Qebebl is a barren world with no overt population, government, or law level.

  • This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.

System Data[edit]

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

Mainworld Data[edit]

Qebebl is tidally locked to its primary star.

  • The star is always high in the sky on the bright face, it hangs on horizon in the twilight zone, while the cold dark face is in permanent darkness.
  • The world experiences libration - a regular wobble - as it orbits, causing the star to move in the sky.

It orbits within the prime region of its star's narrow habitable zone.

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Qebebl is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Qebebl has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Over billions of years, stellar flares thrown off by the primary star have stripped away most of the world's atmosphere.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Qebebl has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

  • Locally, detailed maps may be available.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Primitive radiation-tolerant native life occupying a number of ecological niches. Its metabolic functions barely maintain the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Qebebl is a wilderness, a wild and lonely place that almost never sees visitors. Most of the planets and moons within the system have never been visited by an intelligent being.

  • Information about the system is limited.
  • The resources of the system are untapped.

The system's star experiences periodic bouts of flare activity, which causes interference, strange tones and noises, and heavy static on commo and sensors.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date: previously undocumented groups may now inhabit the system and maintain their own culture, forms of government, and systems of law.

  • Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Qebebl does not have a starport. The Class X Starport is an indication that no starport exists in the system. There are no facilities or services available, and no site marked for landing.

World Population (P)[edit]

Qebebl is a Barren World with no sophont population. It may still possess lifeforms.

World Technology Level (T)[edit]

Qebebl possesses a Tech Level of TL–0.

  • The world has no technological base.

World Government (G)[edit]

Qebebl has no government or ruling authority of any kind.

World Law (L)[edit]

Qebebl has no law level. No laws of any kind are enforced.
