History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

This was one of the "Wayward Worlds", members of the Sylean Federation who chose to reject the offer of membership in the Third Imperium. Cleon Zhunastu accepted their decision, but as the Imperium grew, the Wayward Worlds became increasingly isolated and were forced to accept Imperial membership. Many of the Wayward Worlds retained their original names for many years before being renamed one-by-one in an attempt to shed the burden of their "traitorous" past. Unrair became Thass.

World Starport[edit]

Thass 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.
