Zamoran is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• Zamoran is also known as Draykoysap.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Two Little Subsector of Reft Sector.

• This world-system has a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.
• About 60% of the population is composed of baseline humans and other non-human sophonts (notably Tezcat).
• About 40% of the population is composed of Droyne.

Description (Planetology)

Mainworld Data

Mainworld Size (S)

Zamoran is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Zamoran has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Zamoran has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History

A pastoral planet originally inhabited by the Droyne, which came to host Human and Tezcat settlements also.

There is evidence of a nuclear war on Zamoran 10,000 years ago, between Droyne and Human communities (both presumably having inhabited the world since the Ancients' Final War).

As the planet left its ice age, Humans spread south after the retreating ice, and Droyne north. There are no records of an agreement, but the two species seem to have both decided that there was plenty of land and resources to be had without getting into competition that might lead to another war.

Zamoran was discovered in 260 by the Tezcat, who suffered a xenophobic reaction to the Droyne who greeted them. Subsequent Tezcat attention was aggressive. Waves of zealous crusaders arrived from their homeworld of Aum-rhar. After 150 years of war, Droyne communities were driven out of the lands the new arrivals claimed, and the planet's equatorial regions became part of the Solar Hegemony of the Tezcat.

World Starport (St)

Zamoran 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)

Zamoran has a population of 9,000,000 sophonts (millions).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

World Demographics

• Droyne
• Human
• Tezcat

Roughly 700,000 Humans dwell mostly in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere has less useable land, and is home to an estimated 400,000 Droyne. Tezcat settlements are currently equatorial.

World Languages

• A'Prur
• Local Human language
• Oynprith
  • Droyne Languages: Oynprith is a ceremonial and ritualistic language apparently universal among Droyne communities. Other languages are used in casual day-to-day affairs.

World Technology Level (T)

Zamoran possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
  • Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
  • Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-1.

World Government (G)

Zamoran has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.
