Zalgvadzokh has a very thin atmosphere and no surface water. The system has a population between one and 10 million sophonts. This system serves as the capital for the subsector. The governance of this world is from Zighagnagvaen (Knoellighz 1937). It is a member of Ascendancy Pact in the Raelas Subsector of Knoellighz Sector.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Two million scientists, technicians, planetary staff and patent brokers occupy the world known as Zalgvadzokh, a worthy think-tank competitor to Serue (Knoellighz 1221) at TL–15. A member of the Ascendancy Pact in Raelas Subsector, this world does not suffer the same high Law and morals that Serue seems to uphold.

Experiments conducted in the cloistered laboratories and testing grounds on the desert surface of Zalghadzokh allowed the colony world to rise quickly from TL–11 to TL–13 in a meteoric, if somewhat hazardous, climb. Breakthroughs (and even setbacks) quickened the Ascendancy Pact's momentum in its expansion Coreward between its rivals, the Infinity League and the Democracy of Greats, only to crash against the Crystal Wall of the Zhodani Consulate.

The original colony, belonging to Zighagnagvaen (Knoellighz 1937) immediately gained collective Charisma in furthering the Ascendancy Pact's ambition and clout as the fastest-growing polity as all expanded Coreward towards Ghoekhnael Sector. Packs of learned Vargr are collected under their banner specialties in scientific study. The world was quickly acknowledged as the subsector Capital (Cp) shortly after it rose to its current Tech Level and upgraded to an A-rated Highport (c.1100). The Highport's upgrade was a business transaction -- for patented and licensed blueprints and plans -- with Ronaeksourrgh (Knoellighz 1838) instead of competitor Uosa (Knoellighz 2237), who did not seem to mind for reasons of its own. Orbital station components were assembled by technicians overseeing the arriving modules.

Naturally, Zighagnagvaen has become rich with income taxes from its scientific colony testing grounds. It was this income that allowed the homeworld to complete its Naval Base and invite Ascendancy Pact military vessels to make port there, further securing the Agricultural world.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Zalgvadzokh 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.

  • Vargr starports reflect the variety of Vargr architecture, with many disparate styles of building, each having their own unique ornamentation and gaudy colour scheme, and all competing for the attention of the onlooker. Emblems for the major shipping lines and port facilities abound.
