History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Vala has been owned by Aursis (Core 1134) since its colonization in 57. The world remains somewhat backward and dependent on Aursan technology.

World Starport[edit]

Vala has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
