Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
This world is a planetary theme park -- a whole world dedicated to entertainment -- but with a hidden dark side. From family fun to lavish decadence, from hundred–mile kiddie rides to recreations of the court of Caligula, Kamsii has it all. The Kamsii Company says everybody will have a good time, and nobody crosses the Company. Not twice.
This world is part of the Gurishi Cluster.

Native Lifeforms[edit]
Hansen's bear is the biggest extant land predator native to Kamsii. It lives in the forested areas on Kamsii (there were five subspecies spread over several continents; two are now extinct), and captures smaller prey by waiting in ambush and stunning it after a short rush. It is naturally active both day and night, and has keen night vision well into the infrared.
Other native lifeforms include the Kamsii gazelle and the chatterbuck.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The world is entirely given over to entertainment facilities and managed wilderness areas, both administered by KamsiiCo. The vast majority of the inhabitants (of Kamsii and the system as a whole) are KamsiiCo employees, dependents of employees, or tourists. Various Imperial agencies maintain offices on Jadzil Highport (including recruiting stations for the Imperial Navy and Scout Service), but few other Imperial installations exist.
Imperial Landed Nobility (N)[edit]
Kamsii, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the fiefdoms of three members of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversee affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial knight, the Imperial representative to the world.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial baron.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial viscount.
- It holds the fiefdom of an Imperial subsector duke, who also conducts affairs regarding the entire subsector at the Interstellar and Imperial level.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Kamsii 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 274th Fleet.
- The surface facility is Jadzil Downport.
- Jadzil Down is highly unusual among starports in not having a startown. There has never been a low-control area on the planet, and if KamsiiCo has its way, there never will be.
World Population (P)[edit]
600,000,000, although a large percentage of this at any one time is tourists.
World Demographics[edit]
Humaniti, population 95%
- Other, population 5%
- Small enclaves of Hivers, Droyne and K'kree live here, as voluntary exhibits advertised as allowing Imperials to experience an "authentic" alien lifestyle.
Linguistic Topography[edit]
The most commonly heard languages are:
- Core Anglic, a dialect of one of the two official languages of the Imperium.
- Vilani, one of the two official languages of the Imperium.
Urbanization[edit]
Aside from the amusement parks, most of the world's surface is undeveloped or underdeveloped, although KamsiiCo maintains highly sophisticated arcologies for employees, and an extensive network of communications and surveillance satellites.
World Government (G)[edit]
Kamsii is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes 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. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.
