Remarks

System Data[edit]

Water is scarce in the Kryslion system and there is no gas giant so starship fuel prices are considerably higher than elsewhere.

  • This keeps this system a backwater despite its position and high population.

Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Kryslion is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Kryslion has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Kryslion has 25-35% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has a few small seas. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants will be recycled.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The society of Kryslion is based on strict water discipline and travellers are warned to be familiar with the laws on water use and recycling as the penalties for infractions are high.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Kryslion has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the 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 only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Population (P)[edit]

Kryslion has a population of 50,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).
