Mainworld Size (S)[edit]
Ordred is a Small World between 2,400km and 4,000km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.1G and 0.17G. The horizon will appear about 2.5km away.
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]
Ordred has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask.

Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
This is one of the five worlds at the undisputed heart of Human civilization in coreward Phlask. Hollerith, Heathleah, Gradule, Alva, and Ordred dominate the region. Dating from the latter years of the Rule of Man, boosted by those fleeing the economic decay of the early Long Night, they form a distinct and prosperous cultural region beholden to no major power.
Ordred is more Hiver-influenced than the other four worlds, in large part because it lies on a route connecting the Hive Federation to the allied state of the Ithklur Aexzz.
