History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

As is common for the less important worlds of the Tellerian Cluster, political control over Octava is disputed.

World Starport[edit]

Octava has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
