Nahru is a low-population vacuum world, with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts, warranting hazardous environment precautions.
- Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
- It is a member of the Ral Ranta in the Adar Subsector of Hinterworlds Sector.

World Starport[edit]
Nahru 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.
Linguistic Topography[edit]
- Ral Ranta: The guttural, abrupt language of the Ral Ranta clans, heavily derived from Solomani pidgin.

World Government[edit]
Nahru has no central government or substantial government apparatus; an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.

Trade Data[edit]
Ral Rantan merchants are generally unscrupulous but will keep their word and any deal they make to the letter of the agreement -- this includes any verbal contract. They expect the other party to honor a deal the same way, on the threat of violence. It should be noted that Ral Rantans are often very adept at finding loopholes and exceptions to deals, agreements, and contracts, and may define the terms of one in unexpected ways.
World Demographics[edit]

World Culture[edit]
Dueling is a widely practiced means of settling disputes. An honorable death is a desirable outcome for a Ral Rantan. They are generally an aggressive, fearless people who say what they mean and mean what they say (though they are also notorious for withholding information in order to gain an advantage, and have no qualms about exploiting others). Demands, threats, and intimidation are an everyday part of life.
Most Ral Ranta have a deep reverence for their ancestors and practice some form of ancestor worship. Having ancestors that are great or notable warriors is considered a source of pride.
