Omzhdeie is a poor, nonindustrial world.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• This world has few prospects for economic development.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Bilahew Subsector of Fulani Sector.

• It is a mainworld which is a satellite of either a gas giant or another world.
• This is a cold world with an overall climate that is at the lower temperature range of human-congruous sophont endurance.
• It is a member of the Fulani Main.

System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x6 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x2 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

Omzhdeie is a major moon of a large gas giant.

The mainworld and its gas giant primary world orbit towards the outer edge of the star's habitable zone.

• They receive low levels of stellar energy.

Mainworld Size (S)

Omzhdeie is a Small World between 4,000km and 5,600km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.24G and 0.34G. The horizon will appear about 3km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Omzhdeie has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. While the thin atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Omzhdeie has 25-35% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has a few small seas. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants will be recycled.

• The world experiences low temperatures.
• Much of the surface is a frigid, hostile environment.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.
• Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
• Detailed survey data commands premium prices.

(Placeholder chart, predominantly dry world.)

Native Lifeforms

Primitive native life occupying a number of ecological niches. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

• Native lifeforms are cryophilic - they thrive in low temperatures.

History & Background (Dossier)

Omzhdeie is a quiet backwater with a stable economy and acceptable standards of living.

• The resources of the system are being exploited.

A few organizations and private interests are active within the system.

• Commercial traffic is relatively infrequent: ships only occasionally visit.
• Commo is filled with signals and private chatter. Communications are in Zdetl.
• A single commercial navigation beacon may be active.
• A few vessels may be operating among the other worlds and moons that make up the system.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date.

• Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (St)

Omzhdeie has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few 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 a downport.

World Demographics (P)

Omzhdeie has a population of 800,000 Vlazhdumecta humans.

Urbanization

A few large urban centers are surrounded by smaller satellite communities.

• Inhabited areas are dotted across the world.
• Structures and facilities are sealed against local environmental conditions.
• Much of the surface of the world remains as wilderness.

World Technology Level (T)

Omzhdeie possesses a Technology Level of TL–8.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics, improved telephones, and satellite communication and data networks.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Improved geothermal and improved batteries.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Advanced automobiles.
  • Water: Triphibians and early artificial gills.
  • Air: Improved helicopters and hypersonic jets.
  • Space: Space shuttles, early space stations, and improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

World Government (G)

Omzhdeie 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 Military

Approximately 3000 personnel.

World Law (L)

Omzhdeie has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (outside private residences or visiting starships).
