Stalwart is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a member of the Luriani Cultural Association, a sub-polity of the Third Imperium, located in the Spearhead Subsector of Ley Sector.

Imperial High / Landed Nobility[edit]

Stalwart, 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[edit]

Stalwart 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.

World Population (P)[edit]

Stalwart has a population of 100,000 sophonts (hundreds of thousands).

  • This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

World Demographics[edit]

The inhabitants are Luriani. Note that some of these may be biological Solomani or Vilani with cultural Luriani heritage.

The Solomani, known as Veresti Dtareen (Terran Defenders) descend from Terran soldiers and administrators of the Rule of Man stranded during the Long Night, while the Vilani are known as Mmarislusant (Victims of History), and descend from stranded Vilani colonists. Both groups have absorbed much of Luriani culture and are seen both by themselves and the natives as being genuine Luriani.

World Languages[edit]

Aaca is short-form for Aaeebuany't' limmisdasca.

Verasti Dtareen speak a variant of Anglic known as Luriani Anglic or "Lurglic", while the Mmarislusant retain their language of Old High Vilani. The Luriani Cultural Association expends considerable effort to ensure that all three languages remain in use.

World Technology Level[edit]

Stalwart possesses a Technology Level of TL–11 or TL-B in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government[edit]

Stalwart is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is by representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referenda, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.

World Military[edit]

World Law[edit]

  • Luriani like their police close to the communities they serve, and there is normally at least one community verasrasti (constable) per 800 individuals. They are expected to be familiar with the people they police.
  • In addition to the normal law enforcement services, the Iadtlu militia is available to deal with emergencies in the case of either serious unrest or disaster.
  • Justice and punishment are handled by trained arbiters, using an inquisitorial legal system. Both prosecution and defence are normally handled by state-employed advocates.
  • The Luriani do not use capital punishment, nor can the Imperium apply the death penalty on a Luriani world for crimes against Imperial justice.

World Economy[edit]

Trade Data[edit]

World Culture[edit]

The complex and seemingly all-pervasive nature of Luriani etiquette is one of the mechanisms they employ to moderate their emotionally volatile natures. The Solomani and Vilani minority populations -- the Verasti Dtareen and Mmarislusant -- adopted the same code of conduct.
