Staoiya is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.
- 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 is part of the Aslan Hierate, as a vassal clan dominate, in the Tuistao Subsector of Riftspan Reaches Sector.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
This world lies on the edge of the Great Rift.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]
Staoiya has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. While a Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Native Lifeforms[edit]
Despite its tainted atmosphere, Staoiya supports a number of edible plants and is a potential breadbasket for surrounding worlds; hence why several clans are keen to gain control of its resources.
Complex animal life is also found here, and hunting safaris are common.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Staoiya is a disputed system that has recently changed hands several times, usually after bitter ground fighting.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Staoiya 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.
- Although Staoiya is a hazardous place to visit, the orbital port is safe enough for outsiders so long as they are not supporting any of the warring clans. By mutual agreement, the highport is off-limits for military action, although assassins may still be employed.
World Population (P)[edit]
Staoiya has a population of 50,000 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 population consists of Aslan.
World Languages[edit]
- Trokh: The universal language of the modern Aslan monoculture.
- Aslan Languages: Note that some Aslan clans retain obscure or archaic languages for personal use in addition to Trokh.
World Government (G)[edit]
Staoiya is governed by Self-Perpetuating Oligarchy. A single family or small group provides the leadership and important positions within the government. These positions are inherited by members of the group or by their relatives. The organization may be a monarchy, with titles passed to family members, or a plutocracy where inheritance of the family fortune includes government position. Alternatively, the organization may be a more typical government apparatus, only with positions of power inherited.
