Native Lifeforms[edit]

Abundant native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

Native Sophont (NIL)[edit]

Urlich's Find is the homeworld of the Little Cousins, a minor race resembling the Aslan who are currently at a Bronze Age level of technological development.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

For reasons unknown to Humans, the native sophont culture is afforded a great deal of respect by Aslan. Aslan parties visiting Ulrich's Find are careful not to cause offence, and are often treated to a hunting party and feast by the race they call their "little cousins". Relations are amicable, although the Aslan apparently have no interest in colonising Urlich's Find and the locals don't want to progress beyond the stone age.

Urlich was presumably a Human explorer, but little is known about this person.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date.

  • Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Urlich's Find does not have a starport. The Class X Starport is an indication that no starport exists in the system. There are no facilities or services available, and no site marked for landing.

World Population (P)[edit]

Urlich's Find has a population of 40,000,000 sophonts (tens of millions).

  • The population almost entirely consists of Little Cousins, a minor race physically resembling Aslan.
  • The population level is an estimate; the native population is spread across the whole globe.

Urbanization[edit]

Most of the population live in nomadic tribal groups, hunting game and foraging for edible plants. In some coastal areas small city-states have sprung up, protected by walls and located close to exploitable resources such as copper and tin. These settlements are supported by agriculture and aquaculture.

World Languages[edit]

World Technology Level (TL)[edit]

TL-1 Merchant Ship
TL-1 Fishing Vessel
TL-1 Warship

Urlich's Find possesses a Technology Level of TL–1.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Runners or beast relay and long distance signaling such as the heliograph and semaphore.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Muscle power and water wheels.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:

World Government (G)[edit]

Urlich's Find 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 Law (L)[edit]

Urlich's Find has a low law level. 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. Body pistols, explosives, and poison gas are typically regulated or prohibited.
