Magen is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a member of the Senlis Foederate in the Pax Rulin Subsector of Trojan Reach Sector.
  • This world-system hosts a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Magen is a poor, non-industrial world located in the Pax Rulin Subsector of the Trojan Reach.

Magen has only recently been conquered by the Foederate and has enough surface water so that the government-supplied drugs used so extensively on Senlis and Orsasch have not significantly affected the population.

  • As such, Magen’s population is considerably less subservient.
  • So far, the rulers on Senlis has been able to keep the Magen in line with the threat of force, but opposition parties continue to support leaving the Foederate and applying for Imperial membership -- or at least for protection from their former allies.

World Starport[edit]

Magen has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes 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 Technology Level[edit]

Magen possesses a Technology Level of TL–9.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics and satellite communication and data networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fusion power.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
    • Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
    • FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.

World Government[edit]

Magen is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.

Government code 6 might be more appropriate now, given the relatively recent annexation by Senlis.

Population[edit]

900,000
