Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Iur has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. While a Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as 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.

• The planet has been eco-engineered to enable thousands of crops to be grown in its soil. The dense atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect which enhances the growth rate. The only side effect to the altered ecosystem has been the atmospheric taint caused by mutated spores. These spores cause migraine-like attacks in Aslan and euphoria in Humans. Filter masks are worn at all times.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Iur has 55-65% of its surface covered by liquid water. It has significant large liquid bodies. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History and background

Iur is a major manufacturer of pharmaceuticals for Feathered Serpent Pharmaceuticals. While the planet is owned by Feathered Serpent, they have allowed the workers to rule themselves through a legislative council made up of elected guild representatives.

Iur also has acquired a squatter colony consisting of drug addicts and wire heads from throughout the spinward subectors who are attracted to the free buzz.

World Starport (Sp)

Iur 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 Population (P)

Iur has a population of 40,000 sophonts (tens of thousands).

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