Mainworld Data

Among the world's many resources was one of the largest deposits of Zuchai crystals found within the Imperial core. Unfortunately most of these resources have now been recovered. When first discovered, crystals could even be found in surface deposits. Now conventional mining is required in order to obtain the remnants of this valuable commodity.

Mainworld Size (S)

Jarmael is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Jarmael has a pressure of less than 0.1 atmospheres which requires the use of a Vacc Suit. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Jarmael has 15-25% of its surface covered by liquid water or ice. There may be a few small seas. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are Hell Worlds or Poor Worlds depending on their atmosphere.

History and Background

During Second Imperium times this world was host to a Scout Base.

Unlike many systems in the Pact Subsector, Jarmael is primarily Vilani. This is due to the mining presence during the Ziru Sirka period and the continued presence of an effective monopoly system operated by the miners and their families which has prevented intrusion.

World Starport (Sp)

Jarmael 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.
