Toraago 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.
- It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Rure Subsector of Gushemege Sector in the Domain of Vland.
- This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
Native Lifeforms[edit]
The air is tainted by spherospores of a local fungus.
- Infection can be avoided with the use of a normal respirator mask and skin suit.
- The fungus will need two weeks to grow within the lungs of the victim. Most victims die within the next four weeks by neurotoxins of the fungus, if not treated.
- The common therapy was developed by the Giiguuglum race of Seaport and is available in Toraago and some other systems in Gushemege.
- Travellers are advised to apply for medical check once a week and Giiguuglum therapy in the downport on the day of departure. Giiguuglum, Vapethi and local Jonkeereen are immune to the fungus.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Toraago was settled after the Pacification Campaigns and is know for exporting "SuSAG Better than Life" and other neural stimulation soap operas.
A Jonkeereen breeding plant provides livestock and agricultural workers adopted to the tainted atmosphere.
Local Nobility[edit]
Toraago, 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 estate of a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversees affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial knight, the Imperial representative to the world.
- It holds the estate of an Imperial baronet.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Toraago has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World Population (P)[edit]
Toraago has a population of 70,000 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.

World Government (G)[edit]
Toraago is governed by a Corporate Polity, having a single corporation with a typical corporate structure as a government. Essentially, this is a "company town" (or world). The typical corporate-run world usually has a single purpose. Examples include mining, agriculture, or other kinds of resource extraction. But rather than a simple base of operations, there are facilities for housing workers and their families, including hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure. How, or if, the children of the workers are incorporated into the workforce varies with companies. The corporation running the world may be a subsidiary of a larger interstellar corporation.
Cooperate Ownership Government :
- Schunamann und Sohn, AG (SuSAG LIC): 33%
- Usdiki / Lancian Farmers Bank: 33%
- Imparlu / University of Imaparlu: 33%
- 1% citizen share
World Military[edit]
Most Lancians do not like the idea of permanent military forces, and even less the idea of serving in them. As a result, most standing forces, the Pulehov, are small and often composed of non-Lancians. In times of war, the combined Lancian community -- the peoples' army, the Silkku -- is the ultimate defense of this and other Lancian worlds.
Rebellion Era[edit]
In the Imperial time Toraago was owned by the Toraago "Better than Life" company, a hidden psionic institute, working under cover of SuSAG.
When funding stopped in 1125 the company had to sell most of its TL–A equipment to a competitor in Usdiki, and to restructure the economy to agricultural production, using geneered plants from the SuSAG stock, for future cover.
New Era[edit]
When Virus arrived, it found nothing to infect other than some satellites orbiting the main worlds - the weather forecasts network.
Toraago is still in SuSAG corporate ownership and is considered as a refugee world for displaced people from the Wilds. Its class A starport is one of the busiest places in the Regency, as Toraago is one of the main suppliers for life support systems and food. BTL packs showing the SuSAG logo are produced in a large variety of flavors. Price is 7200Cr for a 28mq container.
Recontact with the Regency SuSAG headquarters, in 1145 when delivering the CABAl project, provided the system with with a growing wealth. Toraago is now the official headquarters for all SuSAG operations trailing and rimwards of Gushemege.
Toraago hosted the first JumpPort as an orbiter for 3 years and is currently catering the Moot of JumpPorts every 12 years.
