Ixchel is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Liberty Hall Subsector of Beyond Sector.
  • This is a frozen world of low temperatures.

World Starport[edit]

Ixchel has a Class B Starport, a good 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.
