Mainworld Data

Mainworld Size (S)

Shadishi is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Shadishi has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Shadishi has 85-95% of its surface covered by liquid water with a few small continents, and a number of islands and archipelagos. Dry land is limited. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

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

(Blank map, predominantly watery world.)

History & Background (Dossier)

Shadishi is a member of the Zed Cluster, a group of systems lying across the Ilelish-Zarushagar border.

The world is inhabited by the Tentrassi, non-humanoid sophonts who arrived in the system using sublight generation ships. Their original homeworld remains unknown.

Shadishi is a Tent World and was transformed through the use of Planetary Engineering, more commonly known as Terraforming. It is now partially covered with a vast, complex tent-like structure that has helped to create more habitable conditions for most kinds of sophont life.

World Starport (St)

Shadishi 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.

• This world is host to a Naval Base.

World Population (P)

Shadishi has a population of 9,000 sophonts (thousands).

• This is a Low Population World and the population would be too low to sustain itself without a little outside assistance. This may represent the home base of a sizable but mostly transient population such as the base of a major starship expedition, the last generation of a dying colony, the first generation of a new colony, or a large outpost that will probably evolve into a colony if not stopped.
• The population almost entirely consists of Tentrassi.

Linguistic Topography

The most commonly heard languages are:

• Anglic, one of the two official languages of the Imperium.
• Tentrassi languages.
• Vilani, one of the two official languages of the Imperium.

There may be smaller councils or regional bodies to draft the policies voted upon. Leadership of the government and all members of the bureaucracy are determined by the voting population.

World Law (L)
