History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

All 450 or so inhabitants of this previously uninhabited world are military veterans, who as a reward for outstanding service to the Imperium were granted land by Emperor Strephon. Khasha has only been opened up to limited colonization since 1091. Most have set up small farm-holdings around the equator rearing groats imported from the Spinward Marches which have subsequently been geneered to thrive in the cold climate and tainted atmosphere.

World Starport[edit]

Khasha has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
