History and background

Kuriishe is one of the most peaceful planets in the Imperium. The people here have not known war since the Rule of Man, and the separate states interact on a level almost unheard of anywhere else.

The most popular resort is at Darlan, where views of Kuriishe's only natural water reserve, Lake Darlin, are quite spectacular. Visitors should also take in the waterfalls at Salish that serve the great lake. Care should be taken when venturing out onto the lake, as it is populated by the poisonous Bula fish. These fish are almost identical to another fish called a Jaeshe, which is a great delicacy on Kuriisshe. This tends to lead to a great deal of confusion in many culinary facilities, causing the highest rate of natural food poisoning in this sector.

Other landmarks of interest are the Valleys of Lryin, which are so deep that the local meteorologists have been able to determine that at their deepest point, the valleys enter a period where the ecosystem changes enough for special types of flora to flourish just twice a year. One of the most beautiful flowers that can be found in the valleys are the S'Broos.

World Starport (St)

Kuriishe 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.

  • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
  • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships

World Government (G)

Kuriishe has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.

• The various nations cooperate closely, with minimal friction.

World Law (L)

Kuriishe has an extreme law level which covers every area of interaction. Laws are complex, detailed, and difficult to understand. Every interaction with the government requires an Advocate. Law enforcement is omnipresent and strict. Legal proceeding can take months to years to resolve and may involve dozens of people. A few worlds with this law level may be a Red Zone and others will be an Amber Zone. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (with no exception for private residences; visiting starships are only protected so long as they stay within designated starports and approach corridors).
