Zeycude is a Meso World between 5,600km and 7,200km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.32G and 0.46G. The horizon will appear about 3.6km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Zeycude has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The entire population of this world lives on huge mining and manufacturing crawlers that scour this mineral-rich world for resources to be made into exportable products. These roving communities are technically answerable to no one, and the sole governing authority is a council that runs the downport.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Zeycude has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features 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.
