System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x2 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x3 gas giants.

Native Lifeforms

The world has primitive microscopic multi-cellular native life occupying a few ecological niches.

Mainworld Data

Sisag is an ancient world, one that formerly orbited in the pre-giant star's outer system. When the star entered the giant stage of its evolution, Sisag became far more temperate and oceans began to form from melted subsurface ice. The world had been home to hardy microscopic lifeforms for most of its existence and these adapted to the new conditions, though the most advanced of them are photosynthetic slimes and microscopic multicellular worms.

Mainworld Size (S)

Sisag is a Meso World between 5,600km and 7,200km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.32G and 0.46G. The horizon will appear about 3.6km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Sisag has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Respirator Combination Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

• Sisag has a very low percentage of oxygen.
• Cyanobacteria within the oceans are gradually changing the atmospheric composition.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Sisag has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

World Starport (St)

Sisag 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.

Sisag has a population of 8,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).

• High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.

• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
  • Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
  • Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-1.
