History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

World Starport (St)[edit]

Krain has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

Economy[edit]

The Alakavala Corporation -- a Geonee company from Massilia Sector -- has been buying up property and industrial capital on Krain (and on nearby Mirror). The Geonee are eager to get a foothold in the Core market and hope to rapidly increase the Tech Level, making this world a viable player in the heavy machinery and automation industries.
