World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Orphlenal 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.

Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
- A small, unobtrusive security force is drawn from the most suitable members of the local militia and stiffened with navy regulars.
World Population (P)[edit]
Orphlenal has a population of 60,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).
- High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
World Demographics[edit]
- Za'tachk, 100%
World Languages[edit]
Urbanization[edit]
Za'tachk feel comfortable and safe in large groups; being alone means nobody can assist them if they are threatened or endangered, and Za'tachk are notoriously timid. Za'tachk cities are crowded, noisy and busy places.
World Government (G)[edit]
Orphlenal is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy, and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.
A council of matriarchs heads Za'tachk government, with three of their number, known as the Rearmost Secretaries, chosen as the figureheads.
World Military[edit]
Renowned for their timidity, Za'tachk make heavy use of drones piloted remotely, from a safe distance.
As a member of the Hive Federation, Orphlenal can theoretically call upon Ithklur warriors as well as its own defence forces. However, the timid Za'tachk are wary of Ithklur, whose exuberant violence they find alarming.
World Law Level (L)[edit]
Orphlenal has a moderate level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. All firearms except shotguns, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
On Za'tachk worlds, police rarely carry lethal weaponry. Instead, they use a kaath device, which fires an electrical induction beam that stimulates the brain's pleasure centre, rendering those hit helpless for a brief time.
Za'tachk law assumes an individual is innocent until proven guilty. They utilise lawyers to defend or prosecute the accused. Legal trickery is severely penalised.
World Technology Level (TL)[edit]
Orphlenal possesses a Technology Level of TL–13 or TL-D in Hexadecimal Notation.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovideo recorders.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Miniature super-batteries, prototype collectors, advanced fusion plants.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land, Water & Air: Personal G-Tubes and advanced gravcraft.
- Space: Advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
- FTL: Jump Drive-4.

World Infrastructure[edit]

World Culture[edit]
Za'tachk instinctively seek to escape uncertainty or aggression by achieving "higher ground"; this can be literal, or an appeal to moral establishment, proven theories, or tradition. Culture is structured and stylised, with little initiative.
Za'tachk have no rituals around the consumption of food. There are no standard mealtimes, nor a tendency to gather together specifically to eat. Instead, Za'tachk graze throughout the day, regardless of where they are and what they are doing. Za'tachk always carry food with them as a matter of course and every gathering will include a selection of foods, regardless of the formality.
