Khaguu is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • In a technological universe, societies without industrial capability generally suffer as nearly all manufactured and high tech goods must be brought in at significant cost.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.

Description

Khaguu is poor in critical natural resources and is totally unable to support its three-quarters of a million inhabitants without substantial imports. Over the years the elite ruling council has encouraged free trade with minimal trade laws and low port taxes. The populace has gradually acquired a very friendly attitude to traders (and vistors) of all races.

Ironically though, a trader brought in Tanzak's Plague in 1113, causing such a rapid loss of life the council was forced to impose a tight system of medical checks on all newcomers to Khaguu. Initial tests are performed as part of the port inspection. Visitors wishing to leave the port area are required to undergo a very extensive examination using high-tech medical kit. This often picks up current and potential ailments including those of which the patient is unaware. These tests are free, so some visitors take advantage of the medical scans.

The tiny planet's low gravity makes many of it's inhabitants very light-limbed and, despite the use of mechanical and gravitic devices to produce higher gravity in certain areas, most inhabitants can not travel off world without a month or so of strenuous physical training.

Khaguu is unusual in retaining a trace atmosphere despite its small size. This is produced by the release of tiny amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases from porous, chemically-laden rocks affected by minor but constant volcanic activity.

History & Background

During the Long Night this world was named Kaid.
