Mille Falcs is a nonindustrial, fluidic hellworld with a population struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

• Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants.

• This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or above the standard for Charted Space.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Mille Falcs has 15-25% of its surface covered by liquid water or ice heavily tainted with other substances, which makes it dangerous, corrosive, or toxic. Wilderness refueling will be difficult. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds may be Hell Worlds.
