Remo 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 Xelan Subsector of Far Home Sector.

System Data[edit]

Valasha-Remo System[edit]

The primary is Valasha, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 3.042 Sols, a mass of 1.248 Sols, and a diameter of 1.845 million km. Orbital positions (I) through (IV) are unavailable due to the presence of the companion star. (V-I) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, and (V-II) Remo, designated the mainworld, have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. (VI-I) a very thin atmosphere hospitable world, (VI-II) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, (VII) a trace atmosphere iceworld, (VIII) a vacuum iceworld, (IX) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, (X-I) a large gas giant, (X-II) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, (XI) a ringed large gas giant, and (XII) a vacuum worldlet form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Sudos Subsystem[edit]

The companion is Sudos, a red subdwarf star that orbits Valasha at a mean distance of 0.37 AU (orbital position (II), 55.4 million km) and has an orbital period of 73 days 14 hours. It has a luminosity of 0.0056 Sols, a mass of 0.124 Sols, and a diameter of 189,000 km. It retains no planetary bodies.

Mainworld Data[edit]

(V-II) Remo[edit]

(V-II) Remo is designated the mainworld. It orbits Valasha at a mean distance of 3.41 AU (510.1 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 5 years 233 days and a rotation period of 25 hours. The axial tilt is 162 degrees. Remo has a diameter of 8,526 km, a density of 4.89 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.59 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 0.93 bar and a composition of 79% nitrogen (N2), 19% oxygen (O2), 1% argon (Ar), and 1% carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapor (H2O), ozone (O3), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The taint is caused by the relatively high levels of background radiation: emission rates exceed 2 rads per hour. Approximately 43% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water and sheets of water-ice: average tidal ranges exceed 0.1m. Mean surface temperature: -13°C. The climate is rated as Cold and experiences minor seasonal changes during the local year. The atmosphere is active and strong weather systems driven by the star and the seas sweep across the globe.

Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]

Total surface area: 228 million km², Land surface area: 130 million km², Water and ice surface area: 98 million km².

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Valasha-Remo System[edit]

Remo, the mainworld, has primitive native life, consisting almost entirely of microscopic cyanobacteria-parallels that exist in most ecological niches. Their metabolic functions maintain the process of atmospheric renewal.

The cold marginally hospitable world lying in orbital position (VI-I) (within the H+ region of the outer system) has primitive native life, consisting entirely of microscopic cyanobacteria-parallels that exist in any location where they can find even a minimal trace of shelter and warmth. Their metabolic functions maintain the process of atmospheric renewal.

No other world in the system is known to have native life.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

World starport[edit]

Remo has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes 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 technology level[edit]

Remo possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
    • Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
    • Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
    • Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

World government[edit]

Remo is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is 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. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.
