History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Tyokh is a hot, steamy jungle planet with the highest population of any world in the subsector.

Tyokh is dominated by Clan Ahroay'if, who control roughly sixty percent of the trade, with the balance under the control of half-a-dozen other clans.

Hundreds of corporations have offices and outposts on Tyokh, and an Aslan criminal organization called the Rea'a Hrilkhir controls the planet's black markets.

World Starport[edit]

Tyokh 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.

World Population (P)[edit]

Tyokh has a population of 20,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).

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.

Urbanization[edit]

Aslan architecture tends to the organic and the rounded. They favour artistry over efficiency in the design of their buildings -- every Aslan structure is different. Even in mass-produced housing, residents will strive to make their territory uniquely theirs.

  • Since Aslan descend from predators and enjoy open terrain, their buildings often feature both open rooms of great size and a number of concealed rooms, balconies, hidden passageways and hideaways.
