Partricia is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Duhamel Subsector of Theta Borealis Sector.

• It is a balmy tropical world, with a climate of high temperatures.
• This world is a colony of a nation-state on Dennson.

System Data

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

• The mainworld.
• x5 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x1 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

The mainworld orbits within the star's Habitable Zone.

• It lies within the zone's warmer inner H+ region
• It receives higher levels of stellar energy.

• The world orbits inside the star's Jump Shadow.

Mainworld Size (S)

Partricia is a Meso World between 10,400km and 12,000km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.7G and 0.9G. The horizon will appear about 4.7km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Partricia has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. The Thin Atmosphere does not require survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Partricia has 75-85% of its surface covered by liquid water with a few large continents and extensive islands. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Satellites:

Partricia retains a tiny planetoid moon.

• Its surface is cratered and irregular
• It orbits once every few days.

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 watery world.)

Native Lifeforms

Abundant native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

Partricia is a primitive backwater. It is an agricultural colony of a nation-state of Dennson.

• The resources of the system are largely untapped.

There is very little activity within the system.

• Commercial traffic is very infrequent: ships rarely visit.
• Commo only occasionally picks up signals and private chatter. Communications are in Riftian Anglic.
• One or two commercial navigation beacons may be active.
• Vessels are unlikely to 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)

Partricia has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Demographics (P)

Partricia has a population of 8 million.

Urbanization

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

• The population are concentrated into a single relatively densely populated region.
• Much of the surface of the world remains as wilderness.

World Technology Level (T)

Partricia possesses a Technology Level of TL–3.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Printing press, the mechanical telegraph, and the first audio recordings.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Coal or other simple hydrocarbon fuels and early steam engines.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Bicycles and early steam coaches with advanced roadways.
  • Water: Advanced sailing and early steam engine ships.
  • Air: The earliest hot air balloons.

World Government (G)

Partricia has a Captive Government or Colony. The world is ruled by an external government, there is no self-rule. This is a colony or conquered area. The local government is an oligarchy appointed by, and answerable only to, the external government.

Approximately 30,000 personnel.

World Law (L)

Partricia has a low law level. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate. Portable energy weapons, body pistols, explosives, and poison gas are typically regulated or prohibited.
