Juess 0917 E8609DC-9 De Hi 100 So G0 V G2 V
There are occasional planets in explored space on which robots are worshipped. Among these is Juess (Spica 0917). After a disaterous internecine struggle for power, when the world suffered from a balkanized governement, knowledge of the advanced technologies of the inhabitants was lost. Since Juess is a desert world, the remaining robots were revered as "Providers" and "Life-givers". They are carefully tended by a priestly class which has no real understanding of the technology driving the robots. On the occasions when one of these robots ceases to function, the "death" of the god is mourned, and citizens may be offered as sacrifices to appease the other gods.
Note: Juess is misspelled in the SunBane UWP lists for Spica sector as "Hyess".
