Native Lifeforms: Mosses & Fungi

The only native life consists of millions of different types of mosses and fungi as well as edible worms that form the staple diet. Most of the inhabitants are experts in the preparation and use of hallucinogenics made from the worm excretions and various fungi. Rumor has it that there is a secret sect of Cteonan's assassins who practice the art of undetectable poisoning. For most people their only contact with the botanical arts of Anshaar is when they consume the sacred fungus Nanactl at the Festival of the Dead.

History and background

Colonized by natives from the Andes near the end of the Rule of Man, the local people have physically adapted to the extremely thin atmosphere.

World Starport (Sp)

Anshaar 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.

World Population (P)

Anshaar has a population of 6,000 sophonts (thousands).

• This is a Low Population World and the population would be too low to sustain itself without a little outside assistance. This may represent the home base of a sizable but mostly transient population such as the base of a major starship expedition, the last generation of a dying colony, the first generation of a new colony, or a large outpost that will probably evolve into a colony if not stopped.

Demographics

There are two broad categories of citizen within the Amec Trade Protectorate:

• The Sun-born, which consists of the nobility, their families, courtesans, and Cuaupilli (those who have successfully undertaken the adolescent Test of Worth).
• The Amtlan, which includes the Maceualli ("tribute" or protected ones) who toil on behalf of their lord, and the Pochteca or independent merchants.

World Languages

• Anglic
• Nahuatl
• Sall

The planet's Nahuatl name is Cteonanacatl.

Although the current Nahuatl designation is not official, it is included in order to assist travellers who may find it beneficial to use this planetary designation while travelling within the Federation. It is strongly recommended that visitors obtain a good quality translator MemClip prior to entering Federation space. INDISS produce a high quality Galanglic-Nahuatl two-way clip available from all good data libraries, price Cr. 150 rrp.

Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Light assault weapons, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.

• One point of severity is that adultery carries the death penalty on Anshaar.
• The wise men known as Tlamatinime act as both lawyer (there are no actual lawyers in Amec Protectorate space) and judge.

World Economy

Currency is the Quetzal.

Each planet within the Amec Protectorate must pay the Tlatoani a tribute (originally it was a proper tithe of 10% of overall production but over the years it increased to 12%).

• The local bureaucracy retains 6% while the other 6% is sold under the AzTec label to help maintain the court and pay for the Amec Navy.
