Rybnik is a nonindustrial fluid world.

  • A fluid world has an oceanic geography consisting of heavily contaminated water or a substance such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquid.
  • 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 member of the Old Worlds polity in the Old Worlds Subsector of Crucis Margin Sector. Possession has been disputed by the Katowice Conquest.

Remarks

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Rybnik has only a rudimentary starport. This was a deliberate measure on the part of the Katowice Conquest, making transit through the system and into Katowice territory more difficult.

World Starport[edit]

Rybnik has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
