Mainworld Data[edit]

Malkei is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]
Malkei has 85-95% of its surface covered by liquid water with a few small continents, and a number of islands and archipelagos. Dry land is limited. Wilderness refueling is possible.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
This world is also known as Khoengirrgh (as preferred by Vargr). The world was colonized in waves from Vland Sector, and its diverse population did not get along with each other. Most communities were crowded together in a small number of island chains, and connected by fleets of wandering fishermen and traders. Land shortages and resource conflicts boiled over into feuds between communities and families.
World Starport[edit]
Malkei 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. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
Later History[edit]
The Vargr invasions of the Rebellion period caused Lamas to relax its control over the world, and fragmentation was unavoidable.
The Assemblage of 1116 seized the highport in 1127, and the world became a refuge for its surviving forces after the Battle of Ashes. The highport is under the exclusive control of the descendants of these raiders, and the Ngorsraek faction uses it to influence the warring nations on the world surface. By controlling trade and access to the world, many surface nations have become Vargr tributaries. Though this arrangement means having to tolerate the nationalistic Ngorsraek and their activities, the Regency prefers it to the simmering communal tensions that threaten to immerse the world in never ending civil war.
