History & Background (Dossier)

Syoakh is an earth-like world located in the Goertel Subsector of the Trojan Reach.

• The world is the capital of of the Glorious Empire and contains an independent base.

World Starport (Sp)

Syoakh 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 Culture

Culturally, Syoakh is as important to the Aslan of the Empire as Kusyu is to the Aslan Hierate.

• Syoakh society is dominated by the government and the military, and at the head of all is the Grand Emperor, which is not a hereditary title: any leader of a pride may challenge the sitting Emperor to trial by combat.
• In truth, though, the military camps on the outer islands of the mainworld and in orbit are far more important to the running of the Glorious Empire.

Urbanization

The city and starport of Syoakh are truly beautiful and one of the best examples of high-Aslan art outside the Hierate.

• The city is mostly taken up with bureaucracy and the machinery of government.
• The Glorious Empire is absurdly centralized and virtually every non-military decision of note is recorded by clerks on Syoakh.

Demographics

• The ratio of Aslan to human on Syoakh is more than nine to one; the few humans are ceremonial slaves and servants.

Languages

• Hankakho
• Trokh
