History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

This world is underpopulated, with its primary function being to host a Lorean Naval Base and shipyard. There is no actual legal claim outside the port facilities; a rare spot of lawlessness in the authoritarian Hegemony.

World Starport[edit]

U 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 Population (P)[edit]

U has a population of 9,000 sophonts (thousands).

  • This is a Low Population World and the population would be too low to sustain itself without a little outside assistance. This may represent the home base of a sizable but mostly transient population such as the base of a major starship expedition, the last generation of a dying colony, the first generation of a new colony, or a large outpost that will probably evolve into a colony if not stopped.

World Demographics[edit]

  • Arzula Humaniti
    • The Arzula are dominantly Vilani in ancestry, with strong 'minor notes' of Solomani Slavic and Arabic heritages.

World Languages[edit]

World Technology Level (TL)[edit]

U possesses a Technology Level of TL–12 or TL-C in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government (G)[edit]

U has no central government or substantial government apparatus; an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.

World Military[edit]

No information yet available.

World Law Level (L)[edit]

U has no law in practice. It is an Anarchy. On many worlds, this by itself justifies an Amber Zone advisory. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.

World Culture[edit]

  • Culturally, Arzula are best described as a blend of
    • A Vilani conformity and caution,
    • A Solomani taste for relentless expansionism and racial supremacy, and
    • A very old-school political messianic authoritarianism.
