Paladin is a pre-agricultural, nonindustrial garden 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.
  • It is a garden world with a near-ideal, utopian environment conducive to most forms of sophontic life.
  • It is a pre-agricultural world with an environment suitable for large scale agricultural and livestock industries that have not yet been widely developed.
  • Its economy and population are growing and living conditions are expected to gradually rise barring outside forces.
  • It is a member of the Trindel Confederacy in the Beckann Subsector of Gateway Sector.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

World Starport (St)[edit]

Paladin has a Class B Starport, a good 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 most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Military[edit]

The Trindel Confederacy's navy consists of ships loaned to a central command structure by the three member states, which in turn receive them under loan from individual worlds. Thus a Confederacy vessel might be serving under its world flag, state flag, or the Confederacy flag, and be subject to different priorities at different times.
