History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

This world was a member of the Chanestin Kingdom, a rival to the Sylean Federation in the centuries preceding formation of the Third Imperium.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Rilik Aash 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.
