Jejant is a nonindustrial hellworld with a population struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often develop intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Abidal Subsector of Halcyon Sector.


Description / Astrography & Planetology

Jejant lies on the Scybrian Run Star Lane.

Jejant has a solitary primary star.

System Data

The system primary is Juno, an ordinary orange main sequence star. It retains a family of two inner rocky worlds. Lostallo, a small gas giant, orbits in Juno's habitable zone; Jejant is its largest satellite. Three small rocky worlds, two large gas giants, and a final rocky exotic atmosphere world form the outer system. The fringe of the system is marked by two planetoid belts (the Inner Sparkles and the Outer Sparkles), which contain a large number of icy bodies. Many of the worlds in the system retain families of satellites.

History & Background / Dossier

Jejant (2611 Halcyon), the largest moon of the system's inner gas giant, is largely arid, dust-scoured outback. The majority of the population inhabits a single sprawling equatorial city lying on the shores of the world's only major sea and largely subsists on mining. Rumours persist of networks of caverns deep in the outback, filled with bizarre ecosystems and caches of mineral riches

World Starport

Jejant has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Technology Level

Jejant possesses a Technology Level of TL–9.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics and satellite communication and data networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fusion power.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
    • Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
    • FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.

World Government

Jejant is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is by representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referenda, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.
