System Data

Fimorda-Fieral System

Fimorda, the system primary, is an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 2.584 Sols, a mass of 1.196 Sols, and a diameter of 1.742 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a trace atmosphere worldlet, (II) a vacuum worldlet, (III) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, and (IV) a sparse stony planetoid belt. (V) Fieral orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (VI) a ringed large gas giant and (VII) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Galadek Subsystem

The companion is Galadak, a tiny red dwarf star that orbits Fimorda at approximately 150 AU (orbital position (XII), 22.4 billion km). It has a luminosity of 0.00054 Sols, a mass of 0.07 Sols, and a diameter of 91,500 km. (I) a thin atmosphere radworld, (II) a trace atmosphere iceworld, (III) a standard atmosphere bigworld, (IV) a sparse icy planetoid belt, (V) a small ice giant, and (VI) an exotic atmosphere bigworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(V) Fieral

(V) Fieral is designated the mainworld. It orbits Fimorda at a mean distance of 1.63 AU (243.8 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 1 year 330 days and a rotation period of 22.5 hours. The axial tilt is 21 degrees. Fieral has a diameter of 13,128 km, a density of 5.70 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 1.06 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Dense, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 1.68 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen, 22% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by spores and pollens of organic origin. Approximately 44% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 28°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and strong weather systems driven by the star and the seas roll across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Satellites

Fieral retains two natural satellites, a small thin atmosphere world named Guvak and an ice capped vacuum moon named Bolodor:

(Va) Guvak (UWP Y322000-0, orbiting World at 14 Diameters/184,000 km)
(Vb) Bolodor (UWP Y201000-0, orbiting World at 55 Diameters/722,000 km)

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 541 million km², Land surface area: 303 million km², Water surface area: 238 million km².

Mainworld Geography & Topography

The equatorial regions of the world are covered in lakes and seas of liquid water. The polar regions are rugged and arid. The Southern hemisphere, which has more large bodies of open water, is generally more hospitable.

Native Lifeforms

Fieral has extensive native life. The temperate zones are dominated by wetlands and forests, gradually giving way to broad temperate grasslands and arid polar deserts. Almost all of the native flora produces spores that saturate the atmosphere - spore concentrations are highest around the equator. Many large animals have elongated or serpentine body forms.

History & Background / Dossier

No information yet available.

World Starport

Fieral 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.

World Technology Level

Fieral possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
    • Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
    • Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
    • Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

World Government

Fieral is governed by a Participatory Democracy where eligible voters determine laws and policy. What determines an eligible voter varies. There may be smaller councils or regional bodies to draft the policies voted upon. Leadership of the government and all members of the bureaucracy are determined by the voting population.

World Economy

  • Resources: A (Abundant)
  • Labor: 6 (Millions)
  • Infrastructure: A (Extensive)
  • Efficiency: +3 (Improved)

World Demographics

Population: 72,300,000

  • Meroquan: (indigenous NIL): 70.4 million (97.37% of the population), widely dispersed across the world.
  • Native Non-Human Races:
    • Hoppers: 650,000 (0.89% of the population), concentrated within hives close to human communities.
    • Esaran: 150,000 (0.21% of the population), widely dispersed across the world.
    • Temelik: approximately 10,000 (less than 0.01% of the population), widely dispersed across the world.

  • Acceptance: 7 (Aloof)
  • Strangeness: 8 (alien but familiar)
  • Symbols: A (bizarre, hidden meanings, ritual)

Urbanization

Large scale urban areas are uncommon on Fieral. Meroquan prefer to live in relatively isolated family estates, which are themselves clustered into broad areas that share a common language, culture and heritage.
