sophonts struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often form intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
  • This world would like to become a major industrial powerhouse in the subsector, but lacks the population and resources to build an adequate workforce and industrial business sector.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Balech Subsector of Gushemege Sector in the Domain of Vland.
  • It is the homeworld of the Vapethi, a sophont species and minor race.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Discovered early on in the Vilani exploration of Gushemege, the native Vapethi had already surveyed their own system. The Vilani first noted intelligent life in the system when a scout ship ran into a sophisticated unmanned probe.

The Vapethi were instrumental in the removal of the Vilani from Inapiirn when the Terran Confederation advanced on Vland during the Nth Interstellar War. The Vilani had withheld their technology from the Vapethi, who resented this action. With the rise of the Solomani, the Vapethi could be found wandering the border of Verge, Gushemege and Ilelish, exploring space out of pure curiosity.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]

Inapiirn, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
