Ku Pryuld is a nonindustrial, rich, agricultural world with improving living conditions due to a bustling agro-economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
• Its economy is bustling and an increase in living conditions is expected in the near future.
• It is a member of the Zhodani Consulate in Detsiaiem Subsector of Far Frontiers Sector in the Province of Iadr Nsobl.

• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it dangerous to visitors.
• This world contains an archaeological site with suspected high-tech remnants of the now-vanished Ancients precursor race.

History & Background (Dossier)

Ku Pryuld has an important archaeological site, believed to hold high-tech remnants of the now-vanished Ancients precursor race.

The Chirper population have been incorporated into the Zhodani political system and apparently function as willing agricultural workers supplying the interstellar economy.

World Starport (St)

Ku Pryuld 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)

Ku Pryuld has a population of 2,000,000 sophonts (millions).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.
• The population almost entirely consists of Chirpers.
• A few humans and other sophonts may be encountered.

Linguistic Topography

• Oynprith, a ceremonial and ritualistic language, is apparently universal among the Chirper communities.
  • A number of local Chirper languages are also spoken.
• Zdetl, the language of the Zhodani and the Zhodani Consulate, may also occasionally be heard.

Ku Pryuld has a moderate level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended.
