World Starport

Zeko has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

World Languages

• Hiver Sign Language
• Gurvin
  • Non-Hiver locals will typically speak Gurvin augmented with a pidgin of local languages and Ithkluri, to provide ambiguity and metaphor lacking from the standard Gurvin vocabulary.

Urbanization

Hivers are fond of rounded shapes, domes, spheres and non-Euclidian architecture. This is ironic in that many schools of Hiver starship construction are focused around the opposite -- extremely square, boxy ships.

• Hivers like small, cramped domiciles with defined spaces and solid walls. Much of a Hiver nest is subterranean.
• Pet Snohl may be found in the deeper nests.

World Technology Level

Zeko possesses a Technology Level of TL–6.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone, radio, and television.
