History and Background

Dawntide is considered one of the Boutique Worlds.

World Starport

Dawntide 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

Dawntide possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.

Note that Dawntide's low technology level does not reflect the resorts on the planet accurately. These can range from primitive to Imperial high technology levels up to TL-15, depending on the clientele they cater to.

World Government

Dawntide is governed by Self-Perpetuating Oligarchy. A single family or small group provides the leadership and important positions in the government. These positions are inherited by member of the group or their family members. The organization may be a monarchy, with titles passed to family members, or a plutocracy where inheritance of the family fortune includes government position. Alternatively, the organization may be a more typical government apparatus, only with positions of power inherited.
