• This is a hot world, with a climate of high temperatures.
• It is a world within the Kostov Confederate Republic, a member state of the Solomani Confederation, in the Kostov Subsector of Neworld Sector.

World Culture

Marin is populated by the individuals and families from Kostov with enough personal resources to create personal fiefdoms here. Each enclave is a low-level fortress-want-to-be.

The people encountered during this survey were generally unpleasant. They are, as a group, entitled, bigoted, and arrogant. They also make a point of being armored, armed, and in groups. As such, they tend to bully each other and any travellers that are available. As a side-note, weapons are not allowed within the starport, and the citizenry is less than capable in hand-to-hand fisticuffs.

Urbanization

No centralized urban centers excepting the starport proper.
