Era: New Era
Sherad is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and barren in nature with no overt population, government, or law level.
- These worldlets would warrant hazardous environment precautions if anyone lived here.
- They could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so... This world was once settled and developed, but the inhabitants have either died off or left leaving behind the remnants of their civilization. It is a unclaimed Non-Aligned world in the Atsah Subsector of Deneb Sector.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
This system is part of the Atadl Cluster.
Stellar Data[edit]
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The Sherad Asteroid Group is the last starport on the xboat route leading coreward from the Deneb Sector.
Sherad was settled soon after the founding of the Third Imperium, and by 100 the world helped form a strong industrial base in Atsah Subsector. In 200 the subsector was admitted into the Imperium.
In the 600s Sherad was specifically chosen by Emperess Arbellatra herself for the xboat route entering Deneb, in part to voice her discontent at more powerful worlds in Atsah that had not joined the Imperium.
Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]
Sherad, as a member world of the Third Imperium has a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility who acts as an Imperial representative to the world.
World Starport (St)[edit]
Sherad 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]
Sherad has a population of 90,000 sophonts (tens of thousands).
- This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referenda, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.

Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. All firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
World Economy[edit]
Lurent planetoid ships may be found, trading, in the inner system; or else in the system’s Oort clouds, refuelling.
Tukera Lines operates offices and maintenance facilities out of Sherad.
