History & Background (Dossier)

Kakhiw is a rich, important agricultural world of some importance to the Aslan Hierate. Both Aslan and Droyne inhabit Kakhiw.

  • Nearly a third of the planet's ten million inhabitants are Droyne loyal to the Okakhiwao clan.
  • The Droyne settlement, Nadaybthu, prospered before the Aslan's coming, but cooperation between races has done even more to bolster the local economy.

World Starport (Sp)

Kakhiw 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.
