	Remarks

Mainworld Data

Loneseda has a normal climate and a standard oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere. Lonesta's oceans remain largely unexplored except for the areas immediately around the island Downport. A small number of uplifted dolphins are employed in surveying Lonesta's oceans.

Loneseda has 5 Gas Giants of varying size in the system. The rotation often causes gravitic abnormalities that can affect skimming for fuel. This feature prevents Loneseda from being a major refueling location on the trade route of which it is part. It is rumored that beasts of the deep seas have attacked craft during oceanic refueling.

History & Background (Dossier)

A small population of Dolphins resides on this world.

World Languages

• Anglic
• Delphinic Trinary
  • This language, also known as Delphinese, involves various clicks, rasps, chirps, creaks, hoots and whistles. Due to the spread of Dolphins across Charted Space, it has evolved into a multitude of dialects. It can take a Dolphin some time to learn a new dialect; errors are often seen by both parties as humorous.
  • For communication with humans and other races, most Dolphins speak ordinary, if flowery, Anglic.
• Vilani
