Olympus (RD 3021) is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and nonindustrial in nature.

  • These worldlets warrant 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.
  • The worldlets require extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Urlaqqash Subsector of Reaver's Deep Sector in the Domain of Ilelish.
  • This world has an Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

World Starport (St)[edit]
