Mansania is an agricultural, nonindustrial, pre-rich world with a growing agro-economy, but still lacks an adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

  • 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 world has promising economic future although it needs to recruit a larger labor force in order to achieve the desired prosperity.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Alba Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Among the most dangerous species on Mansania is the Nellaratin. The name translates from the local dialect as 'worst of them all'. The core of this creature is a fungal mass around the size of an elephant, which is surrounded by a mass of tentacle-like growths. These can dig into soft ground for anchorage, but generally move the creature around at a slow walking pace. The normal mode of feeding is for the Nellaratin to drag itself over a downed victim and remain there until it is partially digested.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Mansania was settled by Terran colonists during the late Interstellar Wars. The planet features hostile and unappetizing native plant life and mobile carnivorous fungi that thwarted early attempts to seed the planet with Terran life. During the Long Night the colonists declined to TL-5 and retreated to a small, heavily fortified island city. Over time their society became bound by a complex caste system and a maze of rules and customs.

Since re-contact in 700 they have slowly integrated into Solomani Confederation society.
