Silverring is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and both non-agricultural and preindustrial in nature.

  • These worldlets warrant hazardous environment precautions.
  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • The worldlets are, for the most part, unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
  • These worldlets are working towards being an industrial world but lack an adequate workforce to do so.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Pryden Subsector of Lishun Sector in the Domain of Antares.
  • This world has an Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.

History & Background / Dossier[edit]

In the later part of the Long Night and the first century of the Third Imperium, Silverring (then named Guuurduu) was a local power, controlling the Autarchy of Guuurduu. Despite the fact that the mainworld is an asteroid belt, the system enjoyed the benefits of a pair of worlds capable of sustaining life. During the Long Night Guuurduu never lost the ability for in-system travel, and was able to ensure a supply of food, water, and oxygen, at a time when most system belts were rapidly depopulated. Nonetheless, Guuurduu lost the ability to build jump drives by -1600. Guuurduu might have remained this way until formally contacted by the Imperium, or another of the growing interstellar states, had it not been for a fortuitous discovery on one of the moons of the system's most distant planet. This discovery was a nearly intact ship from the late Rule of Man era.

The eventual nine-system Autarchy of Guuurduu retained its power through monopolising of technology and military force. In 72, however, the Third Imperium gifted jump technology to Olny, encouraging an independence movement that before long saw a full-scale uprising against Guuurduu.

Imperial Landed Nobility[edit]

Silverring, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the fiefdom of a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversees affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.

World Starport[edit]

Silverring 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 Technology Level[edit]

Silverring possesses a Technology Level of TL–15 or TL-F in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government[edit]

Silverring is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.
