History & Background (Dossier)

The homeworld of a populous and influential member race of the Hive Federation, Orarnak is the heart of the Orarnak Cultural Region, once an independent interstellar nation incorporated into the Hive Federation after the Hiver-K'kree War.

World Starport (Sp)

Orarnak has a Class A Starport, an excellent 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 other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

• Ships are subject to mandatory anti-larval fumigation before leaving, to kill any infant Hivers that might have gotten aboard. Hivers are distressed by the notion that a larva might find itself achieving sapience in an environment absent adult Hivers and suitable nests.

World Population (P)

Orarnak has a population of 6,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).

• High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.

World Demographics

• Orarnak, population 90%
• Other Hive Federation races, population 10%

World Languages

• Hiver Sign Language
• Gurvin
  • Orarnak and other non-Hiver locals will typically speak Gurvin augmented with a pidgin of local languages and Ithkluri, to provide ambiguity and metaphor lacking from the standard Gurvin vocabulary.

Urbanization

Hiver nests within a city are usually small all-Hiver areas, with districts between them populated here by Orarnak. Heavy goods typically move underground through tunnels. Little of this activity is seen at surface level and most industry is buried in the base of structures.

World Government (G)

Orarnak is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is by representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referenda, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.

World Military

As a member of the Hive Federation, Orarnak can call upon Ithklur warriors as well as its own defence forces.
