History-Era: Milieu 990

Askaath is seen as a paradise playground for the rich. While landing on the planet is no more difficult than most other worlds, customs searches are always thorough. This is combined with tight laws restricting what is allowed to be imported. Property costs are incredibly high with a small house costing megacredits. No heavy industry is allowed on the planet although several luxury foodstuffs and woods are available. There is also quite a large and successful entertainment industry.

Era: Milieu 1116

Askaath has become a major port of call, with a much higher population and technological level than was the case 200 years ago.

Zowie 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.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Zowie Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector.
