History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Laeil is a frontier, a wild and lonely place that rarely sees visitors.

  • The resources of the system are largely untapped.

It is the homeworld of the Kohudo, large, strong, fur-covered humanoids that can have sudden changes of temperament.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date: previously undocumented groups may now inhabit the system and maintain their own culture, forms of government, and systems of law.

  • Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Laeil 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.

World Population (P)[edit]

Laeil has a population of 900,000,000 sophonts (hundreds of millions).

  • The population almost entirely consists of Kohudo.
  • A few Xubux may occasionally be encountered.
