History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Roaa is a large planet with advanced technology and a high population.

There is a clan Naval Base and extensive military shipyards in the system. However, it is travel code green, with no special restrictions for travelers with clan permission to be on that side of the border. It is open to trade, and invites outsiders to purchase its vessels.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Roaa has a Class A Starport, an excellent 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 other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Population (P)[edit]

Pusan has a population of 30,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).

Urbanization[edit]

Aslan architecture tends to the organic and the rounded. They favour artistry over efficiency in the design of their buildings -- every Aslan structure is different. Even in mass-produced housing, residents will strive to make their territory uniquely theirs.

  • Since Aslan descend from predators and enjoy open terrain, their buildings often feature both open rooms of great size and a number of concealed rooms, balconies, hidden passageways and hideaways.

World Law Level (L)[edit]

Criminal acts are rare but not unheard of in Aslan society. Crimes are different from the insults or slurs that provoke duels, and are classified into three categories: crimes of passion, crimes with victims, and crimes of honour.

  • Crimes of passion involve misbehavior prompted by temper, anger, or provocation. The accused is judged by the head of the family, pride, or clan involved.
  • Crimes with victims involve taking money or items of value, or violating the person of another for profit (kidnapping, terrorism, piracy). General practice is to have an impartial earleatrais consider the case and present findings.
  • Crimes of honour involve failure to observe the rituals established for social behaviour. Judgement is made by the pride or clan head, depending on the severity of the crime. Crimes of honour are the most serious in Aslan society; in practice, most are never tried as a duel to the death occurs first.

Economy[edit]

Roaa is the home of Tlaserlaahel. This Aslan interface line operates between the Aslan Hierate and non-Hierate worlds in the Reaver's Deep Sector. The corporation is controlled by the Yehaso clan, who have great influence on Roaa.

The shipyards of Roaa are famous throughout the Reaver's Deep region as the source of some of the finest examples of shipbuilding found in the Aslan Hierate. Owned and operated by Larleaftea Hryawaowya, an Aslan commercial concern with interests in everything from shipbuilding to interstellar trade, Roaa's shipyards are an important place from which many Aslan clans and companies buy ships for a wide range of uses -- local trade, exploration, military operations and just about every other aspect of travel between stars. Some examples of the ships that are sold are the Eiaikeiar Intruder Transport, the Tleiatre Battle Leader and the Stayaow Combat Scout.
