History & Background (Dossier)

World Starport (St)

Missooet has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Population (P)

Missooet has a population of 70,000 sophonts (tens of thousands).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

World Demographics

• Vargr, mostly (Ovaghoun Vargr)
• Vilani
• Small numbers of other races such as Bwap, Hhkar, and Solomani.

World Languages

• Ikonaz Vargr: A form of the dominant Ovaghoun language in the Ikonaz Sphere (and so in the Rukadukaz Republic).
• Ikonaz Vilani: A variant of the above altered to suit Human vocalization.

World Technology Level (T)

Missooet possesses a Technology Level of TL–5.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone, radio, and television.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion, and the most fundamental atomic energy.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Ground cars or automobiles and tracked vehicles.
  • Water: Large ships and submersibles with steel hulls.
  • Air: Early aircraft including seaplanes and very early unmanned rockets.

World Government (G)

Missooet has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.

World Law (L)

Missooet has a moderate law level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Light assault weapons, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.

World Timeline

Major events that have affected this world and the wider region that it lies within include the following:

• -1711: Near the end of the Vargr Pillaging, the proto-Ovaghoun conquer the world of Ikon.
  • Over time, the local Vilani culturally overrun their Vargr overlords, reshaping the Ovaghoun Vargr into a distinct, almost hybridised culture.
• -55: The Mmoannikh Accords between representatives of Logaksu Vargr and Ovaghoun Vargr societies ends a series of conflicts between the two cultures.
  • The Accords are rejected by the central Ikonaz government, leading to a shattering of the unity of the Ovaghoun.
• 175-191: The Julian War, which sees numerous attacks on Ikon, all of which fail in breaking the homeworld of the Ovaghoun.
  • The Ikonaz become a prominent member bloc of the Julian Protectorate.
• Circa 723: The Association of Good Wolves, the current government of Ikon, encourages the emigration of the working (i.e. Irilitok Vargr) classes to other, nearby worlds -- going so far as to subsidise 70% of the cost involved.
• Circa 937-940: The Fellowship of Nobles, the current Ikonaz government, collapses.
  • The Rukadukaz Republic is founded as the government of the Ikonaz Sphere in the aftermath.
• 942: The Julian Protectorate and the Hegemony of Lorean formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Protectorate.
  • The Rukadukaz insist upon a 'buffer zone' of neutral systems between their territory and the Loreans.
