Tsahrroek has both an unbreathably thin atmosphere and a lack of surface water making habitation by sophonts difficult. The system has a population between 10,000 and 10 million, lacking the industrial base to be completely self-supporting. This system serves as the capital for the subsector. It is a member of Julian Protectorate in the Tsahrroek Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector and in the Rukadukaz Republic. 20% of the world's population is the Major Race Vargr.

Astrography and Planetology[edit]

This world is part of the Tsahrroek-Kourae Cluster.

History and Background[edit]

This system's population has been annihilated twice, first during the Julian War (175-191) and later in 332 during a famous revolt, when the sole city of the world, Mnosa'oudz, was nuked. The martyrdom of most of the planet's population in a revolt against Ikonic tyranny has placed Tsahrroek in an important position in local politics, and is one reason why the world is currently the capital of the Rukadukaz Republic.

Tsahrroek is one of the Rukadukaz Notable Worlds.

World Starport[edit]

Tsahrroek 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 Timeline[edit]

Major events that have affected this world and the wider region that it lies within include the following:

  • -1711: Near the end of the Vargr Pillaging, the proto-Ovaghoun conquer the world of Ikon.
    • Over time, the local Vilani culturally overrun their Vargr overlords, reshaping the Ovaghoun Vargr into a distinct, almost hybridised culture.
  • -55: The Mmoannikh Accords between representatives of Logaksu Vargr and Ovaghoun Vargr societies ends a series of conflicts between the two cultures.
    • The Accords are rejected by the central Ikonaz government, leading to a shattering of the unity of the Ovaghoun.
  • 175-191: The Julian War, which sees numerous attacks on Ikon, all of which fail in breaking the homeworld of the Ovaghoun.
    • Tsahrroek is depopulated during the fighting.
    • The Ikonaz become a prominent member bloc of the Julian Protectorate.
  • 332: The population of Tsahrroek revolt against the Ikonaz government, and are wiped out in response -- the second time the world has been depopulated.
  • Circa 723: The Association of Good Wolves, the current government of Ikon, encourages the emigration of the working (i.e. Irilitok Vargr) classes to other, nearby worlds -- going so far as to subsidise 70% of the cost involved.
  • Circa 937-940: The Fellowship of Nobles, the current Ikonaz government, collapses.
  • 942: The Julian Protectorate and the Hegemony of Lorean formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Protectorate.
    • The Rukadukaz insist upon a 'buffer zone' of neutral systems between their territory and the Loreans.
